I've been raving about this book for what seems like forever, but this issue shows that this team not only has a perfect eye for dialogue, setup, exciting stories and drama, they know how to pull off an excellent ending as well. So few comics get any kind of ending, and Marvel especially has a tendency to end with a "Toys back in the box! Undo everything so the next guy can work with a clean slate!" attitude, but Silver Surfer #14 shows how to do that with flair, emotion and craft. Read Full Review

The true gift of Silver Surfer was seeing what's possible when one consistent creative team is allowed to run wild on a property. We can only hope it inspires other books to follow its example. Read Full Review

The story's not perfect - there are some moments that ask a bit too much of the reader's credulity, and the inside jokes go a little overboard from time to time - but overall, it's an entertaining collection of clever, touching stories that take the Surfer in fresh new directions. Read Full Review

Even as a lapsed fan, Silver Surfer elicited a strong emotional response"if you quit reading the run early, make sure to circle back to the end! Read Full Review

There was a deeper soul to this series, underneath the wild artwork and the clever twists. And while this finale might be imperfect in that regard, we all get to mourn Dawn Greenwood, as the Silver Surfer makes his last flight with a truly wonderful creative team. Read Full Review

I guess knowing that the Greenwood’s + Costas & HoloNorrin live on as holograms on Inkandessa 4 is supposed to make the reader feel better, but it really didn’t do that at all. A true heartbreaker

A touching afterward reveals how the Surfer has memorialized Dawn. He did three tributes, all of which are clever and fulfilling. This is less of a standalone story than the previous issue, but as the conclusion to a series, it plays symphonically on all the emotional bonds forged with faithful readers. It also achieves something I would have sworn was impossible: It *completely* redeems all of the Nor-Vill foreshadowing seeded through the previous volume. A perfectly satisfying (maybe also emotionally exhausting) way to conclude Dawn Greenwood's story.

Soooo Gooood....

PERFECT

a perfect series.

A satisfactory end to this classic run. With Marvel running empty on creativity, we are unlikely to see its like again. This was the last marvel title on my pull list, and had managed to stay fairly clear of the liberal preaching. I am unlikely to buy a Marvel title regularly until they change their ways.

I feel like issue 13 was perhaps a more fitting ending to the series, and that this issue isn't entirely necessary. That said, it is a very good issue and a good conclusion to one of the greatest series I can remember. Slott and Allred's "Silver Surfer" is unlike anything else that has come from the last few years, so fun and full of intelligence and heart. Dawn Greenwood will always be remembered by Surfer fans.
