So, that mixed with the unparalleled cosmic power of the Silver Surfer, and the ultimate Galactus-killer is born. Basically, the Black Racer is a god-killer who literally can’t die given that he’s actually Death. Darkseid then anchored Death to a physical host, which turned the Black Racer into Darkseid’s greatest weapon against other New Gods. The Racer was born after Darkseid conquered Apokolips and then captured an aspect of Death. The Black Racer is quite literally the physical manifestation of an aspect of Death. While the power of the Silver Surfer has already been highlighted, that of the Black Racer is even more impressive, and is the reason this Silver Surfer variant could defeat the classic Galactus with ease. The Silver Racer is the amalgamation of Marvel’s Silver Surfer and DC’s Black Racer. However, as strong as he is, the Silver Surfer is nothing compared to the Silver Surfer's DC crossover variant: the Silver Racer. His powers include classic superhuman abilities like strength, speed, and flight, along with some of the more impressive powers, like cosmic energy manipulation/absorption, self-sustenance (allowing him to live in space), and near-invulnerability. As the Silver Surfer, Norrin is one of the most powerful beings in the universe, and the confirmed most powerful Herald of Galactus.

So, Galactus imbued Norrin with the Power Cosmic, transforming him forever into the Silver Surfer. Lucky for Radd, that was an acceptable exchange, as Galactus was in need of a new Herald at that point in time. Norrin pleaded with Galactus, and even offered his life to save the countless lives of his people. Norrin Radd became the Herald of Galactus known as the Silver Surfer after Galactus came to Norrin’s planet with the intention of consuming it. I’m nervous about the changes happening at DC, but I’ve put my trust in James Gunn’s leadership.While the original Silver Surfer of Marvel’s Earth-616 universe is immensely powerful on a cosmic scale, he is nothing compared to his DC crossover variant, as that version could take down Galactus with a single hit–and there’s one very specific reason as to how that’s even possible. We’re getting a younger version of him this time, and hopefully a story we haven’t seen yet. It’ll be weird to see someone else play the Man of Steel after Henry Cavill, but I’m excited about this new take on the character. We know he’s got a script ready to go, so now it’s time to put some faces to those characters and start this party. We’ve got less than a month, folks it’s almost time!įollowing the worldwide press tour, Gunn will likely get to work on casting Superman: Legacy. It’d be great to see that translate to the screen!Īt the moment, Gunn is busy promoting the third and final Guardians of the Galaxy, which is set to release on May 5. We’ve seen these types of crossovers happen in comics over the years.

But all discussions have been very, very light and fun.” I would be lying to say that we haven’t discussed it. “I think we have to establish what we’re doing first. “That’s many years away, though,” he says. “I’m certain that’s more likely now that I’m in charge ,” he said. Speaking to Empire, Gunn admitted that they’d talked about the possibility. Here’s what James Gunn had to say about that! James Gunn on the possibility of a Marvel-DC crossover And since he’s worked both with Marvel and DC, we can’t help but wonder: will he ever bring these two worlds together? Will there ever be a Marvel-DC crossover? James Gunn has made a lot of moves over the last few years, and we can expect many more. He made us fall in love with the unruly Guardians of the Galaxy, and now he’s teaming up with Peter Safran to relaunch the DC Cinematic Universe, starting with a new Superman movie.
