SILVER SURFER: PARABLE HC

(W) Stan Lee  (A) MOEBIUS

A star falls to earth. Panic grips the planet as mankind prepares for its inevitable end. But the star is a ship, and inside is a god. All he asks is adoration. Overcome with relief, man rushes to obey. There is only one voice of dissent that will not be silenced: the Silver Surfer, who recognizes the "god" as his former master. But why has Galactus encouraged mankind to live down to his darkest nature? From Stan Lee and Moebius, one of France's living treasures, comes a bewitching tale of man's folly and nobility. Plus: Almost every hero on Earth has fallen before the unexpected power of Mrrungo-Mu, the alien leader of the Enslavers. All except the Silver Surfer. But what chance does even he have against such power? Collecting SILVER SURFER (EPIC) #1-2 and SILVER SURFER: THE ENSLAVERS HC.

While we can all agree that Marvel screwed the pooch on format with this one, the long out of print classic pairing one of comic's greatest artists with one of the greatest characters in the Marvel Universe is finally within reach! With plot by Stan Lee, this strange mashup of American and European storytelling results in a unique and wondrously beautiful story about gods and their impact upon man! RECOMMENDED BY PERRY!
