Enslaved by Galactus to prowl the cosmos for the demi-god's next planet-sized meal, the Surfer was as tragic a figure as any in comics -- and he looked impossibly cool at the same time! In the spring of 1968, things came together for both writer and character, with Lee giving the Surfer Marvel's very first ongoing double-sized 25 cent annual-sized comic. Lee also recruited \u003cstrong\u003eJohn Buscema\u003c\/strong\u003e, who had recently been lending his muscular brushwork to \u003ci\u003eThe Avengers\u003c\/i\u003e, for art chores. Together, they spun off a run of legendary tales that helped define the character forevermore.\n\nThe entire 18-issue run of the 1968 \u003ci\u003eSilver Surfer\u003c\/i\u003e series, with a final issue that reunites Surfer creators Lee and Kirby, is collected in this cosmic-sized XXL tome from the Eisner Award-winning series, every page shot with the highest production values from a pristine copy of the original comic book.\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eNote\u003c\/strong\u003e: These are shipped to us in an giant illustrated cardboard box.
