As all true Marvelites know, The SILVER SURFER had
his own mag in the '60s which lasted for 18 issues, the first 17 of
which were illustrated by JOHN BUSCEMA. However, there's a
'sort of' 18th ish he got to do (with STAN LEE), in the form of the
1988 hardback graphic novel, which took the form of one big panel
per page. As you'd expect from Big John, he delivered a superbly
drawn adventure, and this is one book that should be on the
shelves of every Silver Surfer fan.
When JACK KIRBY first introduced NORRIN RADD into
the pages of The FANTASTIC FOUR comic, he imbued him
with a strange, other-worldly quality that suited the character to
a 't'. He also drew him in a fluid way, that captured perfectly the
way in which surfers 'bobbed and weaved' on their boards. With-
in a very short space of time 'though, Jack's figure-work became
much more blocky and static, which is probably why Stan de-
cided to give the Surfer's regular mag to Buscema.
One only has to look at the 18th and final issue of the
Surfer's own mag (which Jack illustrated) to see the wisdom in
Stan's decision. In contrast to Jack's Surfer, Buscema's version
is lithe, fluid and flexible, and has an innate nobility that was no
longer evident in Jack's rendition of the character. You may dis-
agree with this assessment, but I bring convincing proof of it.
What's that you say? Show it to you? Okay then, I will. I
now present exhibits B to H for your consideration.
