Devilman: The Classic Collection Vol. 2
by Go Nagai
I have mixed feelings about this. The concept is still great, but the execution is lacking. The book begins with more time travel that fails to add anything to the overall narrative. Then we finally move forward with the beginning of the end, with an unnecessary introduction by a 4th wall breaking Akira. This part of the story is great and really could have been fleshed out more. When we get to the final chapter, though, it is jarring. We are told that it's now 20 years later, we get scant exposition with no dialog, and just a series of splash pages. They look nice, but it's anticlimactic. The resolution is absolutely what it needs to be, though, and it should never be changed. It's everything leading up to it that leaves it lacking.
