Miracleman Returns in June! Or Does He?
It was just announced today that Marvel will return Marvelman to shelves everywhere with the release of Marvelman Classic Primer #1 in June. This commemorative one-shot will feature interviews with creator Mick Anglo, superstar Neil Gaiman and more who contributed to the character’s history over the years (don't hold your breath for Alan Moore!) The book will also feature new pin ups of key Marvelman characters by superstar artists Mike Perkins, Doug Braithwaite, Miguel Angel Sepulveda, Jae Lee, Khoi Pham and Ben Oliver, and will feature two covers—one with the timeless art of Mick Anglo and another by Joe Quesada!
Then, in July, Marvel will debut Marvelman Family’s Finest #1, a new ongoing series reprinting Marvelman’s greatest adventures for the first time in the US. Plus they will release Marvelman Classic Vol.1 Premiere HC, reprinting Marvelman’s earliest adventures in chronological order.
Of course none of this states whether they will reprint the incredible Moore/Gaiman run that pretty much defined the character and goes down in history as one of the greatest stories that's currently unavailable in trade paperback form. As far as I can tell, Marvel has never publicly stated they had the rights to that material at all, but rather the rights to the classic Marvelman material from the 1950's. Marvel also hasn't said if they will bring Marvel/Miracleman into the current Marvel Universe either. And considering that the whole fight between Marvel and Alan Moore started because Marvel sued him and Eclipse for using the name Marvelman, hence the name change to Miracleman.
Is this good news or not? I guess we'll have to see!
Invaders in New Captain America Movie!
It was just announced by the Director of the new Captain America movie that the INVADERS will play a major part in the film! Apparently, they'll be in the entire second half, and will be at least six members strong! Now the INVADERS consisted of Cap, Bucky, The Human Torch, Toro, The Sub-Mariner, Union Jack, and Spitfire. Will they all be there? Even Subby? Guess we're going to have to wait and see, but if done right, this could be awesome!
