Slott and Allred's Silver Surfer is probably my all time favorite comic. It was so great hearing Mike talk about it! It's interesting to hear that Dan wrote full scripts for the series. There is something really unique about the Slott/Allred Silver Surfer. It kind of feels like lightning in a bottle. I remember when the series was announced and I saw the cover. I just had this weird feeling where I thought "I need to buy this issue to issue. This is gonna be something special" and I was right.
David Bowie & Marc Bolan wrote a song called MADMAN in 1977. It was never released but has been bootlegged countless time. The Cuddly Toys did release a cover in 1980. I wonder if this influenced Mike after hearing he is influenced by songs? th-cam.com/video/xYLW9w3EYSg/w-d-xo.html
Genually cheered when I saw this on my YT feed! Thanks for sharing this talk.
Far-out talk with Mike Allred. This was very fun and insightful and exciting!
Good chat, thank you for asking Mike some very insightful questions.
Thank you! He was so open to so many types of questions, I couldn't just focus on comics.

I've only read a bit of it but I think that Silver Surfer and (the Marvel cosmic stuff in general) is really the perfect venue for his style.
It's not just one of my favorite comics, it's one of my favorite stories in any medium, just perfect
There’s Mike- bona-fide Mike, just being a Madman 😆

Allred is far too talented to draw Superman comics
