actually most of you are wrong
this song wasn't written about the Silver Surfer
in an interview he said he wrote this song without a theme but really wanted it to be a single and didn't even have a title and as the album was about to be released someone showed him a Fantastic 4 comic and he just asked what the guys name was and took it. I was kinda disappointed when I heard this, I thought Joe was just a bad-ass who read comics : \
