Has two images. Both below the image and neither of which I am a fan of. Two suggestions:

1.1. (the cover of the first issue of his original run)

1.2. (the cover for the first issue of Vol 2)

I would prefer just a quality upgrade of the first of the two current images as it shows him with his connection to Galactus:

Also it being drawn by Mœbius is kind of a big deal.

[up] My only problem is that it is so focused on Galactus that the Surfer is hard to see.

[up] I wouldn't say he's hard to see at all, but I could see the argument for the focus being perhaps too much on Galactus.

Yeah, I don't know why I said that he was hard to see but I still stand by that I think it is to focused on Galactus.

I did find these that highlight his connection to the world eater, but put the Surfer front and center:

I like 6.2, shame to lose the Mœbius image but 6.2 does a better job of showing off the main character.

1.1 and 6.2 probably are the best choices.

6.2. Of the ones that show Galactus it's the best at emphasizing SS as the 'main character'. (also we get to see freaky space stuff and him surfin')
