Question about Doom and Surfer

[Tanjint]

At SDCC, Scott Kolins drew me a sick ass full page of Doctor Doom crackling with the Silver Surfer's power.

He said it was from a story that he really liked in which Doom takes Surfer's powers and is overwhelmed by them.

I can't recall which story this is.....does anyone else?

Let's see, Wikipedia says that Doom stole the Surfer's powers in Fantastic Four #57 in December '66, and lost them in issue #60 March '67.

[Iron Maiden]

That would be Jack Kirby's famous splash page from FF #57

Here's the original and another tribute along side from Silver Surfer: Loftier than Mortals mini series from a few years back:

Sal Velutto's rendition is on the left, the Jack Kirby/Joe Sinnott orginal is on the right complete with the famous Kirby Krackle.

I cannot agree with that statement. SS#1, standing on the board, right arm and fingers outstretched.

Yes, it has been published as part of the Masterworks series.
One online store I've used quite a bit is Tales of Wonder. Here's a listing of the volume that contains FF 51-60. Your Scott Kolins page is from issue #57 FF Masterworks Volume 6 (http://talesofwonder.com/product-exec/product_id/47917/category_id/32/sc/1,21,30,32)

Seriously, if Kirby drew a picture of a banana against a white background, I wouldnt be able to stop staring at it. His work is the dictionary definition of Awesome.

I cannot agree with that statement. SS#1, standing on the board, right arm and fingers outstretched.

I agree, that's definitely his iconic image. It's on a stamp and everything!
