Out of print no longer and remastered is the comic book series Miracleman which makes use of the original artwork and advanced restoration methods.

I’m positive this will rapidly be recognized as the all-time, definitive, Miraclemanseries. It’s simply looking that ridiculously sharp!”

“Battle of the Atomwas the perfect launching pad for X-Men: No More Humans, in a lot of different ways,” stated writer Mike Carey. “It raised, in a very direct and powerful way, the question of how the X-Men influence the world around them, for good or bad - and it introduced Raze - a fascinating new villain, conflicted and with his own scary and consistent agenda. I came in at just the right time to bounce off that.”
