What's New With the Silver Surfer?
We know the Silver Surfer is always in style with his rad surfboard - it’s iconic. But what happens when the Silver Surfer from the year 2099 comes in? He's got some new skills and even a dark side! This story unfolds in the Silver Surfer 2099 Comics!
What's Different About The Silver Surfer 2099?
In the Annihilation 2099 comics - we are introduced to Silver Surfer 2099, who doesn't work for Galactus anymore. His boss, now, is Mephisto. The devil himself! This Silver Surfer 2099 travels all around, grabbing souls for Mephisto and his new board has some cool - but kinda creepy - skills.
So How does The Silver Surfer 2099 Board Work?
- The board's got the basics that we see in the regular Silver Surfer board - so it’s a cool mode of transport, totally tough to destroy and the Silver Surfer can control it with his mind.
- We also see some extra abilities from the board in this new Silver Surfer 2099! The craziest part is it's a gateway straight to hell! Yeah, you heard me right!
- The Silver Surfer 2099 board has those runes that keep the rider, Jonah, connected to Mephisto, meaning Mephisto is in control of where he goes. When he’s needed in Hell, his board will drop him there - almost as a punishment for his actions.
- But the cool part is that he'll be transported back to where he was just seconds ago in the same instant. Talk about crazy dimension hopping! That's because he is in this dimension!
The Silver Surfer’s Board Is Now Connected To Mephisto?
- He has been tricked, maybe even brainwashed, in some cases! This was actually the main goal for Mephisto. Jonah has no choice but to go where Mephisto orders, which was his way of being tricked and enslaved.
- In a weird way, his board's power is almost like a curse, as he was tied to a dimension that made him a slave of the devil.
- And it sounds pretty dark - but those powers that we've come to love from the Norrin Radd board have been replaced by this dimension-hopping ability.
- Annihilation 2099 has a whole new style - especially the design for the new Silver Surfer's board.
What's Happening With the Silver Surfer?
It looks like this story will give the Silver Surfer and those amazing Power Cosmic abilities a total makeover! This new version of the Silver Surfer, as well as those crazy dimensions that have to be navigated - makes for one wild ride!
And get this, there are also some more runes on his board - so this might be connected to his soul! If those Silver Surfer 2099 Comics get you interested in all those stories about the Norrin Radd board or how they made their boards - maybe those characters are not all they seem!
