Silver Surfer: Rebirth #1 — Mico Suayan Color‑Splash Sketch Variant, Signed (COA)

Near Mint, ungraded Silver Surfer: Rebirth #1 — Mico Suayan color‑splash sketch variant. This is a convention/retailer sketch edition (artist sketch variant) with selective vivid color “light‑beam” finishes applied over a black & white sketch cover. Copy is sold ungraded and is stored in a clear sleeve with a backing board; photos show the exact copy offered.

Condition & grading: I rate this copy Near Mint. Interior pages and the central artwork are clean and well preserved. There is minor handling/edge wear visible in a few small spots typical for a handled sketch variant (visible in photos), but no major creases, tears, or stains. This item is ungraded — no third‑party slab is included.

Signature, COA & presentation: Hand‑signed by Mico Suayan in blue ink across the upper portion of the cover (signature placement shown in photos). A Certificate of Authenticity from ANZ Comics dated June 3, 2025 is included and pictured. The comic has been kept in a sleeve with backing board for storage and shipping.

Notable features & collectible value: Artist sketch variant with dramatic monochrome art contrasted by selective bright light‑beam coloring — the effect highlights Silver Surfer and surrounding characters (including Thanos and Adam Warlock) and is the primary visual/rarity draw. This is an artist/collector focused variant rather than a mass retail foil; its appeal is strongest to fans of Mico Suayan, collectors of artist variants, and those completing a Silver Surfer run. Signed Suayan sketch variants with a COA typically carry a premium to display collectors; buyers seeking a graded presentation can submit this ungraded copy to their preferred grading service.

Artist & edition notes: Cover art and signature by Mico Suayan. Not a foil or standard retail foil cover — this is a color‑splash sketch variant (convention/retailer sketch edition). Year: 2025.
