The Silver Surfer decides that his fight with the Hulk is over. And just like that, countless playground arguments were settled: the Surfer could beat the Hulk. But don't worry, that isn't the topic here. We're here to give props to this page's artist.
Marie Severin was a pioneer, and one of the unsung pillars of early Marvel comics. And in this page by Severin, every panel moves the plot forward: Hulk attacks the Surfer on the first panel, the Surfer dodges easily on the second (and note that the rock comes from the direction of the first panel, and Surfer is flying in that same direction, making the action flow perfectly in our minds).
On the third panel, Severin gives us the Hulk's perspective of the Surfer's charge. On the fourth panel, the decisive impact, underlined by a dynamic sound effect! On the fifth, the Hulk falls. And on the sixth panel, the Surfer rests - and approaches the Hulk with curiosity, setting the stage for further shenanigans. Severin's storytelling seems simple, but there's a lot of craft behind these bright colors.
