The Silver Surfer Is A Wimp, And That’s Okay

Since 1966, Norrin Radd has cruised the celestial seas as the shimmering Silver Surfer. Marvel’s spacefaring sentry has spent a half-century traveling the spaceways at lightspeed, moving from planet to planet to experience lifetimes’ worth of conflict and culture. His wisdom and the Power Cosmic, a fraction of the power available to the world-devouring Galactus, have made the Surfer one of the most distinguished allies of the Fantastic Four, Defenders, and Guardians of the Galaxy. Marvel’s Sentinel of the Spaceways stands among the stars as one of the bastions of his company’s unique brand of Kirby-esque cosmic heroism and he’s frequently seen as one of Marvel’s most powerful champions — at least on paper. In practice, the Silver Surfer is kind of a wimp.Silver Surfer Rebirth: Legacy is the latest miniseries focused on the former Herald of Galactus. The comic is helmed by Ron Marz and Ron Lim, who worked on the character in the ’90s. Readers can identify the pair’s familiarity with Norrin Radd based on the story’s historic Surfer-centric cast, its morality-driven story, its personal stakes, and the fact the Surfer’s first fight ends with him blasted to the ground. It’s the latest in a series of losing battles for Radd that extend back to the character’s first appearances. The Surfer’s history is filled with highlight-reel losses, but he’s always been defined by more than what he can communicate with his fists.Silver Surfer Rebirth: Legacy picks up where its predecessor, Silver Surfer Rebirth, left off. Norrin Radd travels with Captain Marvel’s son Genis-Vell, regaling him with heroic stories about his father. This time, the Surfer suggests using the Time Stone to let Genis witness the former Captain Marvel in action. The pair travel back in time, but things quickly go awry. After Genis watches Captain Marvel save an alien race, Silver Surfer reveals himself to be Mephisto in disguise. The real Surfer, suddenly aware of what’s transpired, travels to Adam Warlock to warn him. However, as is his custom, the Silver Surfer is immediately knocked to the ground.RELATED: Mephisto Just Nonchalantly Stole An Infinity Stone – What Is He Planning?RELATED: Silver Surfer Brought Back an Obscure Marvel Hero – And Made Them Better Than Ever
