Anyways, great comic. First writer in a long time that has properly written Surfer. Also, it's great to see black people get a little shine in comics. Classic comic.

😐

Has anyone posted the page where Surfer said after the fact that none of their attacks had a chance of hurting him? If not, here it is:

I'll take Dwayne McDuffie, the man behind JLU and a bunch of other great stuff, over Jeff Loeb any day of the week 😐

And as I recall Loeb is currently writing Wolverine 😖hifty:

Thats just ridiculous. Note the BP sig and avy, but thats thats ****ing ridiculous. I thought we would, as Ben described it, Ben and Silver fighting while T'Challa outsmarts him. Instead T'Challa overpowers Surfer. Damn, that even felt ridiculous to type.

McDuffie has already admitted that he made mistakes before, but this one is huge. Does he realize Surfer's anatomy is only outwardly humanoid, thats all? Does he realize the literally million of ways SS could have used the power cosmic to effortlessly free himself? Does he have an inkling as to how strong Norrin is?

That was just painful to read and has effectively killed my interest in this story. I just want to know what's going to happen in this "fight" next issue.

Actually he was talking to the other three (Ben, Johhny and Ororo) and telling them that he can take anything the three of them can throw at him but that T'Challa can't take an attack from him.

Which really just adds to the absurdity of the whole thing.

He didn't say their attacks wouldn't hurt him; he said he would just survive them. There is a big difference there.

Maybe if we're making cartoons.

Long Halloween, Dark Victory and Superman For All Seasons trash anything McDuffie has written for comics.

That's one thing i've gotta say about Loeb.

He may job other heroes willy nilly, but he gets the character of Batman and Superman.

I don't have SFAS, only due to it not being at my local borders, and i'm trepidatious about the art.

Hell, later in this issue T'Challa starts acting like he leads the team and a fight nearly breaks out between Ben and himself and he actually thinks he can beat Ben as well.

So assuming Norrin, being as smart of guy as he is, knows the easiest way to get answers from T'Challa is to make him THINK he's in control of the situation.

I used to get mad seeing Loeb job out so many characters but I've gotten to the point where it just makes me laugh. Loeb writes plenty of crap (Onslaught Reborn anyone?) but most of his work is very entertaining.

My issue is not about accepting SS could defeat Supes...my issue is that SS can beat Orion.

That is all.


CAN. And Orion can beat Surfer.

They are pretty much equals.

BP> Slade, and at least BP had some hokey hold on Surfer.

The only advantage BP has over Slade is tech. Even their intelligence is up for debate since since Slade's I.Q is pretty much unattainable by anyone without superhuman intelligence. It was estimated at 400 or something in the issue where he first appears and when he trained Terra.

So why did they attack the surfer in the first place if they just wanted to ask him a question...Johnny and Ben could have simply asked Norrin.

Thats just horrible writing really. I don't see how BP could move or react fast enough to leap onto Surfer's board that can go millions of times the speed of light.

I am now more inclined to think that Surfer got punked by Galactus in the Annihilation series.. Instead of an upgrade, he got a downgrade..lol
Its probably why his got that smile look on him everytime Surfers is around, trying to keep himself LOL..
