I'm not really sure what to call Norman. He's evil, sure, but there's much more to him; in fact, he might be the ultimate expression of Marvel's complex concept of a villain, or a character in general, in that they've never really gone in for the DC "good vs. evil" thing. (Conflict in the MU is usually more about competing interests.)
Always liked this story. But how does Norman's MASK sweat?
Also, been wondering in THUNDERBOLTS for a long time who Moonstone reminds me of. Then I heard the voice. Now I know. Morgan Fairchild.
