RockMyAmadeus Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 So you got a complete run for a Benjy and that means there was a wild ebay-fueled clamoring for Miracleman 14 years ago? Was this ebay.uk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woregul Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 I posted a WTB request for a lower grade Miracleman 24, but so far no responses. If anyone has one that they want to sell, please PM me. I need it to complete a run of 1-24. I am trying to get the #24 "musty odor" one on the bay ( Miracleman 24 ), but I don't know if I will win it or not. Thanks.

woregul Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Today, I got this Miracleman Book 4 the Golden Age hardcover in the mail. The cover is a little worn, but the book itself is like new. Now if I can only find inexpensive copies of books 1-3 ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

epowe10097 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I never thought MM's head was detached. Isn't that his body to the left of his head as if he is at an angle? I know his head never becomes detached in the story. Has this always been referred to a a detached head cover? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's what CGC used to call the cover of no.15 "detached head cover" of words to that effect Perhaps they were thinking of Evelyn Cream who's head was indeed detached after his jungle walkies with Miracledog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EwanUK Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Almost 3k for the Miracleman #15 in CGC 9.9 - did a boardie pick it up? Miracleman #15 CGC 9.9 Impressive price - I predicted 2k You may have seen my no.12 CGC 9.9 reached £500 / $789 a couple of weeks back which I was reasonably pleased with I'm in the process of selling the rest of the set, both on ebay and privately. All have done pretty well so far (a little more than I bought them for) with exception of no.24 which only hit £130 / $200 Down from $315 when I bought it in Sep 2009 but I guess supply now outstrips demand... unless you have 9.8 sigs or 9.9s... such is graded comics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, that might be the most awesomest of all descriptions for that issue, "Body-head dissonance" notwithstanding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan. Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Now that I think of it I do recall seeing the detached head inscription on the label. It's all coming back to me now. That's certainly an interesting interpretation of Totleben's poses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EwanUK Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Thought you guys might like to see an update of my very slowly progressing challenge to complete a full set of ORIGINAL Warrior badges from 1982/3 It's taken me close to TEN YEARS to find six of them - but to be fair to myself, I now have a complete set of the Miracleman related ones Dez says they were manufactured in huge numbers... but clearly very few were saved Cool aren't they? The top two are original Marvelman Club Badges from the 1950s which seem to appear more frequently than the Warrior ones! and the original advert...
