Silver Surfer #114

Silver Surfer looks to be in serious trouble on this striking 1996 Marvel cover, where the gleaming cosmic champion is pinned and battered by a massive purple-fisted opponent, his silvery form seemingly coming apart under the assault. Tom Grindberg's dynamic pencils and George Pérez's inks stage the scene with real kinetic force — debris flying, limbs splayed, the Surfer's face caught in a flash of impact. With a story title like "I Go to Pieces," this issue promises a rough ride for one of Marvel's most enduring cosmic heroes.
