Silver Surfer #12 (1970) – VG+ 4.5 – Surfer vs. The Abomination!


🪐💀 “The Good, the Bad, and the Uncanny!” — And no, it’s not a Western. But there is a monster fight and a LOT of brooding.


Here it is — Silver Surfer #12, a banger from the tail end of Marvel’s cosmic Shakespearean opera. Written by Stan “Everything Is a Moral Crisis” Lee and drawn by John “Brush of the Gods” Buscema, this issue delivers fists, philosophy, and flat-out monster beatdowns as the Surfer goes toe-to-toe with The Abomination — gamma-powered rage monster and Hulk’s meaner, uglier twin.


This isn’t your average cosmic pondering issue — it’s a full-on slobberknocker. The Abomination doesn’t want to hear about peace or Zenn-La. He wants to wreck stuff, and the Surfer is the only shiny alien around to stop him.


📉 Condition: UNGRADED, but I’ve personally graded it a 4.5 (VG+). This one’s been around the solar system a few times: some spine wear, edge rub, and light creases, but the cover still pops and the guts are all there. Solid reader copy that holds together well — no missing pages, no clipped coupons, and all the intergalactic punches intact.


Why this issue rules:

• Silver Surfer vs. The Abomination — it’s Hulk-level smash without the green guy

• Rare appearance of Abomination outside a Hulk book

• Gorgeous Bronze Age Buscema art and Stan Lee writing at full melodrama setting

• Only a few issues left before the original run ends — get ‘em while they’re not slabbed to the moon


Whether you’re a Surfer fan, a Bronze Age collector, or just into silver aliens fighting radioactive jerks who never skip back day — this issue delivers.


🚀 About me:

I’ve had an eBay store for over 20 years. I pack safe, ship fast, and treat comics better than Galactus treats planets. Check out my other Silver Surfer, Fantastic Four, and Marvel classics — there’s plenty of cosmic chaos where this came from.
