Silver Surfer #39Issue(s): Silver Surfer #39 Review/plot: ![]() ![]() The book has a goofy/funny tone to it, which i guess is broadly in line with the injection of humor that Jim Starlin announced would be a part of his run (with the inclusion of the Impossible Man in Silver Surfer #36). But this is more goofy than funny. James T. Sherman's art is certainly different. This panel (featuring an arena fighter posing as Shalla Bal) has a pulpy Romance comic feel to it. ![]() Quality Rating: C- Chronological Placement Considerations: Takes place after Silver Surfer annual #3.

CommentsDid Alan Grant ever write anything else for Marvel? He did a lot of DC work, mostly at Batman and Lobo, but this is the only Marvel comic I've ever seen from him. Posted by: OverMaster | July 4, 2017 5:51 PM He wrote Nick Fury Agent of Shield 11, which had Scottish dialogue fnord could not understand. :) Posted by: Michael | July 4, 2017 6:01 PM I'd swear he wrote at least a few things for Marvel, but obviously he found DC a much more comfortable place. Posted by: ChrisW | July 4, 2017 8:41 PM Oh, I forgot, he also wrote the second Batman and Daredevil crossover. His Daredevil was rather bad, including a scene where he reacts and comments to an image in the Batcomputer (????), but I found his Kingpin to be decent enough. Posted by: OverMaster | July 4, 2017 10:02 PM Oh come on, all he needed to include was a panel of Daredevil "feeling" the Batcomputer screen and he would have been on par with at least half of DD's pre-Miller writers.
