Silver Surfer In His OTHER #1, Taking Bids At Heritage Auctions

Silver Surfer has had many different #1's over the years, but it is the first issue of Volume 2 that trips people up so much. At my shop that I run, I still get people to this day bringing me this issue, claiming it to be his first appearance. Too funny, and don't get me wrong, this is an excellent issue with a gorgeous cover by John Byrne. It is just funny to me that people still think this is his debut. Heritage Auctions is taking bids today for a CGC 9.8 copy of the book, as of this writing, at $130. Check it out below.
