While you're out and about over the holiday weekend, make sure and check your change for a special, limited edition "Silver Surfer" quarter. Only 40,000 have been minted and anyone who finds one can register to win a trip to the world premiere of "Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer."
In the "Fantastic Four" comic book, the surfer made his debut in the 1960's. A resident of the world called Zenn-La, Norrin Radd made a deal with Galactus, a cosmic entity who survives by consuming planets. To save Zenn-La from being consumed, Norrin volunteered to become the herald of Galactus, scouring the universe for planets suitable for his new master.
Galactus endowed his new servant with great cosmic powers and the ability to surf through the cosmos. Eventually, the Silver Surfer found the Earth and had to do battle with the Fantastic Four.
Even if you don't find a quarter, check out www.riseofthesilversurfer for more chances to win cool stuff. The movie, by the way, opens on June 15.
Many thanks,
Steve
