Other escapades Marvelman was involved in included preventing Boromanian attempts to sabotage Professor Jowik's new mega bathysphere; [45] stopping the ice cream-crazed Abominable Snowman and his Snowman minions; [46] defeating super-computer the Electronic Brain,; [47] foiling a Boromanian plot to use scientist Doctor Ramado's miniaturised hydrogen bomb to blow up a table tennis tournament; [48] saving oblivious astronaut Professor Swivelhead from his own oblivious behaviour; [49] clearing his name after circus strongman the Great Anvello framed him as a criminal; [50] defeating scientist Cuprini's evil mirror image version of himself; [51] preventing destruction of a United States Navy squadron by a two-headed kraken; [52] dealing with an epidemic of insomnia brought on by the King of the Land of Nod sulking; [53] using a demonstration of his formidable powers to cause Martian War Lords to abort a planned invasion of Earth; [54] stopping jealous electrical genius Austin Amps and his attempts to sabotage rival Oswald Ohms' all-electric town Wattingham; [55] The strip was a critical success, winning Favourite Comic Character (UK) at the 1984 Eagle Awards, [9] and continued to be a success when Alan Davis took over as artist. Vintage Gower Street material would also be reprinted in the one-off Marvelman Special, with the conceit it presented imaginary adventures of the character. However, creative differences between Moore [10] and Davis would lead to the strip stalling in 1985; while Grant Morrison was eager to take over Marvelman the dispute would prevent the strip from returning before Warrior was cancelled in 1985 after its losses became unsustainable for Skinn. [6] 1985-1993 [ edit ]So yeah, another amazing Alan Moore run. Who'd have thought? No wonder no one wanted to touch this character afterwards. No one in their right mind would try and follow this. That said, look for Marvel to gender and sexuality swap him sometime in the near future. Essential reading. 4.5/5
