I wish I knew what issue you guys were on so I'd know what we're talking about.

Ooooh, now I get it. I won't say anything, but yes that is a very weird line from a very creepy man.

I can't say that I love the original colors but I still really feel like important elements of the linework are lost due to the glossy shading in the reprints. And of course, gradients abound.

CapnAndy posted:Yes, but on the other hand... Of course, of course. There must exist a compromise between idiotic color choices and lifeless attempts at photo-realism.

Mind Loving Owl posted:Anyone got an estimate on when Gaiman's unreleased stuff will be coming out? Probably after they republish his run, which starts after Moore's finishes... it's gonna be a while at this rate.

Mind Loving Owl posted:So Marvel's first original contribution to Miracleman is coming out this month. Grant Morrison is doing a story so I'm cautiously optimistic. Are you loving serious? They had to get that rear end in a top hat involved in THIS?

It's right up there with the time Jack Kirby claimed Stan Lee was "crying in a corner" because Marvel was going under while he wrote FF all by himself.

Orson Welles has claimed some ridiculous things in his time and I still think he was an incredibly talented, witty, lovely man. I'd go so far as saying as it's kind of expected in the creative field for the auteurs to be kind of crazy.

CapnAndy posted:The prose is somewhat brilliant. You really haven't seen the half of it yet. I gotta say, I can't imagine how it feels to read Miracleman for the first time as a monthly. I'd definitely be rereading the entire mess in one go once it's all over to see all the little pieces and themes and hints... which I did anyway when I initially finished it.

So do you think they'll send out fixed copies or are they gonna shrug and say wait for the trade?Jack Gladney posted:Hey, how was Kid Miracleman able to be normal enough to build a software company in the first place? He seems pretty nuts from the first time Mike meets him as an adult. Was he just like content to be a regular serial killer or what? He doesn't seem like a guy who could just go to work and get groceries and stuff without skinning some people or something. He seemed to be content being completely above everyone and essentially running the world and having humans as his playthings. Having that taken away for even a second is really what brought out his madness.

Endless Mike posted:I dunno, man, I think Moore recognized it has flaws, considering MM outright states it. Yeah, I don't think he would have handed Gaiman the reins if he thought the world MiracleMan made was a true utopia, what stories could you even tell if that were the case? It's just, in his view, the logical conclusion to a character like Miracleman existing in our flawed world and trying to help.

TwoPair posted:The one weird thing I thought in the whole course of the issue was when Miracleman told the British PM how they were going to restructure government/etc and acted like kind of a dick about it, Miraclewoman goes "Hey Mike don't be a dick", yet only a couple of pages later she's the one going "gently caress their free will we're going to make Earth great". Miraclewoman's point wasn't about their free will, which is immaterial, it was about not terrifying and bullying these people that are so beneath them. You tell a child what to do, but you don't make him feel lovely about it. They're supposed to be better than petty political grudges, as justified as they might be (Thatcher was a monster).

No, clearly Alan Moore is a big dummy who didn't think his story through, instead of a guy knowingly portraying an imperfect dramatic social change brought about by a weird alien hybrid.
