PiercingMetal Thoughts: As you know we just love sharing these kinds of visuals for our comic book collecting readers and while I’ve never managed to read any of the original “Miracleman” stuff I am happy that its in Marvel’s hands now and that they can do stuff like this. It’s also great that they’ve shared so many of the covers from their press side. I can’t tell you how annoying it is to see a run of 25+ titles and you get “5” reveals. Once I run this type of post I like to move on and not return to it again and again. Now truth be told I will not be purchasing any of these since I have scaled back my monthly purchases and like to use any additional funds for a different title. That being said this is perfect for the fans of “Miracleman” who I am sure will be snagging a number of these if now all. I’ll wrap this up and ask you what you think about it all and ask you to put your comments down below where they reside. I don’t know when or if the remaining variants will surface but if they do I might just add them to this post. See you next time.
