The Legion Of Substitute Surfers

OK, so there was this time when an evil god...well, actually God...absorbed the Silver Surfer's soul.

And that left his hollow shell of a body behind, which ended up being broken into 12 pieces, which an enterprising alien race ended up auctioning off to the highest bidder...

...but it turns out that whoever interacted with the pieces went through a mysterious transformation...



So soon...

...we had twelve count them twelve Silver Surfers!


Well, they go off to save this section of the universe from the Uni-Lord...but the evil god takes Norrin Radd's soul and puts it into a "blackbody," a kind of mini-clone of Galactus created by a rogue Watcher...

...but eventually they manage to beat him...

And then Norrin gets his body back and kills God and recreates the universe.

Because Jim Starlin is not the only one who can do cosmic. Yo, George Perez, represent!!

From Silver Surfer #115-117 (1996)
