Stan Lee & Moebius

Stan Lee (American writer/editor) and Moebius (Jean Giraud, French artist) collaborated on the Silver Surfer-Parable miniseries (published Dec 1988–Jan 1989). Stan Lee co-created characters such as Spider-Man, Fantastic Four and X-Men; Moebius is known for visual, art-comics works including Arzach and The Incal.

Silver Surfer-Parable was published in the U.S. by Epic Comics (Marvel) in 1988/1989 and later collected by Panini Comics/Marvel Italia (2004). Stan Lee was a central figure at Marvel; Moebius is celebrated for a pictorial, art-focused approach to comics.

The available review treats Silver Surfer-Parable as an art-forward Moebius triumph with a Stan Lee script that has been re-evaluated over time. It situates the 1988/89 miniseries within late-1980s comics shifts and discusses themes of religion and myth. Overall reception in the review is mixed: praise for Moebius's visuals and cautious reassessment of Lee's poetic intentions.

For:Readers interested in comics history, fans of Silver Surfer, admirers of Moebius and Stan Lee, and those who follow art-forward graphic storytelling.
