Truly, this was the best way to honor both a friend and loved one. We can all feel the respect and love that you had for him, and why you chose this story. Wishing you well, Rob.
When does a man die? When he is hit by a bullet? No! When he suffers a disease? No! When he ate a soup made out of a poisonous mushroom? No! When his heart stops? No! A man dies when he is forgotten! And we will never forget you, Surfer. Even if it is an alternate reality Surfer, it's good sendoff for him. We're all going to miss him. Good-bye, friend.
Do you know I read the first part of your comment and thought you were talking about Benny and how he would never die because he’s always going to be on RUclips!
@Apollo-fp4cu it's funny that you mention that! I went to a big comicon last weekend and was looking for anyone with a SS shirt, and only saw one other guy who did. Not that wearing a shirt is THE indicator of a persons favorite superhero, but I kinda expected more.
@@coreypacillo8204 I think because the sellers think that silver surfer shirts don't sell because there are no movies about silver surfer,but I think silver surfer is in the top 5 of many marvel fans
What are some good runs for silver surfer that are not only good for action but like deep character work? A run that explores a lot of big questions? Or is silver surfer not that kind of character?
I could’t watch this in one sitting without crying, what a beautiful requiem for a friend. I’m so sorry for your loss Rob, we are all gonna miss him very much
ROB !!! Good to hear/ see you in good spirits man! Continue to be strong , aware, vulnerable and take your time we as a community are here for as well as with you !
It isn't lost that this video comes after you've experienced a tragic loss yourself. This is the beauty of comics. They can help us deal with the most monumental of challenges. God speed my brother.
Hey Rob, I’ve never commented on one of your videos before but I’m compelled to now. Firstly I’d like to say I’m so sorry for your loss, words cannot express the feeling of losing a true friend and I know there’s not much solace in any condolence I can relay. That said, I wanted to express my gratitude. For many years I struggled through the rigors of medical school and residency and all of the extreme highs and lows that accompany those long hours filled with painful doubt and anxiety among other emotions. Your videos however, brought me laughter, happiness, a feeling of comfort and many other things during those hard years. Your videos kept me strong and determined. I would turn them on in the background and listen to them for hours and hours. So for all that you’ve done for me, it seems only fair I express my undying gratitude. I don’t know you personally, but I am who I am today and have achieved what I have in no small part thanks to you and your channel. So thank you. I am truly heartbroken for you and I just hope you know that how you were there for me those years, we are here for you. “Life doesn’t give us purpose, we give life purpose” -Barry Allen. Thank you Rob.
The description and feeling of the surf board is how I describe riding a motorcycle, it's is freedom and fear that combine to form an appreciation of life. The Comicstorian channel lead me to this one and others... Learn to appreciate what life presents RIP Benny
I'm 49. I've been following you for years and never commented but maaaaan, you' and Ben have brought back my love for comics! I'm giving you your flowers 🌷 🌷 now Rob. I'm glad you're back. Benny would've wanted you to keep it going. We need you bro.
Though the story has been covered, I never grow tired of hearing it. Truly one of the best stories to come out of Marvel and always well told by Rob. Managed to get my hardcover copy of Silver Surfer: Requiem signed and sketched by Esad Ribic himself. Still looking for Straczynski.
You covered this story years ago. Not complaining just brings back memories of watching you and Benny and how as an adult y'all got me to keep up with comics even if i couldn't spare the time to read them. I remember you covering this one and it made me pick it up. The story is just beautiful and was one of the main comics i told friends to read. Glad you did an updated video on it to give it more coverage
*What? No, he’s not.* He’s been one of the most popular Marvel characters since the 80’s. He’s had amazing and extremely successful storylines in the past few years and has never been irrelevant. Every comic book fan knows him. He’s been in a live action movie.
The reason that this story is so beautiful is because it's very personal. Joe Straczynski wrote this story as a eulogy to his long-term friend Andreas Katsulas who passed away from cancer back in February 2006. Andreas played the alien ambassador G'Kar on the sci-fi TV show Babylon 5 which Straczynski created. This was his way of eulogizing his friend. This was a very good story to cover. Rest in peace, Benny.❤
JMS was also very enamored with that idea of connecting people's minds to end conflict; it was pretty much the big solution to everything in the finale of his Rising Stars series, which was just a couple years before Requiem.
For the first time (even though having never read this in person) a comic has made me cry. Your telling of this story and with your recent life event still on my mind just made it all so real. I couldnt help but start crying starting at the Mary J section. The one thing that all humanity needs is to see it self in a life where we no longer matter because the picture/scale is so vast, that our petty squabbles mean nothing. Thank you for this video. Ill be for sure buying the collection.
I’m glad your back. I remember back in 2016 someone in my college library watching you and I responded like a douche bag said “dude watch ComicStorian instead- he’s better”. Shortly after I found out you two were IRL friends and I felt very wholesome about this as I was glad you two became best friends instead of rivals. I was so shocked when he passed and I loved the video you made as a tribute to him. I subbed as I know if anyone deserves to continue the mantle of the comic book RUclipsr it’s you. Sending my love and regards ❤
Thank you for covering this story. Alot of people are with you right now and from the bottom of my heart I thank you for giving me this video at this time in my life.
Its literally the best thing the comic book medium has ever produced. Its not even close. Norrin Radd will always be my favorite comic character and this is how his story ends. I don't care what some movie or book tries to retcon after this. This is how Silver Surfer ends.
Welcome back friend. We all have one thing in common. The pain of losing someone we love, and like us, you fought through it to come back and not quit or give up. Brave soul we are proud of you.
This is a beautiful story. It touches the heart of all people going through loss. Its a reminder that when they go, they wont be gone, they will simply become a brilliant shinning star in the vastness of space. Forever watching over you and all generations to come. Until the end of time. Truly such an aspiring message and i will cherish this one closely. Thank you rob!
This hit different. Ben got me back into comics after a long time not reading them. Funny enough Rob, his channel led me to yours. You guys are important to a lot of people.
My comics journey started with finding the first 20 issues of silver surfer in my dad's closet. Seems fitting that the first video back is this one. I can't tell you how many times I fell asleep to your voice/video and woke up to one of Benny's playing . Glad to have you back man. Both your and Benny's fans need these videos to try to feel normal again
Not me trying to hold back tears at work understanding the meaning and subtext behind the story you chose. Thank you and sending all the prayers and strength your way 🙏🏾
Dang Rob, this story was beautiful. I don’t think I was prepared for it to be so good. It’s great to have you back, my friend. We all so appreciate you. I’m genuinely so sorry about your personal loss. We all loved Benny. Thank you for your passion. Best wishes ❤
This story is truly special and everything you been through recently... for the first time in this channel, i actually shed tears. This was beautiful, thank you for sharing this, Rob and welcome back 🥲
Welcome back rob. Thank you for continuing. With benny gone... I feel like all we have left is u, to bring the same joy and energy yall both brought us with these volumes. Thank you. Also.... I feel like this was a perfect story to send benny off. The light he gave us with comics and the sacrifice he gave us with his time and dedication for us to enjoy what we all love as comics. Thank you benny and rob
Beautiful story one of the best characters created,they should make a movie out of this or anime movie.Silver Surfer has a beautiful spirit and he is an amazing hero for marvel respect.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Last year, one of the worst things could of ever happened to me I lost my sister to some crazy circumstances And it trully affected me so heavily I cried on the steps of my school and at that time The only thing that could take away some of that pain was music and watching your videos. You were there for me When you didn't even know it ❤❤❤❤I'm trully sorry for your loss rob 🇿🇦

I can't think of a better story for you to come back and cover. I'm not sure there would be a better way to cope and honor your friend than with a story like this. We'll be here when you're ready to come back, my friend. 🙏❤️
Thank you for posting this. It is without a doubt, one of the most compelling stories in the Marvel Universe and one befitting to one of the most honorable beings, whoever lived.
One of many but imo, this upload truly captures the essence of the goodness of humanity. There have been many throughout time and their importance to carry the legacies of history, follies of man, and every love to never truly be lost In sharing his love and passion for narrative, heroes, comics, Rob has unknowingly transformed into that very thing. Rob is The Storyteller. Thanks man, truly
This really is my Favorite Story from Marvel and was actually my first signed Comic I ever bought. Found out about it initially through your old Video. Simply amazing.
Rob: In times of grief, we often seek something that helps us cope with our losses. In sharing this story, I hope that it brings you a measure of contentment in your times of sadness, knowing that you, as did the Silver Surfer, have shared moments of light that remind us of how we are alike. We unite through our love of art and comics and you have been instrumental in guiding and feeding that love. Personally, I appreciate you brotha. You never have to question whether or not you have brought joy into this world. You have.
Welcome back Robb. My condolences to you for the loss of Benny. You comic book RUclipsrs have touched our lives in ways you couldn’t imagine, especially you. You don’t just get a million subscribers without being a big deal and touching people’s lives. This is a beautiful tribute/dedication to Benny.
Thanks for being back so soon Rob. I've been really affected by the news. It's so hard to not watch his videos right now. It hurts too bad. But I wanted to say thank you for doing what you both loved so much. I'm sure you were a wonderful friend to him.
I've been watching your channel now since my life went head over heels in 2017. Your storytelling has brought me through harder times and to joy when I thought I was never going to feel good again. This story was another of those moments where I cant help myself but to say thank you Rob. Thank you for reading to me. Thank you for being here. You mean the world to me and I hope you can read this and know that.
What an incredibly beautiful story. Man, I hope that you, Rob, understand the impact your life has had on all of us. I don't think we need to wait until someone is dying to show them that they matter.
I cried my eyes out. I lost my grandfather and best friend a couple years ago. Thank you so much for this. It’s been really rough without them but this gives me hope.
A beautiful story, I am sorry for your loss. Still makes me cry, he's the reason my love for comics survived growing up along with yourself. And this some of the lines in this story just break me up right now.
Hope you're holding up well, and I think this story comes at a necessary time for you about death. Thank you for sharing your feelings and this beautiful story with us. ✊🏾
I've been with your channel for about 7 or 8 years now. I understand your loss and pain. But this story is a testament to no one dies as long as they are remembered. Glad to have you back. But I'm more sorry for your loss. I imagine that you keep going because this is what he would want you to do. Stay strong and stay golden. From Fresno CA. You and he both are family forever because of the Joy you bring through the good, bad, and ugly. Much love to you Rob.
We've all got your back through this tough situation, sending all the positivity and hope and joy we can your way man! It's great to hear you back sharing in our mutual love of comics
Beautiful story man. Benny is out there somewhere, a part of us all is made from stars and back to stars we go. Let's live and love until we're one with the universe again
When written well, The Silver Surfer is one of the best characters in comics. Has been one of my faves since the 80s. And this story did SO WELL by him! Thanks for covering it, Rob!
Silver Surfer has always been my favorite character. damn, this video was good. made me cry, made me think, made me miss my parents, made me wonder about it all.
Thank you for that Rob! My guy…. Silver Surfer is my top 3 favorite superhero’s of all time. I never knew that story. So thank you for that. Also, if you could do more Silver Surfer stories that would be great.
Beautiful story and amazing way for a beautiful soul to pass on. Keep making content. I love you guys, ive been watching since i was in middle school and im going to bars now. All of your guys' content helped turn me into the person i am now Comics Explained, Comicsrorian, RnBE, Comic Experiments. You guys made my adolescence and this is a beautiful send-off
Bro you got me crying in here. You have the unparalleled gift of making words MATTER when I watch your videos. I’ve never got to say thank you for sharing your gift with us, my friend you are amazing. 🙏🏾

This story isn’t cannon right⁉️ Excuse my ignorance I’m just trying make sure it isn’t
@@2123lottoit is, it just didn't happen on the main universe
Finding peace in comic death when a great friend dies. Beautiful. Benny's memory lives on.
When does a man die? When he is hit by a bullet? No! When he suffers a disease? No! When he ate a soup made out of a poisonous mushroom? No! When his heart stops? No! A man dies when he is forgotten! And we will never forget you, Surfer.
Even if it is an alternate reality Surfer, it's good sendoff for him. We're all going to miss him. Good-bye, friend.

I think it’s almost everyone favoriete character

What an incredibly beautiful story. Man, I hope that you, Rob, understand the impact your life has had on all of us. I don't think we need to wait until someone is dying to show them that they matter.
I cried my eyes out. I lost my grandfather and best friend a couple years ago. Thank you so much for this. It’s been really rough without them but this gives me hope.
Thank you Rob for covering this story. Also my condolences. We are there for you dude.
Got to be my second favourite story of all time. So beautiful. Glad to see you're back, take it slow and I wish you all the best man.
As soon as Rob says, "It's the most beautiful story" my eyes started welling because I knew what time it was. Rest in the Most Peace Benny.
A beautiful story, I am sorry for your loss. Still makes me cry, he's the reason my love for comics survived growing up along with yourself. And this some of the lines in this story just break me up right now.
Hope you're holding up well, and I think this story comes at a necessary time for you about death. Thank you for sharing your feelings and this beautiful story with us. ✊🏾
Lots of onions in my room rn. Tough to watch at the moment. Heart you Rob
I've been with your channel for about 7 or 8 years now. I understand your loss and pain. But this story is a testament to no one dies as long as they are remembered. Glad to have you back. But I'm more sorry for your loss. I imagine that you keep going because this is what he would want you to do. Stay strong and stay golden. From Fresno CA. You and he both are family forever because of the Joy you bring through the good, bad, and ugly. Much love to you Rob.
We've all got your back through this tough situation, sending all the positivity and hope and joy we can your way man! It's great to hear you back sharing in our mutual love of comics
Beautiful story man. Benny is out there somewhere, a part of us all is made from stars and back to stars we go. Let's live and love until we're one with the universe again
When written well, The Silver Surfer is one of the best characters in comics. Has been one of my faves since the 80s. And this story did SO WELL by him! Thanks for covering it, Rob!
Good to have you back and the perfect story to come back with. Always be remembered with love and honor, to truly live in our hearts forever.
Silver Surfer has always been my favorite character.
damn, this video was good.
made me cry, made me think, made me miss my parents, made me wonder about it all.
Thank you for that Rob! My guy…. Silver Surfer is my top 3 favorite superhero’s of all time. I never knew that story. So thank you for that. Also, if you could do more Silver Surfer stories that would be great.
