[quote=« Joe Quesada »]At the moment, from the looks of the calendar I would project Neil and Bucky’s new material to see the light of day sometime in 2016. I know that it seems like a long way away, but the material is finally going to see the light of day and will remain in print, and I think for that, we can all be grateful. To me, it’s a travesty that there are readers who have not only not been exposed to the original stories, but don’t even had a way to easily access them.
I would be lying to you if I told you that we haven’t had creators coming to us asking if we were looking to explore the character beyond Neil and Bucky’s story, but first, we want to be respectful to where Neil and Bucky go with their tale. Secondly, it’s much too early to make those kinds of decisions. Let’s say for example that we were looking at some time in 2016 as a possible date for the continuation of MM’s stories beyond Neil and Bucky. Who knows what kinds of stories comic fans will be looking for at that time? The whole landscape could be completely different.[/quote]

Le dessinateur Mark Buckingham a confirmé qu’une grande partie de son année 2015 sera consacrée à Miracleman:
[quote=« Mark Buckingham »]I’m returning to the series, Neil Gaiman is doing the scripts and I’m going to be doing the artwork. All being well, D’Israeli is joinging us as well, so we can pretty much reunite the team as it was when we were working on it before Eclipse disappeared. My hope is that we can pretty much jump straight back in, and finish the story we set out to tell. Once Fables wraps up, I have a solid year ahead of working on Miracleman.
MB: Well, I’m hoping to be able to find a way to soften that blow. “The Golden Age” I’m leaving as a period piece — that’s going to come out as it was, flaws and all. That was me as an artist, learning my craft in public. I have a lot of experimentation in that first arc where I play with a lot of styles within that story, but the intention with “The Silver Age” and “The Dark Age” was that we would move into a period where we’d be developing the story in a linear fashion, with a single narrative, and for that I wanted to have more consistency. Even back then, issue 23 looked very different from issue 24 and the unpublished issue 25 is very different again. So, my intention is to go back to those issues to, as it were, remaster them by taking each page and seeing what can be done to re-ink and refine the look, so that I can create something more consistent, that will also have a flavor of where I am now. When we move on into the new, what you’ll get is a consistent read through the entire arc. That’s the plan, anyway![/quote]
Peut-être quelque chose qui intéressera certains lecteurs, un entretien datant de 1987 en français.
Le Alan Moore des débuts y parle bien évidemment de Marvelman alias **Miracleman **, et de bien d’autres choses.
C’est rigolo, on est en 1987 et il évoque déjà le projet embryonnaire qui deviendra « Lost Girls » bien des années plus tard (projet sur lequel il a certes travaillé très longtemps…) : le gars a de la suite dans les idées !!
