Marvel Comics have announced “Silver Surfer: Rebirth,” a five-issue miniseries that will reunite the ’90s creative team of writer Ron Marz, and artist Ron Lim. Like “X-Men Legends” and “Symbiote Spider-Man,” it will tell a new story set in the midst of their run, where the Reality Gem has been stolen and used to resurrect the dead Captain Mar-Vell. “It’s up to Silver Surfer to team up with the least likely of allies, Thanos, to find the Gem and restore reality to its proper form!”
“Turns out you can go home again,” Marz quipped. “‘Silver Surfer’ with Ron Lim was literally my first job in comics. The first comic page I ever wrote was drawn by Ron when we were both kids. And now three decades later we get to go back there and slip right back into that same groove. It’s so great to be wielding the Power Cosmic again.”
Lim said, “I am so thrilled to be penciling ‘Silver Surfer: Rebirth.’ When Darren Shan, our editor, asked if I’d be interested in working on this with Ron Marz, I jumped at the chance. It is fantastic to be working with Ron again. It has been quite a while since we worked together, but it feels like hardly a day has passed. I’m having a blast getting to draw many of my favorite characters from our run. The story is full of surprises, familiar characters and crazy cosmic action! I can’t wait for the readers to check out the book — hope they enjoy it as much as I enjoy drawing it!”
“Silver Surfer: Rebirth” #1 will be released online and in comic book stores on January 19, 2022.
