Intro Song: • Video - Zábava
Silver Surfer is one of my all-time favorite fictional characters, thanks giving this character justice in the video.
sad the writers always makes him weak in battle
I feel like the Silver Surfer is the most underrated pop culture character of all time.
Him and Doom
Both of them
They are hands down the best Marvel characters imo.
I agree. Surfer is the 1 i identify with the most as well as doom of which i keep deep inside.
Yessssssssss
He got his own 90’s cartoon which was pretty neat, but I agree with you. Not enough love is given to the guy.
The silver surfer is my favourite Marvel comic character.
I love your videos, but I also can't help falling to sleep to them.. Thanks from an insomniac!!
Man I had every issue of Jim Starlin's run on surfer (Silver Surfer vol 2) when i was a child....it was amazing to grow up to.
Best intro ever...
The intro music is too sick.
Name of music?

Man I love this channel.. I fell asleep last night listening to the whole infinity gauntlet story (thats a complement) This stuff is comforting
The Silver Surfer represents Kirby's growing frustration in his working relationship with Stan Lee. Kirby created the Surfer on his own and meant for him to be a creation of Galactus alone, and he was never a guy named Norrin Radd. (Galactus was God-like or a representation of God's Wrath while The Surfer was a fallen angel.) In those FF stories, Kirby wanted the Surfer to learn more and more about Humanity, with our virtues and shortcomings. The problem was that Surfer became so popular, he appeared in a story without Kirby and got his own series--again, without Jack. Jack wasn't treated this way when he worked with Joe Simon, who made most, if not all creative decisions, with Kirby, while they were still a team. Apparently, this business with the Silver Surfer bothered Jack more than he let on and he refused to create any more notable characters unless the ideas came from Lee first! This is why when DC offered him Editorial control of his Fourth World books, he seized the opportunity! You can read about it in issues of The Jack Kirby Collector and in Evanier's excellent Kirby book. Evanier once worked as an assistant to Jack and was (and might still be) close to the Kirby family.
Pulsar Stargrave interesting
gdroff These aren't my theories alone. There was a contributor to the JACK KIRBY COLLECTOR who wrote a series of articles called "A Failure To Communicate" and Kirby himself spoke about how he was annoyed (to say the least) at how every time he created a new character "...it would be taken away [...from him.]" But these are the known and accepted risks you take when you do "Work-For-Hire". The Indies of Pacific and Image Comics came too late for Kirby and his contemporaries although Kirby did manage to publish Captain Victory... and Silver Star while he still worked in animation. DC later made some kind of deal with him for the Fourth World characters but some speculate their main motivation was to stick it to Marvel while they were holding Jack's original artwork hostage!

Damn it Rob your voice is soothing and just adds a definite impact to these videos!
Hey Rob just wanted to tell you thanks for all your work man. I look forward to your videos every week just like I did the new bleach tybw arc and dbz when I was a kid. I wanna apologize I criticized one of your videos a long time ago because I couldn't keep focused on your longer videos and that was my own fault I have ADHD but in the last year i find myself going to your longer videos at night routinely and your new weekly defenders and fantastic 4 videos omg dude I just have to correct myself and apologize for incorrectly judging your work and to just tell you thank you for doing what you do you've taught me more about marvel than I ever knew existed. Your a beast and the goat at what you do.
my favorite of all time.. always keep hearing more and more good news
Highlight of my week man, thanks.
What an opening to this video....Your knowledge is beyond that of the Beyonder makeing you the one and only Cosmic Comic Guru...Peace!
Love all your great videos, keep up your good work
Silver Surfer and Wolverine may soon come to MCU.
With Spidey joining the fray anything is possible
Nailed it!!!
S00N
😏😏yup
6 years later:
That was the greatest intro ever.
Time for him to make his appearance in the MCU!
Rob thank you for covering my favorite superhero. This and The death of the silver surfer videos are uh-MAZING!
plz do more content on him it would be great now that your audience is much larger
Thank you, just got back into collecting Art work....love the story telling...panel changes are awesome..
i really love your vids keep it up . Even though im not that big into marvel the lore of these characters is great.
Just found this gem. Feels like a different person telling the story. You are the reason I have CZcams premium. They owe you a check!
YES!!!!!! Finally. GREAT job....now more Norrin! smirk
(btw his love interest is Shalla Bal;)
Love your infinity guantlet leadup for Surfer. Cant wait for more!
Love all your videos :)
loved it man, great job.
Norrin's race were basicaly human.
keep up the good work bro, would love if you did original sin or siege of Asgard
I just want thank you Rob. Your videos have helped me while I've been in the hospital waiting for the arrival of my son. Just keep making these great videos.
Great stuff! i really like the way your voices sounds so professional throughout all your vids. You might wanna consider another line beside "and what we see here is that" it is getting a little repetitive.That being said, I feel you may have been better served if you avoided this here topic of the Silver Surfer. your other vids follow the story of the character, not the publishing history of Marvel. Yes Silver Surfer#1 came out after FF#48, but clearly his history runs counter to this. toward the end you talk about SS losing his "humanity" over time, But the infinity Gauntlet tie ins counter this. Check out SS v3 #50 for more on the compassion of Galactus with regards to SS's humanity. Aside from this, and back to the beginning of the video, you mention how SS was second in command behind Warlock during the IG. I contend that Jim Starlin had every intention of having SS be the main hero, but he lost control of the story and brought in Warlock at the last minute (remember starlin had SS fighting the mad titan for nearly 2 years before IG.) and as IG moved along, SS became less and less involved in the storyline. Anyway keep up the great work, its about time somebody did something like this, and your doing a great job at it too.
Love the intro dude keep it!
Awesome video Rob. Could you put a Silver Surfer Playlist together? I would love a revisit to all of Silver Surfer stories and appearances. That would be awesome.
seriously that intro is everything!!!
Can u please also make a video about Adam Warlock leadup? Your videos are very good, probably the best marvel stuff on CZcams that I know of!☺👍
Great job narrating keep it up!!
Thx u sir for all the videos
30k CONGRATS!
Good video.
I'd love to see one of these for Gladiator or Hyperion.
Great video!
Love your series... Only critique is let's keep the "what we see's" to a minimum of 500 times per video. Other then that these were a great way to direct people to get them caught up!
Great video! Very professional! I love the silver surfer!
P.s. eventually when the time comes in the future can you do Angela please?
great vid rob , just wanted to point out norran rads girlfriend is Shalla-bal not ''shen la '' , keep up the great work cant wait for the infinity gauntlet!
lol, The Watcher is a fanboy.
Gr8 vid, Rob.
Hi, I like your videos and appreciate the thought and critical thinking regarding comics. I'll check out your other channel. I've seen you do a lot of talk about powers and their measurement and I know ppl really like that. How about the characters alignments? Good, bad, and the shades of gray giving giving away to the absolute. Or how about a time line with the characters alignment? Another thing you could do, which might be a lot of work, is start using charts... using timelines, with events, powers, etc.; I know you get the gist of what I'm saying. Visuals besides visuals of the comic pages, i dunno anything about copyrights though. Anyway, great job. Oh, and to reiterate, maybe some character (alignment) comparisons between heroes and villans, and universes and multiverses, etc. Take care!
excellent channel dude.
Well done!
Haven't visited you in a bit.....like the new intro
I just got'ta say man, your videos are the shit. Keep it up.
Great music at the end.
his swallowing knows no bound
lmao
+Corey Bryan BREH!!!!! I was literally just thinking the same! THANK YOU
oh my God I thought I was the only one that think of that, his videos are awesome but every time he does that I cringe
Will E. Ayyyyoooooooooo pause lmaoo
Super pause
Silver surfer for president 2016
Silver surfer 2020
Holy shit this had to be the BEST intro I have ever seen!!!
Beta Ray Bill. Please.
I truly enjoy these vids. I'm hoping you cover House of M and Age of Apocalypse
so awesome! I needed to know this, finding marvel comic is my country it's so expensive and hard.
greatest intro of all time.
i miss this intro...please bring it back...if only for a few vids...
please do more SS stuff Rob...He is SO damn underrated...
Hey rob I am from the future just wanted to let you know you’re going to be big with this channel
ROB!!!
I missed this intro music!
Ah yes, I remember when 20th Century Fox perfectly depicted this....... not
I've been wanting to learn about Silber Surfer. Ty for this. What's the name of the song?
about time
Hey rob! Didn't you do the thanos quest? I can't find those videos
Verybice intro please keep it
too bad we never see anymore videos about the silver surfer you've kind if slept on him Rob
has he deleted that Silver Surfer Monologue video??
+Crossums Think so idk hes one of my favorites because he possesses so much power and isnt "evil" kind of sucks hes not often mentioned
VincetheGreat I absolutely agree! Surfer is supremely powerful ur right and definitwly doesnt get anywhere near the mentioning he deserves!
+Crossums Yeah man its glad to see somebody understands the SS and his power and importance i wish other ppl would too tho i mean he has the power to go against Thanos like how is he not talked about ???
Ikr? I've been asking for some silver surfer stuff for months, still nothing
Can you do a video on High Evolutionary,Luke Cage, Us Agent and The New Warriors.
why are some of the videos deleted in the play list????
I have a question, are these videos in order or should I just check the dates from when you posted it and start there to begin the story?
What is that intro? It’s so good
the grittier marvel stories seem to be always great
hes looking for planets with a great source of energy for Galactus to devour for more power. Galactus created Silver Surfer as a scout. Silver Surfer was then released due to Silver Surfers memory coming back and not wanting to be apart of the killing of innocent beings
Deondrae Porter
Not true... Surfer always took him to planets without intelligent life... Earth changed him... Terrax was the main butcher before Morg came along
@@ramtrucks721 you're wrong. I own every SS comic and you are wrong without a doubt. In fact there is a SS comic that shows the SS learning that his soul was altered to deal with the terrible things he did, plus he had Galactus pull a Jesus move and remove the sins from him.
In any event, he did bring Galactus to planets with life. You must be referring to a certain marvel story that perverted and changed his story as all marvel stories do nowadays
Thanks so much for this Rob! #yallshouldsubscribe
Rob G's Gaming We've been subbed for years, lmao!!!!
whats the name of the song at the end?
watched some video cool channel subscribed
I like this channel but I was wondering does this channel do dc comics also
I love the 40 second intro before the vid finally starts.......can you possibly make the intro even longer?
fredocorleone could your extension span be any shorter? It’s a show, An intro makes it worth the while.
sweatshopkids yeah auto text -_-
fredocorleone I'm sure you meant: "Thank you for making this video for free, that's so kind of you good sir. I learned a lot and you surely are skilled at making educational videos." Douchebag.
fredocorleone hes not complaining.. just keyboard warriors being weird lol
No, he's saying the intro is Badass! And he's right.
I missed this intro theme for this channel
Appreciated
the silver surfer is my fave character, unfortunately the movie version of the fantastic four diminished him as a character. i really hope they make a decent film and honour his origin.
do your best and try to cover as much as possible we'll be watching you
I don't know if you've done this guy yet but I think you should do a comic book explains Marvel on Shields enemy graviton
Ben Grim was f’n around. Gave Silver Surfer that fade, tearing up Galactus’s machine lol.
SS is my god! I started with the standard x-men, spiderman, etc. but got tired of earthbound heroes. Found SS and never looked back. SS found Adam Warlock, Thanos and Mephisto!!!
What is the beginning song
Why is this unlisted?
It seems intro song link in the description is no longer available. Can anyone point to the version in the intro?

Great vid, one thing though
Milky Way= Our galaxy. We don't really have a name for our solar system beyond the latin name for the sun Sol , which in english would just be the Solar system.
Link for Intro song is broken when I click the link fyi.
Song title?
