Now, exiled upon Earth, he struggles to understand the beauty and humanity of mortal men, and nobly seeks to heal the rifts that separate man from his brothers. Created by the titanic team of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby in the pages of FANTASTIC FOUR, the Silver Surfer went on to become one of the most-beloved characters in all comicdom. Embodying the mind-blowing concepts of Kirby and Stan\u2019s socially conscious writing craft, the Surfer\u2019s stories expressed their creative vision in staggering and unique tales. Another talent would touch the character, however, granting him a soul-wrenching humanity that helped define him to this very day: the one and only John Buscema! A master of the craft, Buscema\u2019s Silver Surfer is considered by many to be the peak of comic-book art.<\/p>\n<p>Now, the original adventures of the Silver Surfer are presented in one complete volume! Containing every story and letters page, restored and recolored to match the original issues, plus behind-the-scenes bonuses and critical essays, this book is the guaranteed way to get in on the character in the upcoming Fantastic Four film!<br \/>\nCollecting SILVER SURFER #1-18.<br \/>\n576 PGS.    $74.99<br \/>\nISBN: 0-7851-2752-6<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since he&#8217;s going to be in a movie, the Surfer gets a big book.
