Silver Surfer: Requiem [Comic Fan Dub]

Project Overview

Good day! This project sparks the beginning of a four-issue comic fan dub of the miniseries, Silver Surfer: Requiem. Roles are being casted as we advance through the issues.

WHAT IS THIS ABOUT?
Silver Surfer: Requiem is a beautifully illustrated, thought-provoking miniseries that explores the deeper, more philosophical side of one of Marvel’s most cosmic characters. Written by J. Michael Straczynski and painted by Esad Ribić, the story follows the final days of the Silver Surfer. He learns that his cosmic body is failing and that he is dying.

    Ad Finem! (Latin: To the End)

    Good evening — or morning — wherever in the multiverse you’re tuning in from. All FOUR ISSUES of Silver Surfer: Requiem are now complete and uploaded on the channel:
    👉 YouTube.com/@SpokenWorlds1

    Take a gander, subscribe, like — or don’t! Your call. But I do want to extend my deepest thanks to everyone involved — big roles, small roles, and everything in between. I learned a lot through this project.

    But alas… the journey doesn’t end here. More stories await. More worlds to explore.

    Join me — to the end, and beyond.

    “Now, I ride the Eternal winds once more! And none shall ever be my master!”Silver Surfer #1

  • The Journey Ends Here

    True believers!

    The time has come. All roles have been filled, lines have been (mostly) read and world hunger has ended! Okay...not really.

    Seriously -- thank you all! And for those that auditioned but didn't quite hit the mark, here are a few reasons why. These were some of the patterns I ran into from some auditions:

    • Mic quality - No one’s expecting you to drop $1200 on a studio mic. But if your gear has limits, a treated recording space can make a huge difference. (Pssst… I record most of my lines in my closet.)

    • Performance - This one’s partly on me. I realized mid-way how crucial direction was and started adding more as we went. But in general, a flat, deadpan read (unless specifically requested) will sink an audition fast. Don’t be afraid to show some oomph and bring the lines to life!

    Aside from that....I’m in post, piecing together everyone’s lines like a kid with new Legos—stay tuned for more comic dubs!

    Check out the completed work coming soon to a youtube channel near you: https://www.youtube.com/@SpokenWorlds1

  • "I am...the SORCERER SUPREME!"

    Evening/Morning folks!

    For those that have already auditioned and were selected, thank you kindly for your contributions. Special shoutout to Tony Musco for voicing not just one but TWO characters for this project.

    We do need ONE MORE role -- Dr Strange, the Sorcerer Supreme himself! His cameo is short but necessary.

    Currently waiting on the VA for Silver Surfer to provide his lines by next week. But we got some momentum! Any questions -- please let me know!

  • A Cosmic Apology!

    I recognize i wasn't exactly clear on the Silver Surfer Role.

    I included some updates and provided links for the comic images where the lines come from. Perhaps this will help!

    My bad!

    P.S.-- if you auditioned for Surfer, you can do it again with the newly provided supplemental materials.

  • Voice of the Cosmos

    I am seeking a voice actor to embody the Silver Surfer, the main character of this project. Please record with a condenser or dynamic microphone—USB mics will not be accepted.

    I originally planned to voice this role myself, but I feel my voice doesn’t quite capture the Surfer’s essence. Do you have the depth, gravitas, and cosmic presence to become the Herald of Galactus? This is no small task—only those ready to channel the voice of the cosmos should audition.

Role assigned to: Zexic

WHO IS HE?
A tough-as-nails Brooklyn bruiser turned into a rock-skinned powerhouse by cosmic radiation. As the muscle of the Fantastic Four, Ben’s super strength and durability are unmatched. Beneath the gruff attitude and wisecracks is a friend with a heart of gold.

VOCAL QUALITY
- Gravelly, deep and rough — like he’s been chewing asphalt and whiskey.
- Brooklyn or New York accent is common, but not cartoony — grounded and natural

- Think a bouncer with a heart, or your no-nonsense uncle who’s secretly a softie.

REFERENCE INSPIRATIONS
- Michael Chiklis (Fantastic Four 2005)

- John DiMaggio (animated appearances) – great for animated gruff charm.

- A mix of: Clint Eastwood growl

VOCAL QUALITY

- Fast and playful — he talks like he’s in a race with his own thoughts

- Mid to slightly higher pitch; he’s the youngest, and it should show. Not squeaky, just lively.

WHO IS HE?

The brilliant, stretchy leader of the Fantastic Four. A scientific genius with a mind as elastic as his body, he gained the power to stretch and reshape himself after exposure to cosmic radiation. Reed is calm, logical, and obsessed with solving the universe’s mysteries—sometimes to the point of neglecting the people around him.

VOCAL QUALITY

- Calm, articulate, and precise — like a professor who’s always thinking three steps ahead.

- Measured and deliberate — he chooses his words carefully, often speaking as if he’s explaining something complex to a curious audience

A cosmic entity in Marvel Comics known as the Devourer of Worlds. Once a mortal named Galan from the universe before the Big Bang, he was transformed into a god-like being during the birth of the current universe. He must consume the energy of planets to survive.

VOCAL QUALITY
His voice should be deep, resonant, and cosmic—like it echoes across space and time. Think calm but commanding!

REFERENCE INSPIRATION
Think Morgan Freeman meets a black hole. The delivery of his lines should be slow amd deliberate.

The love of Norrin Radd, the Silver Surfer. She’s the ruler of his homeworld, Zenn-La, and represents the peaceful life he sacrificed when he became Galactus’s herald.

VOCAL QUALITY

Gentle, graceful, and serene — with a warm, melodic tone. Every word should flow smoothly, as if chosen with care.

Role assigned to: Tony Musco

WHO IS HE?
He was originally Norrin Radd, a young astronomer from the planet Zenn-La. To save his world from destruction, he struck a deal with Galactus, the world-devourer: in exchange for sparing Zenn-La, Norrin became Galactus’s Herald, transformed into the Silver Surfer and tasked with finding planets for his master to consume.

He is the MAIN CHARACTER for this project. He has ALOT of lines across this four-issue mini series. It's a blend of both narration and open dialogue. 

VOCAL QUALITY
Based on the context of the story, keep in mind that Silver Surfer is "dying" and it becomes apparent to him very early in ISSUE 1. I am looking for a calm and deliberate tone, resonant and solemn.

REFERENCE INSPIRATIONS
Think Laurence Fishbourne as Silver Surfer from Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer movie: https://youtu.be/qiu337tom6I?t=207
