*Marvel: Following his debut in Fantastic Four #48, Norrin Radd, Herald of Galactus, gained popularity as a recurring guest-star, and his status was confirmed when Marvel launched the Silver Surfer’s own series in the double-sized format in 1968. This premier issue featured, for the first time, John Buscema’s illustrations on the Surfer, a body of work generally acknowledged to be among his finest, and presented also for the first time a 38 page account of the Surfer’s origins, plus, in the back, a 13 page tale of the Watcher, detailing for the first time reasons behind the Watcher’s oath of non-interference. Trapped in plastic much like the Surfer was trapped on Earth, this CGC Blue Label (unrestored) copy of Surfer #1 is graded 3.5 – VG- equivalent – and is on sale at £225. SORRY, THIS HAS NOW SOLD
