Silver Surfer has long been one of the most beloved Marvel heroes ever, and still somehow feels underrated in the grand scheme of Marvel heroes, and now the creative team of John Jennings and Valentine De Landro is crafting a brand new story about the hero; and an entirely new character.

The series will introduce Ghost Light, who is a brand new Marvel character that is 54 years in the making and is all the incentive we need to pick up this issue the second we can when it arrives this February.
