“The Fool on the Throne”

The Silver Surfer looms large and defiant on this 1991 cover, his board raised and power cosmic crackling as a terrified robed figure cowers at his feet — the call to arms spelled out in bold: "Death to the Emperor!" Ron Lim and Tom Christopher deliver a striking image of cosmic menace, with panicked onlookers scrambling in the chaos surrounding the Surfer's imposing stance. Part of Marvel's Infinity Gauntlet crossover, this issue — subtitled "The Fool on the Throne" — promises high-stakes confrontation on a universe-shaking scale.
