Miracleman

Eclipse Comics.

Series
1 A Dream of Flying (1-3; w Alan Moore; a Alan Davis, Gary Leach). [From The Continuity Pages: "Collects Miracleman #1-3 without the original first chapter, with resultant new chapter headings (consistent except for the last two: "Inside Story" lacks a chapter heading and "Zarathustra" is labeled chapter 11, as it would have been in the original issues, though it is chapter 10 here), without "1982 Prologue" after the first chapter heading (previously the second chapter), and with "Legend" as the title for chapter 2 (previously chapter 3)."]
2 The Red King Syndrome (4-7, 9-10; w Alan Moore; a Alan Davis, John Ridgway, Chuck Beckum, Rick Veitch). [From The Continuity Pages: "Collects Miracleman #4-7, 9-10, including "The Red King Syndrome" and its sequel, as well as Chuck Beckum's pin-ups, but not including the silent Young Miracleman story or the non-Miracleman stories written by Pedro Henry."]
3 Olympus (11-16; w Alan Moore; a John Totleben).
4 The Golden Age (17-22; w Neil Gaiman; a Mark Buckingham). [Drops two pages from issue 17.]

Eduardo of MillarWorld reports:

The Golden Age TP drops the "Retrieval" back-up, published in the six issues (2 pages in 17-21, and 4 in 22).

And if you want to be really precise, the Olympus TP doesn't collect the reprints of old Young Miracleman stories, and a IIRC "Nuclear Winter" story by Moench (totally unrelated to MM).

And for clarity's sake, the only thing missing from the first TP is 1956. Issue 1 included a reprint of a classic vintage story, titled “The Marvelman Family and the Invaders of the Future” and renamed as “1956”. Moore re scripted the story to serve as a prologue, adding an extra page as an interlude, quoting Nietzche. The original version (with some minor retouching by Skinn) can be read in the UK Marvelman Special 1.

The materials not collected in any of the TPs are:

  • "1956" & "Behold" (the one page Nietzche) interlude from issue 1.
  • "Young Miracleman: 1957" silent back-up from issue 6.
  • The framing sequence from issue 8, featuring Cat Yronwode, explaining the lack of new material due to a flooding and leading to more vintage reprints and a preview of New Wave, a new title from Eclipse. One of the pages includes Chuck Austen drawing himself and complaining about Alan not telling who Lear and Nastyman are.
  • The "Retrieval" back-up, from issue 17-22.
  • The "Yesterday's Gambit" story, from Warrior 4, never published in USA, and available online.
  • The framing sequence from the 3-D special, reprinting old Marvelman UK stories.
  • The Warpsmiths stories. Two solo stories featuring the Warpsmiths exists, and are in the same continuity as Miracleman. Both stories were also written by Moore. The first story, “Cold War, Cold Warrior” was published in two parts in Warrior 9 &10 (4 & 6 pages), and reprinted in color in Axel Pressbutton 2. The second one, “Ghostdance”, was published in A1 issue one (7 pages).
Misc.
Miracleman: Apocrypha (3-issue mini; w Neil Gaiman, Steve Moore, James Robinson, Sarah Byam, Matt Wagner, Kurt Busiek, Stefan Petrucha, Dick Foreman, Fred Schiller, Steven Grant; a Mark Buckingham, Stan Woch, Kelley Jones, Norm Breyfogle, Matt Wagner, Chistopher Schenck, Broderick Macaraeg, Alan Smith & Pete Williamson, Alex Ross, Val Mayerik, Darick Robertson). [Shorts involving the Miracleman Family.]
George Koury, Kimota! The Miracleman Companion (TwoMorrows Publishing; interviews and articles about the series, with art and scripts). [From TwoMorrows: Alan Moore’s Miracleman predated Watchmen and Dark Knight as the first of the grim, ultra-realistic strips that changed super-hero comics forever. But whatever happened to Miracleman? For the first time, this trade paperback tells all the behind-the-scenes secrets, from the character’s start as the British strip Marvelman, to the legal and creative hurdles during its 24-issue run at Eclipse Comics, and why you never saw the final Neil Gaiman-scripted issue! Sporting a Mark Buckingham cover and an introduction and back cover by Alex Ross, this book features in-depth interviews with Alan Moore, John Totleben, Neil Gaiman, Mark Buckingham, Barry Windsor-Smith, Beau Smith, Cat Yronwode, Rick Veitch, and others! Plus there’s an amazing assortment of unpublished art, uninked pencils, sketches, and concept drawings (including unseen art from the never-published issue #25) by Totleben, Windsor-Smith, Buckingham, Mike Deodato, Jim Lee, Todd McFarlane, and more! Special Bonus: a never-published 8-page Moore/Totleben story, "Lux Brevis", and an unused Moore script!]

Two more issues were published; 23-28 would have been "Book 5: The Silver Age," and 29-34 "Book 6: The Dark Age." The series is currently in Rights Hell, subject to a nasty legal battle between Todd McFarlane and Neil Gaiman. It is to be hoped that this dispute will soon be resolved, clearing the way for the old trades to be republished (hopefully in more-complete form), and the series to be continued. Rumor has it this may happen sooner rather than later, at Marvel's Icon imprint.
