Silver Surfer: Requiem
▸ For untold years Norrin Radd has surfed the galaxy, exploring the darkness between stars, witnessing the rise and fall of vast civilizations. Now his ride is about to come to an end. It starts with a small spot - a blemish that will spread until he is no more. Until then, the Silver Surfer would undertake his final voyage - to the one destination that has always eluded him. His journey starts where it began.

This story isn’t cannon right⁉️ Excuse my ignorance I’m just trying make sure it isn’t
When does a man die? When he is hit by a bullet? No! When he suffers a disease? No! When he ate a soup made out of a poisonous mushroom? No! When his heart stops? No! A man dies when he is forgotten! And we will never forget you, Surfer. Even if it is an alternate reality Surfer, it's good sendoff for him. We're all going to miss him. Good-bye, friend.

*What? No, he’s not.* He’s been one of the most popular Marvel characters since the 80’s. He’s had amazing and extremely successful storylines in the past few years and has never been irrelevant. Every comic book fan knows him. He’s been in a live action movie.

It’s not lost on us why this story was your first one back. Beautiful story and a great way to reflect on those we have lost. Welcome back.
I could’t watch this in one sitting without crying, what a beautiful requiem for a friend. I’m so sorry for your loss Rob, we are all gonna miss him very much
Hey Rob, I’ve never commented on one of your videos before but I’m compelled to now. Firstly I’d like to say I’m so sorry for your loss, words cannot express the feeling of losing a true friend and I know there’s not much solace in any condolence I can relay. That said, I wanted to express my gratitude. For many years I struggled through the rigors of medical school and residency and all of the extreme highs and lows that accompany those long hours filled with painful doubt and anxiety among other emotions. Your videos however, brought me laughter, happiness, a feeling of comfort and many other things during those hard years. Your videos kept me strong and determined. I would turn them on in the background and listen to them for hours and hours. So for all that you’ve done for me, it seems only fair I express my undying gratitude. I don’t know you personally, but I am who I am today and have achieved what I have in no small part thanks to you and your channel. So thank you. I am truly heartbroken for you and I just hope you know that how you were there for me those years, we are here for you. “Life doesn’t give us purpose, we give life purpose” -Barry Allen. Thank you Rob.
RIP BEN❤️

It isn't lost that this video comes after you've experienced a tragic loss yourself. This is the beauty of comics. They can help us deal with the most monumental of challenges. God speed my brother.
🙏🏻❤️ Welcome back, Rob. We've missed you...but our hearts are with you 💝
I'm 49. I've been following you for years and never commented but maaaaan, you' and Ben have brought back my love for comics! I'm giving you your flowers 🌷 🌷 now Rob. I'm glad you're back. Benny would've wanted you to keep it going. We need you bro.

Sorry for your loss Rob. He lives on through your work. Keep blowing our minds with these videos. You're the best at what you.
You covered this story years ago. Not complaining just brings back memories of watching you and Benny and how as an adult y'all got me to keep up with comics even if i couldn't spare the time to read them. I remember you covering this one and it made me pick it up. The story is just beautiful and was one of the main comics i told friends to read. Glad you did an updated video on it to give it more coverage
Thank you for covering this story. Alot of people are with you right now and from the bottom of my heart I thank you for giving me this video at this time in my life.
This is my favorite Silver Surfer comic and as a stand alone, it's just a beautiful tribute to life.
You are thought of, you are prayed for, you are an amazing person. Thank you Rob and I pray that your heart continues to heal...
I’m glad your back. I remember back in 2016 someone in my college library watching you and I responded like a douche bag said “dude watch ComicStorian instead- he’s better”. Shortly after I found out you two were IRL friends and I felt very wholesome about this as I was glad you two became best friends instead of rivals. I was so shocked when he passed and I loved the video you made as a tribute to him. I subbed as I know if anyone deserves to continue the mantle of the comic book KZreadr it’s you. Sending my love and regards ❤
This hit different. Ben got me back into comics after a long time not reading them. Funny enough Rob, his channel led me to yours. You guys are important to a lot of people.
The reason that this story is so beautiful is because it's very personal. Joe Straczynski wrote this story as a eulogy to his long-term friend Andreas Katsulas who passed away from cancer back in February 2006. Andreas played the alien ambassador G'Kar on the sci-fi TV show Babylon 5 which Straczynski created. This was his way of eulogizing his friend. This was a very good story to cover. Rest in peace, Benny.❤
Glad you're posting again. We're all bummed about recent events, man. Peace.
Thank you so much for coming back
I'm sorry for your loss brother. I hope you are doing well and appreciate you coming back to us so soon. Much love Rob
This story is truly special and everything you been through recently... for the first time in this channel, i actually shed tears. This was beautiful, thank you for sharing this, Rob and welcome back 🥲
Thank you for covering this beautiful story man. Wishing you well during this difficult time.
Absolutely Love your channel Brother
Its literally the best thing the comic book medium has ever produced. Its not even close. Norrin Radd will always be my favorite comic character and this is how his story ends. I don't care what some movie or book tries to retcon after this. This is how Silver Surfer ends.
A great story Rob. Very touching. We’re very sorry for the loss of your friend. It’s obvious you cared for him and his family greatly. His family is in my prayers as are you. Time will slowly heal the pain. Take care brother.
Welcome back Rob. Been worried about you, Sir
Can't wait to see what else you have up your sleeve!
A beautiful story, I am sorry for your loss. Still makes me cry, he's the reason my love for comics survived growing up along with yourself. And this some of the lines in this story just break me up right now.
I've been waiting for this. This story is glorious and beautiful. Very befitting ❤
Glad to see you're back
Good to have you back man
We've all got your back through this tough situation, sending all the positivity and hope and joy we can your way man! It's great to hear you back sharing in our mutual love of comics
Good to have you back and the perfect story to come back with. Always be remembered with love and honor, to truly live in our hearts forever.
Thank you for everything you do Rob!
Hope you’re doing better rob❤️
Thank you Rob for covering this story. Also my condolences. We are there for you dude.
I've been watching your channel now since my life went head over heels in 2017. Your storytelling has brought me through harder times and to joy when I thought I was never going to feel good again. This story was another of those moments where I cant help myself but to say thank you Rob. Thank you for reading to me. Thank you for being here. You mean the world to me and I hope you can read this and know that.
Thanks for the new content. 💯
Welcome back
Welcome back. Sorry for the lost of your friend. Thank you for your representation of this wonderful story. I appreciate the work you do. Stay strong you are not alone dealing with the grief.
This was such a beautiful story. I didn't have this on my list of things this morning, but here I am in my feels before going to work. Thank you Rob.
Nice to see you back, Rob sorry for your loss I can still feel the sadness in your voice
Got to be my second favourite story of all time. So beautiful. Glad to see you're back, take it slow and I wish you all the best man.
For the first time (even though having never read this in person) a comic has made me cry. Your telling of this story and with your recent life event still on my mind just made it all so real. I couldnt help but start crying starting at the Mary J section. The one thing that all humanity needs is to see it self in a life where we no longer matter because the picture/scale is so vast, that our petty squabbles mean nothing. Thank you for this video. Ill be for sure buying the collection.
Sorry for your loss and thank you for your continued perseverance in bringing beloved characters to life.
Welcome back Rob! I'm so happy to see you continuing to carry on doing what you love.
I've been with your channel for about 7 or 8 years now. I understand your loss and pain. But this story is a testament to no one dies as long as they are remembered. Glad to have you back. But I'm more sorry for your loss. I imagine that you keep going because this is what he would want you to do. Stay strong and stay golden. From Fresno CA. You and he both are family forever because of the Joy you bring through the good, bad, and ugly. Much love to you Rob.
Welcome back Rob. Glad you took time away sorry for your loss again sending genuine love your way🖤
Thanks for being back so soon Rob. I've been really affected by the news. It's so hard to not watch his videos right now. It hurts too bad. But I wanted to say thank you for doing what you both loved so much. I'm sure you were a wonderful friend to him.
This story is absolutely amazing! Thank you for sharing this story Rob
This story is just absolutely beautiful and I cannot thank you enough Rob for sharing this story with all of us, especially after the loss of one of your close friends and a pillar in the comic community here on KZread. I cannot thank you enough, my friend
When written well, The Silver Surfer is one of the best characters in comics. Has been one of my faves since the 80s. And this story did SO WELL by him! Thanks for covering it, Rob!
As soon as Rob says, "It's the most beautiful story" my eyes started welling because I knew what time it was. Rest in the Most Peace Benny.
One of many but imo, this upload truly captures the essence of the goodness of humanity. There have been many throughout time and their importance to carry the legacies of history, follies of man, and every love to never truly be lost In sharing his love and passion for narrative, heroes, comics, Rob has unknowingly transformed into that very thing. Rob is The Storyteller. Thanks man, truly
Glad you’re back and my condolences for the loss of your friend 🙏🏾
I'm so happy to see you're back making videos, but I also urge you to take more time than this to process what you're going through. Your fans care about you and your content, and we want you to be happy. We will wait. Condolences and best wishes Rob
not ashamed to say this one pulled a tear from and tugged on the ol heart strings... man thank you bro! thanks for your excellent portrayal..
Welcome back Rob, I hope that you are ok and my deepest condolences for your loss
Welcome back friend. We all have one thing in common. The pain of losing someone we love, and like us, you fought through it to come back and not quit or give up. Brave soul we are proud of you.
Yeah, I needed a moment after this one. Thanks for sharing this one, Rob. What a beautiful story.
Though the story has been covered, I never grow tired of hearing it. Truly one of the best stories to come out of Marvel and always well told by Rob. Managed to get my hardcover copy of Silver Surfer: Requiem signed and sketched by Esad Ribic himself. Still looking for Straczynski.
I needed this…thank you Rob. Much love. ✌🏼
Beautiful story and especially during this times. Thanks for uploading and working throughout it all. Thanks Rob
I understand. Good to have you back.
Halfway into listening, and I couldn't stop from crying, Benny and all of those we've loved and lost are in a way the very stars Norrin became, this story couldn't have gotten the point across any better. Rest in greatness Benny
This brought tears to my eyes. Thank you Rob for everything you do and sharing this with us. You are such a great person and friend.
Thia was one of the greatest stories I was ever shown, and I truly appreciate and thank you for bringing it to me. This is why I subscribed to your channel long ago. Awesomeness. The Silver Surfer.
Welcome back and thank you for all of your contributions to the community. Condolences on your loss. 🙏🏽
Deepest of condolences. I too have recently lost my grandfather same day as your dear friend. Silver surfer is my favorite super hero in general. You just unlocked gates within that needed to let the water flow🙏🏾thank you man so much may the glory of the lost high be upon you 💚
Rip to the real life sliver surfer….. Ben changed and helped mine and many others lives, love you rob it gets better.❤
Wow literally in tears 🥹 thank you for taking the time to cover this Rob! I've been on this journey with you for years and you have gotten me through tough times and happy times...I want to take this moment to say thank you for kind of being 'Silver Surfer' to me! Keep up the good work!
This story is one of the most beautifully written comic book stories I’ve ever come across. THANK YOU.
Sad that a 20min video on a single comic can touch me unlike the majority of Marvel/Star Wars stories in the past 5yrs. Incredible
Rob you made comics cool for all of us, your friend much like the Silver Surfer in this story will never be forgotten. May God comfort you in your time of need.
Good to see you back. Sorry for your loss your stronger than most.
Welcome back Robb. My condolences to you for the loss of Benny. You comic book KZreadrs have touched our lives in ways you couldn’t imagine, especially you. You don’t just get a million subscribers without being a big deal and touching people’s lives. This is a beautiful tribute/dedication to Benny.
Sorry for ur lost I'm glad to see ur back
Great to have you back man I hope you are doing better.

I think this was an amazing story to cover especially after Benny. We will all miss him we will always love him and we will always hear that voice. ❤
