Nice! Dont worry about the other versions. All you should be concerned with is the Alan Moore one. Its the only one I can recommend lol.

If you have a hard time finding it in your local comic store, I'm sure there are other places you can surely find it haha.

I always liked the Alan Moore issues... The Neil Gaiman ones; not so much

You guys are heathens. They all rock, even the Apocrypha.

They're definitely differently flavored between the Moore issues and the Gaiman issues, though. If you read them all at once you kind of spoil it.

I wonder if Miracleman or Planetary will finish first....

Between his movies, books and TV work, doesn't Gaiman have enough "FUCK YOU!" money finish this damn book?

You are right Preppy, I just finished the Gaiman issues they owned hard, i have seen the light haha.

Sheng-long: Dude I wish he would finish too, its fucked up! But they is a huge legal dispute between Gaiman and Todd MacFarland thats gonna keep this in limbo.

Haven't read it, but Moore rarely turns in a dud. I'll keep it in mind after I've read Swamp Thing, Promethea, Voice of the Fire, and the scads of other Moore works I've missed out on.

Miracleman (or in the years pre-lawsuits, Marvelman) is indeed epic. And not in the way that some jerk getting hit in the junk with a badger is an epic fail. In the way that the Lord of the Rings is an epic literary trilogy.


Yeah...a little bit of an Alan Moore fan, but I have the singles to prove it.</old fanboy>
