The Movie is coming YOUR way June 15th in theaters near you so mark your calendars! 

For those that aren't familiar with the Surfer, he first appeared in the Fantastic Four Comic Books, issues #48 thru #50, in what is known as the 'Galactus Trilogy' in 1966.

According to the multiple stories around the creation of the Surfer, Stan Lee wrote a synopsis about the most powerful being ever in the Universe, (Galactus), coming to our Earth to consume it for its' energy!

Jack Kirby was the artist and co-plotter of that Trilogy. He thought that such a powerful being would have a herald, one who would search out planets for Galactus ahead of time before Galactus got hungry.  Jack came up with the idea of the Surfer, and Stan  added 'Silver' and wrote the dialogue of the Trilogy.

The Silver Surfer has proven so popular since Jack's creation that he has had three volumes of comic books, and will featured on two upcoming USPS postal stamps later this year! (See picture to left for close up of sample Silver Surfer stamp).

For those interested in checking out the Fantastic Four comics with or without the Silver Surfer, we have several unslabbed and CGC graded comics listed in our eBay Featured Store and eBay Pro Store. Thanks for viewing this pop culture / comic book blog post.... and feel free to post your comment below regarding the movie/comics!
