they should add miracleman to this event.

@marvel72 Miracleman is not really a marvel UK character as he is not on earth 616 and was not part of the marvel UK character explosion.

@dellamorte1872 as they say in the first episode of Community, "Let's discuss this". Why do you think it's a ****** lineup? It is a lot of the big Marvel UK characters in the 90s. Do you mean the writers and artists because they rose up through Marvel UK. Andy Lanning is we'll know with Dan Abnett for relaunching the Marvel cosmic universe and creating the current Guardians of the galaxy that are going to be on film.

May give it a try. Marvel UK was en entry point for quite a few good writers (not as much as 2000AD but still good - Abnett I knew previously from w40k). Always thought Marvel never paid enough attention to its UK based properties, DC on the other hand, did, more in the Vertigo line than mainstream universe.

As for Miracleman, hope Marvel doesn't bring him into the main universe. It has no place there. It's very adult, and shouldn't mix with the other heroes. Very different nature. After Moore's and Gaiman's run, I don't know where they could go with it, but I hope they don't reboot the character and keep him in his own separate universe, with a more mature tone.

@marvel72
I'm not disagreeing it would be cool to see him but there are lot of other marvel UK characters who possibly need the spotlight more than him. He does also have his own book unlike any other the characters in this event.
If they were going to introduce miracleman into the 616 universe it would probably be like Constantine at DC a dulled down version of his former self. It would probably be earth 616 version rather than his continuity. I would rather see more use of Cap Brit, Pete wisdom and other MI13 members than Miracleman introduced into the normal universe. If they go hand in hand that would be awesome!

@DioFoRio there is going to be a Death's head one shot with both Deaths head I (FPA) and Daeths head II (minion) buddy cop style.
