Welcome to the Classy Comics Podcast where we search for the best comics in the universe. From Boise, Idaho here is your host, Adam Graham.
Alright, well we're going to start our review looking at Silver Surfer: Requiem, a mini series written by JMS, the creator of Babylon Five and a writer on a wide variety of comic books series both for DC and Marvel as well as Indie Work. This is a kind of What If… story dealing with the potential death of the Silver Surfer that was released back in 2007.
For context, it's important to remember that Grant Morrison had launched his series, All-Star Superman, back in 2005 which focused on Superman trying to make sure that his loved ones and his adopted planet were safe once he was gone. So you can see how this story may have come about. It's also worth noting that from here Marvel did do several books featuring the last stories of popular characters, usually titled something like The Ant. But just like in Silver Surfer, it was essentially a What If story rather than a situation where they were actually killing off the character.
So, again, this one is a What If story. I'll comment first of all on the art. It's by Esad Ribic and it is amazing. Just absolutely beautiful, gorgeous painted artwork that's stunning, and it really gives emotional weight and power to really every scene in this book. And so, the art is just incredible throughout, and it drives home the power of the story by JMS.
Issue One features the Surfer going to the Baxter Building. He clearly senses that things are not right and he wants Reed Richards to examine him. And so Reid examines him and what he finds is that slowly but surely the protective layer that allows him to go through space as the Silver Surfer is beginning to fail, and because it's tied into his nervous system his body is going to fail and he's going to die in three weeks to a month. And we also get flashbacks into the Surfer's past and how as Norrin Radd he had agreed to be Galactus' herald in order to save his own planet, and he'd hoped to lead Galactus to planets without life on them, but the infusion of the Power Cosmic overwrote a lot of his personality until he came to Earth and the Fantastic Four with the help of Alisha, Ben Grimm's girlfriend, were able to jar that back into being, and he stood and fought Galactus and saved the world at great personal cost. And so it was appropriate that he went back there; and he's facing death and it really does capture all the emotion of that as he's coming to terms with that, and also putting it into perspective. At one point he says, "The Monarch butterfly has a lifespan of two weeks, and that's a generation to the Monarch butterfly so I've got two generations left.
In Issue Two the Surfer runs into Spider-Man. He assists Spider-Man because he sees some innocent people are in danger and he's just passing by; but Spidey notices something is wrong and follows him and gets him to tell him what's going on. In many ways this story works a lot better than you would think it was because Spidey is not really a typical major part of the Surfer's life or vice versa. JMS at the time had been working on The Amazing Spider-Man. But in many ways Spider-Man represents a sort of average Joe, average person's perspective on Earth; and before...
