Neeidea Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Here's a copy: Warrior #4 (Summer Special) 1982 Page 4 onwards Man. That is some hardcore collecting there. http://www.jamesonuk.com/miracleman/ That stuff is mostly pictures trawled from the great internet ocean and I guess you know the Marvel covers don't actually exist, except in bits and bytes. I do own a couple of those items though and I'm sure I've also eaten a sausage roll from the pasty shop (or more likely Greggs) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james1miller Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 So the Marvelman stuff by Moore in Warrior #4 wasn't in the #1-24 run of Miracleman by Moore and Gaiman right or wrong? It's been a while. Gonna have to reread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna have to reread. Correct: Warrior #4 contained a Marvelman story set in the future (not the same timeline as the ongoing Marvelman story) and this was not reprinted in the Eclipse Miracleman books.

Neeidea Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 The Miracleman 3D non-3D variant in CGC 9.0 just sold for $2,500 on Comiclink Did a boardie pick it up? I did have a cheeky bid and I was winning for a while but it went for more than twice that amount Does anyone have it? - Chipmaker may be able to tell us (if the buyer is ok with us knowing of course ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps in a month or so, when the item is delivered and the pride of ownership bursts forth, the buyer will make him/herself known. I'm a wee bit curious, but my role is ended.

james1miller Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 @Neeidea Thanks! One more question- All the other Warrior magazine Marvelman stories were reprinted in the 1-24 run by Moore and Gaiman but they just changed the name to Miracleman?

Neeidea Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 (edited) Yes correct but just issues #1-6 and the 3D #1 contain the Marvelman re-prints:- Warrior was an anthology comic and the Marvelman strips were fairly short. Marvelman ceased to be published in Warrior issue #21 after the threat of legal action from Marvel after the production of the Marvelman Special in the UK (which featured re-printed Mick Angelo 1950's stories with a short Alan Moore / Alan Davis framing story, all reprinted in Miracleman 3D #1). Eclipse re-printed 3 or 4 Warrior Marvelman strips per Miracleman comic and the entire Warrior Marvelman run was re-printed by issue #6 of Miracleman with the appearance of Marveldog and I believe they then ran out of unpublished Marvelman material by the end of #7. Miracleman #8 was more 1950's re-prints but from Miracleman #9 the material was new and I believe Alan Moore was contracted to Eclipse directly during this time up to issue #16 when Gaiman took over writing duties.

james1miller Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Thanks for all the info! It's been a while since I read the series or read about all the legal controversy. I may have to track down Warrior #4 Summer Special and Miracleman 3-D #1 or Marvelman Special #1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neeidea Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I won mine on ebay from EwanUK and paid using a very rare Warrior badge!! I think the other one on the Census is an 8.0 sketched and signed by Totleben: Picture courtesy of Mr Henn (from the JOHN TOTLEBEN s/s OP #2 thread):- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EwanUK Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I won mine on ebay from EwanUK and paid using a very rare Warrior badge!! Wow! very pleased for you to have got a 9.8 from it! never occured to me to get them graded. Looks great - though you'd have thought they could've added some description to the label! I've never been able to determine when Eclipse Extra finished. Anyone? The Warrior badges have dried up... so difficult to find... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neeidea Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 (edited) Yeah really pleased with it but it was in fantastic condition already when I bought it from you so no real surprise with the grade. It is lacking description: the label should mention Miracleman #15 and, at the very least, the John Totleben cover art. No idea when Eclipse Extra finished: Mile High lists up to #46, comicspriceguide.com list up to #55 but mycomicshop.com lists up to #76. Looking at auctions, #55 was the largest number I could find. Update: comiccollectorlive.com lists it as 1985-1991 (76 Issues) but not sure how reliable that is. Edited June 10, 2013 by Neeidea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
