The Sentry was a beloved hero, fighting crime before the Fantastic Four took their fateful trip to the stars. He fought all manner of costumed villainy, making the notion of costumed crimefighting accepted by New York's citizenry. He fought alongside the Fantastic Four, Hulk, and Spider-Man, the ideal they tried to measure up to.

Bob Reynolds, teetering on the edge of both alcoholism and a failed marriage, wakes up to discover his true nature. He does so in time to begin rebuilding his life. The evil entity known as the Void is returning to Earth. Reynolds dons his Sentry uniform once more and has to unravel the conspiracy to erase his memory from mankind before the Void arrives.

Ready for the final battle, Marvel's premier hero is backed up by his closest friends, Mr. Fantastic, X-Men's Angel, the Hulk and Spider-Man. Could they be enough to stop an evil as powerful as the Void?

From the Publisher
Paul Jenkins is an acclaimed writer of Peter Parker: Spider-Man, having established himself on DC Comics' Hellblazer.  Jae Lee is artist of Fantastic Four: 1234.

The Silver Surfer is one of the best series ever done. The scripting is truly eloquent.
The true merit of a comic illustrator's art is how it shows up without color, and John Buscema's work shines in this volume. Buscema has always been one of comic's finest artists: no flash, no exaggerated figures...just technical perfection. Jack Kirby provides the art for the final story in the book.
The Surfer meets up with many Marvel luminaries, including Thor, Spider-Man, The Inhumans and the Human Torch, and faces off against Mephisto, The Flying Dutchman, The Stranger and many more mundane menaces that are given extra life in these stories.
Of all the great "relevant" sixties comics, The Silver Surfer stories have probably withstood the test of time the best. Definitely a must-have volume.
