So, what really happened when Dr Doom stole the Silver Surfer's power?

The original story was one of the highpoints of the Silver Age, FANTASTIC FOUR# 57. It provided most of the plot for the second Fantastic Four movie, as well. But it was not until NOT BRAND ECCH# 1 in 1967 that Stan Lee and Jack Kirby let us in on the real events behind the legends.

Worth checking at the higher size for the surfing cross medallion, the book BUTTERFLIES I HAVE LOVED and more.

How funny do you think it would be if the talent at Marvel got to do satirical send ups of each other today ???

I love how Stan and Jack were aware enough of the flaws in their work that they could cheerfully lampoon it with such reckless abandon. It's a type of humility that a number of comics creators today could stand a bit of.

This may be the only reference I've seen in Silver Age comics to going to the bathroom.
