Erik Johnson Illustrator said...: It was so great that at as a tribute during high school I painstaking copied this particular picture onto a four foot tall canvas.; July 19, 2013 at 3:30 PM
Kal said...: We did a huge mural like that only I had the kids use a projector and transparancies to get the characters right. I had a bunch of stills from the Animated Spider-Man series that they included with some comics in the 90s when the series first came out. I had a great Spidey Doc Oc to trace and color. Looked awesome at the end.; July 19, 2013 at 4:33 PM
Simon B said...: This 4-issue FF / Doom / Silver Surfer story is one of the absolute high points of the Lee & Kirby years. I can't say the same for the lame way it was adapted in FF: Rise Of The Surfer :-(

There's a great moment in this comic where the Surfer asks Doom what his qualifications for being a ruler are. Doom replies "I? I am but a humble servant of my people!" Yeah, right!; July 20, 2013 at 1:13 AM
