The Ultimate Silver Surfer Stan Lee 9781572972995 Books Reviews

Though I love the collection of adventures in this book, my favorite is the history/origin of Silver Surfer. I believe this particular story is Stan Lee's masterpiece.

The descriptions of Zenn-la and its society, Norrin Radd joyously learning to surf on lava flows, his love for Shalla Bal, saving his planet, the transformation to Silver Surfer, losing his humanity while serving Galactus, and finding it again in time to help the Fantastic Four save earth are truly mesmerizing. I both laughed and cried when I read this tale.

I am rarely affected this way when reading about a superhero; but in reading this story, I have come to believe that Silver Surfer is the greatest superhero of all time. I realize this highly debatable. And I am not trying to alienate or argue with fans of other great superheroes like Ironman, Thor, Superman, etc., but I truly believe Silver Surfer is the most powerful and interesting superhero character ever created He learned to surf on lava flows as a mere youth before ever receiving his powers from Galactus. Additional powers are continually and conveniently revealed in his adventures. ("Good thing Galactus bestowed this useful power upon me; now I can save this entire planet.") He is supremely fast. He can fly into a sun without being damaged at all. He doesn't even need his board to travel, though it is a really cool mode of transport. He doesn't seem to have an Achilles heel like Superman does with Kryptonite. He has inner strength and is incredibly self-sacrificing and honorable. Since he is not human, he does not seem to have human flaws such as pride, greed, etc. And he helped the Fantastic Four battle Galactus. How much more powerful and amazing could any superhero be? I believe Stan Lee created an incredibly pure character (similar to Faramir) though not without flaws, so he is also interesting.

I was also extremely impressed with the fact that a single person, Alicia Masters, could turn the tide so quickly in a story. After spending only minutes with her, Silver Surfer had an understanding that the earth was worth saving and was compelled to confront, and ultimately do battle with, Galactus.

Finally, one of the most exciting events of this story occurs before Galactus arrives to destroy Zenn-la. My heart actually beat faster when Norrin Radd and Shalla Bal began "moving toward one another." Though nothing actually happened (mainly because they were interrupted and the story is tasteful) those simple words were incredibly sensual to read. There is definitely something to be said for the power of suggestion and leaving things to our imagination. In this case, lack of graphic sexual detail is so much more intense than a full description.

I have only described my favorite tale in this book, the history/origin of the Silver Surfer. The rest of the stories are also exciting to read. I recommend this book for fans of all superheroes, though especially those of Silver Surfer.

It is awesome and my husband loves it. We just received the book but he is excited to read the book.
avoid buying this unless you want to read a fiction novel. glad that i got a used copy, cuz i literally threw it away when i got it. it LOOKS like a graphic novel cover. totally false advertising on the sellers' part.
instead, but the "Marvel masterworks - silver surfer vol. 1" graphic novel. that has what this should've been.
Informative.
