Cates is not a bad writer but his style is not what I imagine for Silver Surfer, ugh.
Yeah, not entirely sold that Cates is the best suited writing-wise for this. I’ll give it a shot though.
to be honest what concerns me more (no pun intended) is the artist. I am not a fan of his previous work and after Allred (whose art i detested, surfer looking like a cartoon character with no sense of power or majesty) I am starting to lose faith in whomever is choosing the artists for his books. Give me the old days of Lim or Kirby artists that seemed to truly understand surfer. I enjoyed some of the painted artwork from the 2000s mini series but I just can't get behind this style of art with surfer. It is a shame cos I have a complete surfer run until Allred came on board
Is this cover...a Jojo reference!?
Silver Surfer Black.
Norrins back... And he's pissed.
I can't say I'm all that happy it's more Cates, as I didn't like his Thanos run, but it's Surfer, so I will be there
I will raise my throne above the Stars of God
Don't they mean "Art by Trad Moore...for like an issue or two"
Don't know much at all about Cates, but I'm always down for more Silver Surfer. I'll give this a spin, see how it goes. Tradd Moore is a good fit for this kind of SS joint.
I guess you're not a major comic writer without at least taking a stab at the Surfer.
Maybe worth a look-see.

Yeah the art here is not to my liking for surfer
Granted it's only one image but it is what they are using to promote the art for the book
I liked ron Lima surfer and surfer from the 70s a lot
This looks too alien Gray for me
It is at least better than his recent run which I thought was horrible
Imo
