The sentinel of the spaceways soars again! After years trapped on Earth, the Silver Surfer finally breaks free of Galactus' barrier and returns to the stars. His full Power Cosmic restored, he heads for Zenn-La. But the old saying holds true: You can't go home again. While the age-old war between the Kree and the Skrulls heats up once again, the Elders of the Universe target Galactus! They're not the only heavy hitters in play -- not with Mephisto, Death and Eternity around. But love is the greatest force of all -- will Surfer find it with his old flame, Shalla Bal? With Galactus' herald, Nova? Or with the Celestial Madonna, Mantis? Plus: The origin of Galactus and more! Collecting SILVER SURFER (1982) #1, SILVER SURFER (1987) #1-14, SUPER-VILLAIN CLASSICS #1, and material from EPIC ILLUSTRATED #1 and MARVEL FANFARE (1982) #51.
