Silver Surfer #3
In "Heaven," the Silver Surfer returns Espirita to Earth after rescuing her from the Collector, only to face a new threat: the Elders dispatch the Runner to stop him. As the Kree and Skrull clash in a rising war, the Surfer is defeated—yet awakens to a surprising presence: Mantis. With Marshall Rogers' haunting art and Steve Englehart's introspective storytelling, this 1987 issue blends cosmic stakes with intimate moments, all rendered in striking colors and dynamic inks. The cover by Rogers and Rubinstein captures the Surfer’s isolation beneath a vast, star-strewn sky.
