Fantastic Four #55

Oct 1966 · Marvel · 0.12 USD
“When Strikes the Silver Surfer!”

In "When Strikes the Silver Surfer!", the Fantastic Four face a cosmic visitor in the Himalayas, where Johnny and Wyatt Wingfoot encounter the Silver Surfer under mysterious circumstances. Tensions rise when the Thing, left behind and feeling overlooked, grows suspicious of the Surfer’s presence—especially when he senses the cosmic herald might be drawing attention to Alicia. Stan Lee’s storytelling, brought to life by Jack Kirby’s dynamic art and Joe Sinnott’s sharp inks, captures the clash of ego and alien wonder, all capped by Kirby and Sinnott’s striking cover.
