Steve Englehart abruptly left the book, so now we get a two-issue fill-in before the important and terrific Jim Starlin run begins.
In #32, Silver Surfer fights Mephisto and recaps some of his long history, facing dream-versions of past foes like Dr. Doom, In-Betweener, and Abomination.
#33, which was published during the Acts of Vengeance event, bills itself as “Acts of Idiocy.” It’s an attempt at humor starring Impossible Man.
I’m still billing it as an A of V crossover, even though Loki’s not a part of it.
Creators: Jim Valentino, Ron Frenz (#32), Ron Lim (#33)
Grade: C
