Welcome to the 919th installment of Comic Book Legends Revealed, a column where we examine three comic book myths, rumors and legends and confirm or debunk them. This is a special “basing characters on real life people” edition of CBLR. In the first legend, we look at a Silver Surfer storyline built around mocking Marvel’s then-new Editor-in-Chief.This might be a shocking revelation, but very often, people view events in terms of how they affect them personally. I know, I know, it’s a stunning fact, but it is true, whatever personally affects you the most tends to be your takeaway from any given situation.
