A Look Inside the Increasingly Late Mister Miracle at San Diego Comic-Con
At the Tom King panel at San Diego Comic-Con last night, we got a glimpse at upcoming Mister Miracle. The series is late, after all the setup for Batman #50 was massive, the Walmart books have kicked off, he has Heroes in Crisis to manage — and those nine-panel grids don't write themselves.
And so Mister Miracle #10, which was solicited for July 11th, is now scheduled for the 1st of August, two months after #9 was eventually published.
While Mister Miracle #11, which was solicited for the 8th of August, is now scheduled for the 22nd of August, three weeks after #10. We'll see if that's ambitious or not.
And the finale, Mister Miracle #12, which was solicited for the 12th of September, is now scheduled for the 10th of October, six weeks after #11. And all the plaudits will be theirs. Who remembers how late The Vision was now?
So we got a glimpse at the new glitching cover to #11…
And a little bit of what is going on inside. A new kind of grid…
Here's what we knew before…
MISTER MIRACLE #10 (OF 12)
(W) Tom King (A) Mitch Gerads (CA) Nick Derington
Darkseid has put an offer on the table- something that can end the war between New Genesis and Apokolips once and for all. The stakes are high, but peace is important. Mister Miracle finds himself caught having to make a decision that won't just change the new life he's been building, but potentially the entirety of the universe.

MISTER MIRACLE #11 (OF 12)
(W) Tom King (A) Mitch Gerads (CA) Nick Derington
If there's one thing popular fiction has taught us by now, it's: never make a deal with the devil! And yet Mister Miracle is still listening when Darkseid approaches him with just such a devilish proposition-if Scott sends his newborn son to Apokolips, there will be peace on New Genesis. Since when has Darkseid been famous for his honesty?! It'll be a miracle if this doesn't blow up in Scott's face.

MISTER MIRACLE #12 (OF 12)
(W) Tom King (A) Mitch Gerads (CA) Nick Derington
It'll be a miracle if you can get through this mind-bending conclusion with your sanity intact! After his epic battle with Darkseid, Scott Free sees life a whole new way: he's the new Highfather of New Genesis, and he's madly in love with his wife and child. But what if it's all a lie? Did Mister Miracle really escape death way back in issue #1? No one really knows but Tom King and Mitch Gerads!
