The Silver Surfer #2

The concluding chapter of Stan Lee and Moebius's two-issue "Parable" limited series arrives here, and the cover alone signals something special. Moebius renders the Silver Surfer surging upward on his board through a cascade of shattered, otherworldly rock formations, his chrome form blazing against a radiant yellow burst of energy — with the imposing silhouette of Galactus looming in the corner inset. It's a striking piece of cover art from one of comics' most celebrated visual artists, and a satisfying finale to a genuinely ambitious Marvel/Epic collaboration.
