Out of the Holydiver, Miracle Man, A-Bomb and C-Bomb, it's certainly the C-Bomb that is the brightest but I very much doubt you'll find it excessively so. The A-Bomb I tried was obviously quite a bit warmer than the ceramic version but I can't imagine anything that would be even more tight and aggressive. It was more brutal than any ceramic pickup I've ever tried so I imagine that with a ceramic magnet and more highs it will be even more so. The Miracle Man is smoother, thicker, has a bigger bottom end and in my Jackson, rather sweeter highs than the A-Bomb. While it has to be said that it's less aggressive than the Nailbomb, it's a hell of a long way from being tame. It's certainly a tight and aggressive pickup, it's just that the A-Bomb was so completely OTT I think almost anything would be a bit tamer by comparison. In my Jackson maple neck-thru the Miracle Man is actually more versatile than the A-Bomb was and the Holydiver is in a different world of versatility.
It's a tough one to call this because some of the things you're after seem contradictory. You say you want versatility and decent cleans as well as enough tightness and aggression to do heavier material. That's the Holydiver, without a doubt. Good cleans, the sweetest lead tone of any hot BKP and with an overdrive pedal you can easily go from Classic Rock to Metallica and Children of Bodom. Conversely, you do seem to be strongly drawn towards the Nailbomb. Now that is a pickup with great tone and many redeeming features but in my maple neck-thru, even the alnico version, was the most aggressive and least versatile pickup I think I've ever tried. Everything I tried playing seemed to have '90s Thrash Metal' stamped all over it. It was a great pickup but I wouldn't try it again unless it was mounted in a lot of mahogany or other such heavy wood. My maple neck-thru just couldn't tame it. That leads me to believe that you're prepared to sacrifice some versatility, some of the cleans and some of that sweetness to get something that is a bit tighter and more aggressive. That just has to be the Miracle Man. You may not get all of the qualities of the Holydiver but it would also be giving more than a nod to those qualities you seem to like in the Nailbomb while being a lot more versatile than the Nailbomb, at least in a maple neck-thru. You'll also find that the Miracle Man is the number 1 recommendation for maple neck-thru guitars for a reason. Everything about it seems to fit that construction and configuration perfectly.
Of course, all BKP are great so you can't really get a bad one. If you've not had BKP before, whatever you buy will probably seem fantastic, it's just that in different guitars, some BKP are more fantastic than others :D
