He can augment his strength true, but the thing is thats a very watery statement. Silver Surfer utilizes the power cosmic and with it he can do many things, but doing many things is not the same as doing everything now. So there are a lots of characters that can augment their strength indefinitely, and lots of characters with strength that has no known limits which is different again from saying those characters don't have limits or that characters can augment their strength indefinitely forever and or reach a point where they have infinite or limitless strength. Those things sort of sound similar, but actually are radically different.
So when someone says Silver Surfer can increase his strength limitlessly, it sounds impressive, but whats more impressive is he is very strong and has examples of showing great strength and that Silver Surfer inherently possesses the ability to manipulate energy to increase his internal strength. If you and me want to increase our strength indefinitely we have to eat a lot of food, circumvent our natural physiology and just a lot of other stuff. Not as impressive. We require much external tampering (unless our biology is radically altered somehow to transform how we function and expend and intake energy. Say if Galactus transforms us. Galactus for a reference can also augment his strength and power as well, on a scale much greater than Silver Surfer, but he too is in turn surpassed but other fictional characters to do the same. Its relative brudda.
If nothing else comes of this post….that was a very
impressive display of validating an answer! You, who ever you are, have mad skills!
Seeing Spiderman on The Electric Company…channel of coarse PBS! I was like 5 or 6…changed my life. Had a drug store in town that carried Spiderman and others. My parents spot me the 35 cents and the rest is history! Now I spend way to much trying to recapture that feeling I had as kid turning the pages!!!! Coach T
