We live in a time when men claim to be great in their rhetoric but their actions say otherwise. And even though they claims for these men are confirmed false, they still have thousands of die hard supporters. If only we had a silver alien from another planet to testify to humanity and call out these false saviors.
Unfortunately, this is the real world so we won't get the Silver Surfers help but we have the next best thing: Silver Surfer: Parable - the collected trade by Stan Lee and Moebius (Jean Giraud) published originally by Epic Comics and later collected in trade by Marvel. Maybe if we can convince everyone on the planet to read this comic, we will have less strife in the world.
Silver Surfer: Parable is a really great read. The immediate attraction is the great Moebius art. His unique and detailed take of Galactus and the Silver Surfer are fantastic. You also are getting Stan Lee writing a comic in almost 20 years. Stan Lee is at his peak with the dialogue through the 2 issues. This was written in the late 80s were the rule of the land according to Wall Street's Gordon Gecko was "Greed is good." Lee and Moebius put out a book that stated beware false idols that espoused avarice and power because they will lead to your downfall.
