Broken Frontier

Since his debut in the pages of Fantastic Four, the Silver Surfer has been one of the most enigmatic and fascinating characters in Marvel Comics lore, but is this the end of the road for the former herald of Galactus? In Silver Surfer: Requiem #1 (of 4), the sentinel of the spaceways journeys to Earth to consult some old friends—the Fantastic Four—about something that just may mean the end of his galaxy spanning journey. This heartfelt tale of a lone man’s quest to complete his final voyage is written by the celebrated sci-fi and superhero scribe J. Michael Straczynski (AMAZING SPIDER-MAN, Babylon 5), featuring gorgeous painted art by Esad Ribic (LOKI).

These two creators will take you on a journey throughout the stars and within one man’s soul, as the Silver Surfer must come to term with the idea that he may soon be no more. Others come and go, but the Silver Surfer is eternal…or is he?

Don’t miss out on the Surfer’s earliest solo adventures in the upcoming Silver Surfer Omnibus Vol.1 HC and Essential Silver Surfer Vol.2 TPB—with creators like Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, how can you go wrong?
