I found it interesting that Death is portrayed as a female in this story; I am glad the power of the feminine is not understated or underestimated in graphic novels.
Two endearing scenes in this tale add to the amazing sensitivity and compassion of the Silver Surfer character - the beautiful image of Surfer cradling the baby he saved from the volcano, and the gentlemanly way he reacts to She-Hulk clobbering him when she mistakes him for a bad guy intruder. (He is very polite and does not fight back. Not that he needs to since she obviously cannot do much damage to him. Still, his benign reaction to her assault is very nice.) Good job of appealing to female Surfer readers like myself.
One of my favorite recurring elements of the Silver Surfer saga also happens in this story: Additional powers are continually and conveniently revealed in his adventures - in this case, when our hero saves the Salarians. ("Good thing Galactus bestowed this useful power upon me; now I can save this entire planet.")
The only sequence I didn't like in this book was the encounter with the Impossible Man. I thought it was boring and was likely added as entirely useless filler to extend the story. But that is just my opinion. Some people might like the endless shapeshifting and pranks of the Impossible Man. I already think Silver Surfer has enough ability to understand humor, so I was puzzled as to why the need to develop more was stressed.
Overall, this is a great storyline; and I will enjoy reading this graphic novel again.
J.H. Sweet, author of The Fairy Chronicles, and fan of Silver Surfer
The only fault I find in this collection is Starlin tended to minimize the SS in terms of power, he comes on as greatly inferior to Thanos. We all tend to forget his original appearences, the SS represented an Angel of Death ( while Galactus represented God himself ). In defense of starlin most people seem to have forgotten what Kirby meant with the creation of this Iconic Charecter screaming for his own book ( not a mini )
And some of the BEST I have ever read.
Some writers cannot get the aspect of cosmic comics done right.
But Starlin is clearly the right guy for the job.
The art and writing are perfect in this book!
A true GEM for true fans of the Silver Surfer and Thanos alike!
You cannot get a better point of view into Thanos mind than these issues. which is also a good trade to have next to your Starlin Thanos Volume 1 trade
