Summary

The Acclaimed Compendium to the Greatest Super-Hero Saga of All Time finally returns to print in a newly updated and expanded edition! Kimota! The Miracleman Companion chronicles the history of Alan Moore's first ultra-realistic comics character that changed super-heroes forever. Over half of this 200-page hardcover features new material not seen in the original 2001 edition (long since sold-out, and garnering high prices on the collector's market), and has been fully updated to include coverage of Marvel Comics' recent acquisition of Marvelman from 1950s creator Mick Anglo, and what the future holds in light of the ongoing legal battles over ownership of this legendary character. New interviews include Neil Gaiman, Dean Mullaney, Dave McKean, and others, plus a look at a never-completed Miracleman: Apocrypha story. It also contains interviews with Alan Moore and all the major Miracleman artists and contributors, as well as a definitive checklist, unpublished art, and other surprises. And to top it all off, this Definitive Edition of this Eisner Award-nominated tome features a new cover by superstar painter Alex Ross!
