COMICS: Axel Alonso Promises That An Announcement About MARVELMAN Is Coming Soon

It was way back in 2009 that Marvel announced they had acquired the rights to Marvelman (also known as Miracleman), but apart from a single image by Joe Quesada, there's been no sign of the character in the Marvel Universe. It now sounds as if that's all about to change...

Alan Moore and Neil Gaiman's work on Marvelman/Miracleman is loved by many comic book fans, and with the latter making a return to Marvel later this year as he introduces 'Angela' to the Marvel Universe in the final few pages of Age of Ultron, many of those same people are wondering whether we will FINALLY see the character back as was promised in 2009. In an interview with Newsarama, current Editor-in-Chief Axel Alonso had this to say about the status of Marvelman.

"There has been progress. Considerable progress. And we'll be making an announcement soon. I'm a huge fan of Marvelman. I'm very excited about seeing him being published by Marvel."

Well, that's pretty cool I guess but Alan Moore's run on "Miracleman" was truly groundbreaking and absolutely one of the best things I've ever read.. They can't build off of that run ( I think) so it's essentially a new take on the character (who really has his roots as a British knock-off of Captain Marvel (shazam)..

I am hoping the whole Angela being acquired by Marvel thing is part of a trade off in regards to Gaiman coming back to Marvel and finishing his planned arc for Marvelman/Miracleman.

Alan Moore's Miracleman is still some of the best I've ever read. Miracleman and his Swamp Thing back in the eighties was impressive stuff.
