The complete Infinity Gauntlet event sits inside this Surfer sequence, so a separate core-event book would repeat its six issues. Marvel Comics Presents #50, #69 and #93–97 contribute Surfer selections around that reading, not whole anthology issues that must be followed through their other serials.
