"Quite dated. Floridly written. And yet there's a certain charm to the overwrought angst of the Silver Surfer. And the artwork of him in space -- when it's just him -- is somewhat captivating. And I love the origin story. The whole herald of Galactus thing. So although this was only just okay, it did further my attempts to understand the comics form."
"What's wrong with the Silver Surfer is not the idea, but the execution. There is all of one important character other than him, and that person is across the universe and they can't speak together or meet. Other than that, it's jsut the sivler surfer defeating bad guy after bad guy. No one Spider-man is more popular, as that series is exploding with characters!"
"The stories by Stan Lee were tedious beyond belief. Only worthwhile for John Buscema's artwork throughout most of the book - Jack Kirby contributes art for the final story in the volume."
"stupid 1970s Marvel comic books... terrible villains (except Frankenstein), over-dramatic angst. I can see why this kind of stuff would have seemed so extraordinary compared to DC and Superhero stories in general in 1975, but it's just not a very good read now. Some of John Buscema's artwork is great though. Really holds its own again Jack Kirby's.
What terrible collection will I read next? The Haunted Tank? Weird War?? Moon Knight??? Stay tuned!! (At least I didn't see the latest Fantastic Four movie...)"
