Silver Surfer (1987) #51 – Cosmic Guilt Trip with a Nova Twist!
Buckle up for a soul-searching space odyssey, because Silver Surfer (1987) #51 is about to take you on an emotional ride through the stars! Published on July 1, 1991, with Ron Marz’s heartfelt script and Ron Lim’s pencils that gleam like a cosmic flare, this issue shifts the spotlight to Nova (Frankie Raye) while keeping the Silver Surfer in the mix for some stellar support. Whether you’re a collector sniffing out a character-driven gem, a fan of Norrin Radd’s cosmic crew, or just here for a galactic gut-punch, this book’s got enough heart to warm a black hole. Let’s surf into why this issue’s a shiny standout!
What’s the Cosmic Conundrum?
Nova, Galactus’ fiery herald, is used to blazing trails and scouting planets for her boss’s cosmic buffet, but this time, she’s facing a foe no flame can burn: her own guilty conscience. Every world she’s flagged for Galactus’ munchies weighs on her soul—those alien cultures, gone in a gulp. Enter the Silver Surfer, who knows a thing or two about herald heartbreak, stepping in to help Nova wrestle with her cosmic regrets. It’s less about punching bad guys and more about facing inner demons, with Marz’s writing hitting emotional notes that resonate like a Zenn-Lavian ballad. Ron Lim’s art makes Nova’s turmoil and Norrin’s empathy pop, turning cosmic vistas into a backdrop for raw, human feels. Think Inside Out in space, with the Surfer as the world’s shiniest therapist and Nova learning that even heralds cry!

Key Character Appearances
-
Nova (Frankie Raye): Galactus’ flame-haired herald takes center stage, grappling with guilt that burns hotter than her powers.
-
Silver Surfer (Norrin Radd): Our chrome champ plays cosmic counselor, lending a shiny shoulder for Nova’s woes.
-
Galactus (mentioned): The planet-eater looms large in Nova’s mind, the ultimate boss casting a shadow over her conscience.
-
Note: The cast is lean, focusing on Nova’s inner struggle and her bond with Norrin—perfect for fans of character depth over cosmic chaos.
Current Value – A Cosmic Steal with Soul!
Silver Surfer #51 is a quiet treasure, chilling in the cosmic clearance bin for savvy collectors. Raw copies in Very Fine (VF) condition fetch $5-$10, while CGC-graded 9.8s go for $50-$80, maybe more if Nova fever spikes. It’s no Silver Surfer #34 (Thanos mania), but its focus on Nova and Ron Lim’s gorgeous art give it niche appeal, especially for herald fans. Compared to the run’s big keys, this one’s like snagging a starship for the price of a sparkler—cheap, heartfelt, and ready to shine in your collection.

Expected Value Trends – Will It Blaze or Fade?
With Fantastic Four dropping in July 2025, the Surfer’s whole run is getting speculative side-eye, and Nova’s stock could rise if the MCU dives into Galactus lore. A Nova cameo (or a Captain Marvel-style cosmic tie-in) might spark interest in her ‘80s stories, pushing CGC 9.8s toward $100-$130. This issue’s emotional depth makes it a fan-favorite, and high-grade copies have inched up 10-15% over recent years. Raw copies should stay budget-friendly, ideal for readers who want feels without cosmic debt. If the MCU skips Nova or keeps Galactus offscreen, growth might stall—but Ron Lim’s art and Marz’s writing keep this a safe bet for long-term love. Bonus: If a Nova Disney+ series ever happens (fingers crossed), this character study could become a sleeper hit.

Sony STR-AN1000 Malfunctioning
Style: STR-AN1000 AV Receiver only
I had the previous model which started Malfunctioning after about 10 years so I decided to replace it with this. I bought the 'renewed' new model. This started failing almost immediately. The logic constantly malfunctions; the input selection stopped working, the remote doesn't respond, it goes into mute. I'm unplugging it every few days to get the unit to thing to start functioning again. Initially I thought it was operator error but the errors started increasing with frequency. The malfunctions seemed similar to my old 8 year old model. I got less than 6 months of use out of this and now I have to replace it. Specs might be good on paper, the sound is decent for its class but I think that even my 10-year old 1050 should have lasted longer.

FM Antenna
Style: STR-AN1000 AV Receiver only
The Sony receiver is a good piece of equipment but it lacks an FM antenna to receive channel's in the local area.
I understand signal propagation, bandwidth, side lobs and RF dead spots and bit more.
I can get a $12 box radio set it up in the same spot and the reception is great. nuff said
