I love the Silver Surfer. By far he is my favorite super-hero, so I was very interested in reading this Marvel Universe novel. I was however a little bit disappointed with the way the Surfer was portrayed in this tale. I feel that it did not match my take on the Sky Rider of the Spaceways. I also did not like the character Prodion; I feel that Friedman missed a great chance to create a truly remarkable entity. Still the story was worth reading, with the Fantastic Four, Blastaar and the Surfer in the Negative Zone; you know interesting things will develop. The super villain Blastaar was perfectly written.
