Throw in the legal fight over Marvelman and Miracleman though the years and he may we be the most litigated for or against character in comic books. Given all that, maybe Donny Cates, Geoff Shaw and Image Comics decided that another run around the law courts, a cease and desist letter would be enough to make[...]

But for much of that he will be staying on Thor, and says that this week's Thor #6 will show the shape of how big his run will be. He would drop everything he is doing for Miracleman though, his favourite character and comic book of all time Though following Jason Aaron on Thor was terrifying,[...]

We have to help each other." Donny Cates is looking to commission Miracleman artwork from artists without work. Donny Cates is especially looking for people to draw him Miracleman/Marvelman imagery He wrote "If you're an artist and need some ends right now, I collect commissions of MIRACLEMAN if you had time and wanted to do one[...]

I know the power of a Miracleman cover 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[...]

Whether that means it will have Miracleman on the second printing cover, as that's the page Buckingham drew for Marvel Comics #1000, I don't know I'll send him a note and ask… MARVEL COMICS #1000 2ND PTG BUCKINGHAM VAR (JUL198110, FOC 9/9/19) Marvel Comics is sending Marvel Comics #1000 back to the presses, to get copies[...]

We also know that the pair are working on finally wrapping up Miracleman… er… eventually But at San Diego Comic-Con today, Marvel revealed that the pair's story in Marvel Comics #1000 will also be about Miracleman, which is interesting, because presumably it means it will somehow integrate the character within Marvel's history. Here's Marvel's official announcment[...]

And seeing how the two clashed. I mentioned it here, when talking about Tom King's work with Kite-Man over in the Batman series. Well, Birth Movies Deaths got Neil Gaiman to talk about Alan Moore, Captain Marvel, Marvelman , Miracleman- and his role in that, both as a reader and as a writer Gaiman suggested that the[...]

Confirming another of Bleeding Cool's checklist rumors, Marvel announced new Miracleman by Neil Gaiman at the Diamond Retailer Lunch at San Diego Comic-Con today Marvel said the new series will be out in the beginning of 2019 They asked the retailers not to let this news out of the room, but, well… Pip pip is the[...]

Yesterday morning Bleeding Cool read the runes in the Marvel Spotlight magazine with a new ad for the Miracleman collections amongst all the launching titles And we decided that this might mean Marvel Comics was to announce that the new Miracleman stories from Neil Gaiman and Mark Buckingham might actually go ahead — so much so[...]

As such, Miracleman is something I've yet to read However, after reading his article about the similarities between Detective Comics #973 and Miracleman #15, I definitely see his point It does read like and visually resemble a sendoff to Alan Moore's series. That ending is a shocker, and I am eager to see where the team[...]

Moving onto audience questions: Mark Buckingham and D'Israeli is redrawing and coloring all of the Silver Age of Miracleman, so they are not quite ready to start releasing it yet, but they will return to it when they can release the comic on a good schedule. Favorite part of your job? Alonso says 'being mean to[...]

It won every award going, but infighting and lawsuits from Marvel Comics doomed it. That run was reprinted and continued by Eclipse Comics as Miracleman, a company that eventually closed over bankruptcy and lawsuits. The company was bought by Todd McFarlane who began to use the Miracleman character in his comics, until a series of lawsuits between[...]

Last week, Bleeding Cool ran the story that the solicited issues of Miracleman: The Silver Age, reprinting and then finishing the second arc from Neil Gaiman and Mark Buckingham on the Miracleman series, first begun in the late eighties, has been pulled from the schedules. Issues 1,2 and 3 had been solicited for 2016 but the[...]

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[...]
