Silver Surfer: Devolution

The Silver Surfer is a character created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby in the sixties. In short, he is the herald of an almost all powerful entity that eats planets. A large part of the pathos for this character has to do with his internal fight between being caring and human and being aloft and distant. Silver Surfer: Devolution is the n^th turning of the wheel in this pathos, with a slight twist. In previous stories, The Surfer had been depowered, but had not stopped being The Surfer. In this story he goes back to being Norrin Radd and feels the consequences of being human in full blast mode. The idea is nice and Pak has a good history of written great super-heroes yarns. However, this time around, the writting does not quite live up to the idea. There are areas where the story feels rushed and there are other areas where you can actually "see the seams" of the whole thing. The final script needed a final polishing that it was not given. The art is not exactly my cup of tea, but those of you who enjoy Steve Segovia will enjoy it too.
