Silver Surfer #3

The third chapter of "Communion" arrives with a cover that perfectly captures the Silver Surfer's otherworldly nature — his metallic form rendered almost entirely in shadow against a sweeping cosmic backdrop of deep purples and distant starlight, only his gleaming eyes and the sheen of his silver skin cutting through the darkness. It's a striking, contemplative image by cover artist Milx that gives the Herald of Galactus a brooding, solitary gravitas. With Dan Chariton and Stacy Weiss scripting and Lan Medina on interior art, this 2004 series continues to find fresh, atmospheric angles on one of Marvel's most compelling cosmic characters.
