Mr. Purple Cat Esq. - 2023-05-30
WARNING! This video spoils all the major plot points of Alan Moore's run.
It's not a great video, I just wanted to post any Miracleman video.
I also wouldnt even super recommend the Miracleman comic. Theres much better stuff (top ten, akira,sandman)
But I do appreciate having been party to this comics weird little world. Clearly Alan Moore *loved* the original golden age schlock, cus in his grimdark reimagining everything from the pulpy originals is retained; it all still happened, Moore just rationalises it (and he does a pretty good job too imo)
Also this must be dear to Neil Gaiman also. As he had to stop writing it in 1996, not too long after starting. He formed a company whose only goal was to clear up who owns miracleman, and then in he *2022* resumed writing from where he had stopped in 1996. He's currently releasing new issues, a brand new one dropped only a few weeks ago.
