Silver Surfer v1 #17, 1970 - Some online sources credit Barry Smith for this cover and I initially agreed. After someone pointed out some details, I took a much closer look. The artwork roughly matches his early primitive style. However, the figure drawings themselves seem questionable. Have an opinion? I welcome all comments. Other artists in this bronze age comic include John Buscema and Chic Stone. This is 1 of 1 Silver Surfer issues by Smith.

I don't think it's Smith. The Surfer figure doesn't look Kirby-ish enough (early Smith was very Kirby influenced, with Steranko mixed in) and the background figures of Fury and Dum Dum are almost certainly by Trimpe, who produced a slew of covers in this period. The inks may be by Dan Adkins.
