Mark Buckingham drawing him on the cover of Dirtbag #2, published by my own Twist & Shout Comics back in the early nineties, means it now sells on Amazon for plenty money Especially after Mike Meyer and I pulped the remaining 2000 copies of the initial 3000 copy print run.

This one was brought to us by Keith Giffen, Dan Didio, Mark Buckingham, and Chris Sotomayor.

I noted that the Neil Gaiman/Mark Buckingham remastered reprints and new chapters of their Miracleman run from Marvel Comics were missing from recent Marvel Previews But I put that down to the usual delays that have accompanied this series over the last thirty-five years. I didn't know the half of it. Marvel Comics have told retailers that[...]

Rereading it, it is as majestic as I remembered, and with a final moment that effectively (and intentionally) undermines everything the character has been building up to. But #17, as Neil Gaiman and Mark Buckingham took over the title, won't be reprinted as #17 Instead it appears that Miracleman will relaunch as a new #1, reprinting the[...]
