Silver Surfer #141

The Silver Surfer strains with raw, cosmic energy against a shattering barrier, debris exploding outward around him in a burst of brilliant light — Jon Muth's cover art giving the chrome champion a striking, almost sculptural presence that feels both powerful and deeply human. The cover's provocative questions — "What dread fate awaits the Surfer?" and "Beyond the Barrier?" — set a genuinely tense, mysterious tone for the second chapter of "Sun Rise and Shadow Fall." At $1.99 in 1998, this is DeMatteis and Muth exploring the Surfer at what looks like a dramatic crossroads, with a visual style that stands out beautifully on any shelf.
