"All superheroes get their powers from somewhere. A radioactive spider
bite. A science experiment gone awry. I got mine from a surfing accident
in Tofino. The ultimate wipeout. I woke up with the most powerful mind
on the planet, but a body like a wet paper bag...."
Meet Westlake Soul, a 23-year-old former surfing champion. A loving son
and brother. But if you think he's just a regular dude, think again;
Westlake is in a permanent vegetative state. He can't move, has no
response to stimuli, and can only communicate with Hub, the faithful
family dog. And like all superheroes, Westlake has an archenemy: Dr.
Quietusa, nightmarish embodiment of Death itself. Westlake dreams of a
normal life of surfing and loving again. But time is running out; Dr.
Quietus is getting closer, and stronger. Can Westlake use his superbrain
to recover--to slip his enemy's cold embrace before it's too late?
