SILVER SURFER - Which COMIC BOOKS Should You COLLECT for the Character? Highlighting KEYS & GRAILS
Ойындар
I pick back up with my series - KEY COMIC BOOK SPOTLIGHT where I talk about a few KEY & GRAIL issues for a notable hero or villain. In this episode I take a look at SILVER SURFER. These comics are typical books that people who are fans of the character love to collect as I talk a bit about the history and origin of them. But you could also look at them for possible spec or investment picks.

Silver Surfer! You're tugging on the heart strings today Swaggle. I love every single book on this list and that SS50 is still one of my all time favorite Surfer reads.

This issue is an easy resell. When I find them I grab and flip and I keep one issue for my run.

You nailed the Silver Surfer Vol 3 as one of the great runs in comics. Issues 34-38, 44-50 is the prelude to the Infinity Gauntlet Arc - an all-time favorite of mine. What Starlin did to that run is akin to what he did for the Captain Marvel and Warlock titles during his hey-day in the 70’s. Great video!
@Swagglehaus
2 жыл бұрын
Thanks! Yeah I actually prefer the Vol 3 run over the Vol. 1 run. IMHO the writing is much better.
Another great job Swag. You know from previous comments I like anything cosmic so naturally I own every surfer comic manufactured including defenders titles. Totally agree with your analysis but may I add #34 to your list? The cover is awesome and I’m a huge Thanos fan and this is the precursor of his infinity stones adventures. Your podcasts are becoming a must watch for me.

heh yeah, at this point its a meme to myself with choosing "5 books" :P
Have to say these summaries make me realize: As a teenage collector of the FF in the early 80's, I can't remember and do not know if I ever had an opportunity to buy those 48 to 50 issues. I could afford the issues in the 70's for sure. I'll never know if my younger variant passed up chances in the conventions I would go to. No doubt I was looking but with paper route money only, I am guessing I was priced out.

I think about that too! What grails were within grasp around me when I was a kid. I do remember a Silver Surfer #3 as a wall book in my LCS. It was the first "key" that I ever saw and understood was special. Think it was being sold for $50

Love all three of those characters. Doctor Strange is low key becoming for 4th favorite character as I read more and more on him.
FF48 likely the first cover appearance of slip-ons as well c/o the watcher. Triple key right there.

A great choice that is affordable would be the 1979-81 Fantasy Masterpieces 1-14. This was a reprint of the original Silver Surfer issues 1-14 which I would think most know about.. Don't know why they did not include issues 15-18 wonder if any one knows why.

I had SS#4, but I got too Cool (Highschool) and gave it to a friend for his Birthday. One of my biggest regrets EVER, that crazy guy doesn't even remember. It's way out of my price range now. I still have #1 and #2, the first appearance of the Badoon.
@Swagglehaus

wow, best present ever! hehe. I love the cover of #2, the purple is really striking.
To me, Buscema is the only Surfer artist, the rest of them pretenders to the throne. That said, Kirby, Byrne and Moebius are my next favorites. I could never get into that 90's run even when Starlin was writing it (probably because I'm not a fan of that bombastic 90's art style that Lim has). In addition to the ones you listed, the Byrne's one-shot and Moebius two issue set are both well worth reading. I'm also very partial to FF 120-123 (the first Surfer story I ever read) and 155-157, both featuring Buscema art. Can't wait to see him in the MCU along with big daddy Galactus!
