EwanUK Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Have you all notice the new Captain Mar-vell (Ms.Marvel) looks similar to MiracleWoman? I am surprised that no one else here mentioned that. I noticed that a few weeks ago an was thinking maybe MM will show up in Avengers vs X-men. Jamie McKelvie, who is the designer of the new look of the character & costume, said on twitter at the time that it's just a coincidental resemblance. I don't think it was just a coincident what's all this? can I see please? has she shagged someone with a windmill yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

washane-migration Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Wow, that went for a lot of money really. Good sale. It was a record price and I got overbid - but it was bought by another MM completionist so fair enough. The article is not by Grant Morrison - that was a misunderstanding I perhaps created years back (see early part of this thread) when I was first searching for it. Obviously, the cover is by GM though. The article is the 2nd part of one begun in Fusion no.4. It's by a chap called James Clements and is a fascinating feature that I understand was a "big influence" on Grant. Both Fusion no.4 and no.6 had a tiny 300 print run so are amazingly rare. No.4 also has an Alan Moore letter in it. Ironically, no.6 has sold two copies recently on ebay - the one for £316 and one about 2 months ago on a £1 BIN ! So was the Grant Morrison Johnny Bates story ever actually printed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sal Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 So here is a little gem that very few Miracleman collectors even know about. I sure didn't until a few months ago. It took me a few weeks to research it. Read the back cover and it will give all the information. Miracleman appears on the cover only and is drawn by Mark Buckingham. Back cover also contains references to Miracleman and Eclipse Comics. This is quite an interesting Miracleman item - one I didn't know about either until last year. It's not a fanzine per se, it's comic published by Richard Johnston, the comics journalist. It was published after MM 24 so is the last appearance of MM until 2004's A1 Sketchbook (minus a few mags). Print run was 3,000 and there was an ashcan version. Yup, that's me, though I'm not sure about "journalist". I was at 20 or 21 at University, I was reading Cerebus, I wanted to put out a comic. I noted how publishers used hot artists to do covers, I decided to go round conventions getting "jam" covers from a bunch of cool artists. Bisley, Sim, Gaiman, Talbot, and the ones you see here - Campbell, Smith, Fegredo, Glyn Dillon, Sean Phillips, Paul Grist, Gary Erskine, Woodrow Phoenix and Mark Buckingham - remember this was all twenty years ago as well. Last year Gary Erskine drew my royal wedding comic biography. Some never even got used, like one with Frank Quitely art... I shoudl find that. Because here's the thing. I don't have a lot of spare copies, they were pulped along the way. I think 800 copies sold to the direct market, the rest are in landfill mostly. I do however have the original cover art. Hmmm. You absolutely should find that Quitely one. And scan it. And then post it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neeidea Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 (edited) Not sure which sketch I like best. The black penned sketch is a bit more precise but the silver one blends into the background a little more... Edited July 8, 2012 by Neeidea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
