Silver Surfer Vol. 3 (Marvel Comics, 1987–1998)
The third volume of Silver Surfer is one of Marvel’s most acclaimed cosmic series, chronicling Norrin Radd’s return to space after years trapped on Earth. Written initially by Steve Englehart and later taken over by Jim Starlin and Ron Marz, this run expanded the Surfer’s mythos and solidified his place as one of Marvel’s most philosophical and powerful heroes.
Series Overview:
Launching in 1987, Silver Surfer Vol. 3 picks up after the character’s long exile, finally freeing him from the barrier Galactus placed around Earth. Once liberated, the Surfer roams the cosmos, confronting both new and familiar forces—from Mephisto and Thanos to the Kree and Skrull Empires. Starlin’s tenure introduced deep cosmic lore, including The Infinity Gauntlet crossover, where the Surfer plays a pivotal role warning Earth’s heroes of Thanos’s rise.
The series blends sweeping space opera with themes of morality, redemption, and the burden of power. The Surfer’s introspective narration and encounters with both gods and mortals make this volume one of the defining cosmic sagas of the late ’80s and ’90s Marvel era.
