Well, I'll be damned, Alan Moore actually will let it happen...its about time, although I really hate Moore's attitude regarding his non creator owned work
But seriously, who else is going to get this one when it gets re-released?

Moore's only one obstacle. Leach, Davis, Veitch, etc. also have to come to agreements. Marvel also doesn't have the rights to Big Ben or the Warpsmiths, who play a role. We're still a ways away.

Wait, what? Why don't they have the rights to Big Ben? Are you seriously telling me he had his own book or something? Because that would be *hilarious*.

So presumably, it will actually be called "Marvelman" now?

I would almost be happier if they took the script and assigned one artist to redraw the whole thing. The revolving door of art talent kind of hurt the book. Especially the one who couldn't rightly be called "talent". I wish my copy was still around so I could look up the one I'm referring to.

As long as the art in the "Olympus" arc is untouched, i'm okay.
I think I glanced through a trade/hardcover of that as a kid at a store during a trip to the USA, and I didnt had a good night's sleep for the rest of the trip.

He appeared in some solo strips in "Warrior" magazine, if Im right.
Also, now that Marvelman is settled, how about getting "Zenith" reprinted, godammit!

Probably Chuck Beckum/Austen.

That rings a bell. I believe it's the issue where the Marveldog beheads a guy.
