I‘ve had this now sadly faded curiosity since I was a kid. Luckily the sun is out so I read it in the garden. It‘s a shame it will probably never be re-released in all its glory. Neither will Kirby‘s ten issue run that expanded Clarke‘s story. It‘s a strange addition to 2001‘s visual media; the original, languidly paced film, in the hands of the greatest comic book artist ever, becomes, characteristically, action packed and full of Kirby-Tech.

Bookwomble Oh, fantastic! You beat me - I don't have this but would love it 😍 This run introduced Machine Man into the MU, so it's possibly been reprinted as a MM trade paperback. 8mo
The_Book_Ninja From what I can see, potential copyright issues with MGM mean this and the 10 issue run will not see it reissued. I think Machine Man is solely owned my Marvel so the spin-offs are available 8mo
