Ah Miracleman…such a strange, history. Someone wrote a whole book about it. With 40 years of mystery, marvels and miracles behind him, it’s high time that Marvel tributed the character with a series of variant covers, and here they are!
BTW 40th anniversary refers to the character’s “Modern” era. The character was originally created by Mick Anglo in 1953 as a simple superhero named MARVELMAN, but Alan Moore and the late Garry Leach reinvented him in 1982 kicking off a behind the scenes story so weird and twisted that…well ya gotta read the book!
Anyway, back in the now, legal troubels behind him, it’s going to be a busy year for Miracleman, so renamed because of Marvel legal objections, although they now publish the character. Here’s what’s in store!
In addition to announcements for upcoming new collections of his groundbreaking stories, fans witnessed a monumental development in last year’s TIMELESS #1: the herald of Miracleman’s grand return! In anticipation of his upcoming era, a new collection of variant covers will show Miracleman fighting alongside some of Marvel’s greatest heroes for the very first time. Crafted by some of the industry’s finest artists including Peach Momoko, Pepe Larraz, John Cassaday, Mark Bagley, Terry Dodson, Jim Cheung, Mark Buckingham, and Salvador Larocca, this breathtaking artwork serves as an exciting tease of Miracleman’s eagerly anticipated upcoming new adventures!
The MIRACLEMAN VARIANT COVERS will be showcased on Marvel’s hottest ongoing series starting in September and continuing throughout the rest of the year. Check out the first batch of covers below and stay tuned for more exciting announcements about MIRACLEMAN in the coming months! For more information, visit Marvel.com.
And here is a slew of the variants. Miracleman goes with ANYONE from the MPU!
