Rated T+
Silver Surfer: Ghost Light #2 is a book that feels classic but is not old-fashioned. So much of this issue seems to contain feelings and sentiments that occurred in horror films in the Cold War era. Read Full Review
A touch of old school never hurt anybody. Showing what comics were to what they are now, how far we have come, and always remembering characters that get us there. I enjoyed this book. And I am looking forward to Silver Surfer: Ghost Light #3. Read Full Review
Silver Surfer: Ghost Light #2 spends a big chunk of its run time recapping what happened to Al Harper way back in the earliest days of the Silver Surfer comic back in the late 60s. You can't really blame writer John Jennings for wanting to go this route given so few readers will know Harper's backstory, but it does pull the focus away from the Toni & Josh angle that made the first issue such a standout.

A bit long winded, but entertaining.
"What the holy Cronenberg"? Lol. This issue was much better than the first but the story is still nothing special. Nice to have some surfer content in marvel these days even if it's really more of an Al Harper and his family story. Art is still meh.
