Silver Surfer Suffers From the Donald Duck Effect in Next Week's The Best Defense

The Silver Surfer is back, and if you're wondering how he's spent his time away since his last ongoing series, the answer is that he's been playing a lot of Red Dead Redemption 2. At least, that's the conclusion we're forced to come to after seeing his new cowboy getup in this preview from next week's The Best Defense: Silver Surfer.

Silver Surfer Suffers From the Donald Duck Effect in Next Week's The Best Defense

Well, it's one of the conclusions, at least. The other is, jeeze dude, put on some pants.

Yes, we know that the Silver Surfer never wears pants, but somehow, when he's fully naked, it doesn't seem quite so obscene. It's something known as the Donald Duck effect. Donald, as a cartoon duck, wouldn't seem out of place if he were naked all the time. Ducks don't generally wear clothes, and he's got feathers besides. But because Donald wears that sailor shirt and hat, it just highlights the fact that he's choosing to go bottomless.

The same thing applies here, and Marvel should really add more shadows to Batpenis the Surfer's smooth groin away.

The Best Defense: Silver Surfer hits stores on Wednesday. See a preview below, pilfered from an AV Club EX-X-XCLUSIVE.

A prophecy once said that in the comic book industry's darkest days, a hero would come to lead the people through a plague of overpriced floppies, incentive variant covers, #1 issue reboots, and super-mega-crossover events. Sadly, that prophecy was wrong. Oh, Jude Terror was right. For ten years. About everything. But nobody listened. And so, Jude Terror has moved on to a more important mission: turning Bleeding Cool into a pro wrestling dirt sheet!
