Silver Surfer III

This page: 25-31

After a period of civil war inside Marvel, during which I made clear to the public what was going on, the Editor-in-Chief made me an offer: I could have six months or so to wrap up SILVER SURFER with no interference, but then I'd be gone. Under the circumstances, I took the deal. The title of #25, the first issue under this arrangement, was "Back from Black?", with the question mark, but it turned out to be so.

Marvel continued with its plan to end innovation across the line, but they retained some people they'd otherwise have ditched to make it less obvious (Jim Starlin even got to use Thanos). As with THE NEW GUARDIANS, I took one for the team - but despite the benefits it conveyed, I can't say I personally enjoyed it all that much.

When I left, Clumsy Foulup ruled the Kree Empire, and four years later, Marvel was bankrupt.
