Now Playing magazine has a two-part Q&A with Todd McFarlane, with the first installment centering largely on McFarlane Toys‘ license for Lost action figures. But the second part travels a little further afield, delving into, well, more action figures, the Spawn animated series, and everyone’s favorite topic … the status of Miracleman:

Now Playing: Miracleman. You own the rights to Miracleman?

Todd McFarlane: Yeah.

NP: I haven’t been following the Spawn comic lately, so maybe you have done something with Miracleman there. What’s the status of the character?

TM: We’ve done a couple of small things; nothing overly aggressive. But again, Neil [Gaiman] and I are still trying to settle our differences and we’ll see where that all comes out. Who knows? We might some day get along and surprise everybody and Miracleman will sort of be fully grown with the creative people that [fans] are looking for. Other than that, eventually I’ll do something on a regular basis with him.

McFarlane further addresses his conflict with Gaiman over the property, saying, “Who knows? We’ll maybe be two fighting boys that turn into men someday. And actually do something a little mature.”
