It’s perhaps important to note that the issues of the series collected here (15 to 23, plus two annuals) represent a very particular era for our shiny boi, one before the book became essential reading for anyone following Jim Starlin’s Thanos and Infinity stories. ![]() I also love love love the 1987 volume of Silver Surfer, of which Parable is the second collection. It’s with this mind-boggling example of stellar stewardship that Silver Surfer Epic Collection: Parable begins, and I’m not going to lie – it’s the whole reason I chose to review the book. ![]()
