This
was a one-shot trade paperback jointly published by DC and
Marvel. It features the greatest cosmic villains of both
publishers, Darkseid (DC) and Galactus (Marvel) going head to
head. Galactus wants to eat Darkseid's planet of Apoklips.
This story is set when Silver Surfer served as Galactus' herald (before
he became a good guy). So Silver Surfer takes on all of Galactus'
enemies in this adventure. To beat all, DC's cosmic heroes, The
New Gods, actually step in to save Darkseid! We get to see Silver
Surfer and Orion beat the crap out of each other.
This is a cool story, and you don't have to be a regular follower of any of these characters to get into the story and enjoy it. As a matter of fact, this would be a great comic to start off with if you're trying to get into the Silver Surfer comics. You get to see Silver Surfer when he was a bad guy (under Galactus' mind control), and find out about his back story. Even though this comic was released in 1995, and the Silver Surfer had been around for three decades before, this trade paperback makes a great precursor to everything Silver Surfer (after the origin story, of course).
