Silver Surfer is hands down Stan Lee's best superhero he wrote and easily one of the best superheroes of all time. He is so underrated and I hope there is a movie about him.

[@Unversed333]

There were plans for him to have his own film, with the Rise of the Silver Surfer setting up a few stuff we could have seen in the film. Sadly, Fantastic Four's box office and critical failure prevented that from happening, and the character has not been featured outside of the comics since the MCU took over. Hopefully, they will do this guy justice, perhaps once Kang is taken out, and they begin setting up Galactus as the next big bad of the MCU.

[@bendu8282]

@@AliFareedMC some claim that yet have never looked at a comic after Stan writes & edits them once the illustrations & notes they send to him were done. The truth is comic book stories & characters are extremely collaborative. Cases where a story & character actually come from one or two artist are extremely rare. Jack Kirby will go on and on about how he did more then Stan for example but won’t mention how Stan’s brother played a strong role in Thor’s Origin. Many of these comic co creators like to inflate their perceived contributions over other Artists that worked along side them in the industry. It’s shameful. Just a cheap tactic for press attention and money. You can tell the truth just by reading comics. When you look at Jack Kirby & Steve Ditko’s work outside of Stan Lee’s involvement for example you noticed as interesting as the stories and characters are a large distinct lack of character personality that makes them not as memorable. Everyone involved can give their own “views” of how things went back then but often the final product at the end of the day does not lie.

I think the Silver Surfer should pop in someone else's film first. While he is associated with the Fantastic Four in the comics, I'd rather have him appear in a Guardians or Captain Marvel film, since they are already in space. Then, give him his solo film to set up the next Big bad after Kang, the cosmic devourer of worlds and his former master, Galactus.

It's odd that Marvel's biggest creation-The Fantastic Four-has only had three movies (the first two were fine but the third one was awful). Marvel had had big superhero success in the 1940s with their Invaders characters-Captain America, Bucky, The Sub-Mariner, The Human Torch. But after World war 2, the public had lost interest in those characters, and Marvel's super hero avenue faded. Not untill the 1960s did Stan Lee revive Marvel's superhero comic line with Fantastic Four.

[@Unversed333]

The franchise has always been cursed. From the unreleaesed 1994 film, a few of their cartoons. It's been hard for them to get the proper treatment when adapted outside of the comics, but I have faith that they will finally get their due credit under the MCU's creative execs.

My "reading into" the Silver Surfer is that he doesn't represent anything mystical at all but in fact "physical silver" as a "Financial God" heralding a terrible time for anyone who dares mock him and his "Master" Galactus (physical gold.) Underneath these two Almighty's sits the Great Metropolis' all hungry and indeed starving not from lack of fish but lack of respect for how the fish goes from Sea, estuary, Lake, stream or River to your table and then of course "from table to mouth"(good manners). Humans are by nature hedonistic, gross, suffering, plaintive and indeed pitiful and by looking at this thread indeed pitiless even as Artists as well. That we have to rise above this does indeed require "evil" or "villainy" in the World...but hopefully villainy in this form...that which expresses a greater purpose for us to be considered "worthy humans..

Jack Kirby was more than an "artist." Jack was the sole creator of the Silver Surfer. He created the concept and the premise for the character in his artwork before Stan even knew it was happening. Kirby also co-wrote, as a minimum - thru his plotting and panelization - every story he ever drew. Kirby wasn't just an "artist" - he was the co-creator and co-writer. Stan was a master of appearing to give credit to his artists, while back-handedly let you know he was the creative inspiration for the stories (not the artist). Marvel artists were just Stan's "pencils" for his ideas. This is far from reality. Stan was Marvel's greatest ambassador and salesman, and were it not for him neither Marvel or the MCU would be what it is today. But describing the Marvel artists as anything other than co-creators is a disservice to their contributions. The greatest character Stan Lee ever created was Stan Lee. 'Nuff said.

[@davidlane1248]

Agree to disagree. Stan Lee on his own is simply a writer and an "ideas" guy who very much needs visual artists to bring his concepts to fruition. But he's still the seed, which is the most important part. Artists are like the water, sunlight and fertilizer- highly necessary and able to influence how a seed grows, but they can be used for any seed with varying degrees of success. The seed that turned into modern marvel was born mostly from Stan Lee. I say that as an aspiring artist myself I will admit the silver surfer bit irritated me a little because Stan definitely sounded like he wanted to give as little credit as possible, but most marvel creations are from Stan's noggin. He the originator and deserves more than a simple 50/50 split on credit

[@Unversed333]
