10 Things We Learned From Marvel's June 2019 Solicitations

7. ...And So Does Silver Surfer!

Silver Surfer Black
Marvel Comics

Writer Donny Cates has been helming some of Marvel's best works over the last couple of years, with Venom in particular being a surprise hit of 2018. Cates has recently turned his attention to the cosmic corners of the Marvel Universe with Guardians of the Galaxy (go check it out), and spinning out of that comic comes a whole new Silver Surfer book, dubbed Silver Surfer: Black.

Mild Spoilers for Guardians of the Galaxy #1!

The first issue of Cates' Guardians opened up with some of Marvel's most important cosmic characters getting sucked up into a black hole thanks to a plot masterminded by Thanos' Black Order, and the Surfer ends up being one of their victims. It is from that premise that Cates will tell the latest chapter in the Surfer's long-running history, joined by artist Tradd Moore.

It's worth noting that Black will be a five-issue mini-series, but could this preempt more adventures with Norrin Radd? Here's hoping.
