The French have one of the most successful comic book industries and art forms in the world. So why do they have to rub it in and make the imported American comics even better? They already have a Complete Geoff Johns Superman series, a Complete Grant Morrison Batman series and a Complete Ed Brubaker Catwoman series[...]

Running in a number of DC Comics titles today, is a teaser campaign for the upcoming Multiversity series. Four double page spreads, showing 52 realities

It really is stunning and, when compared to the work he was producing for Grant Morrison in JLA, seems to be from the pen of a completely different artist. See, editors aren't all bad after all Joey seems to be one of the good guys. Tony Lee: Creating Lies for Fun and Profit This was truly a master[...]

Annihilator, a six issue series by Grant Morrison and Frazer Irving, arrives from Legendary on September 3rd and that team up alone is a significant point of interest, but it's also true that in the past year Morrison has been working on a number of quite diverse creative projects "tailored" to different genres and readerships[...]

Writers like Neil Gaiman and Grant Morrison really knocked me out back then, along with artists Paul Smith, Art Adams, and Michael Golden Some of my favorite mangaka include Masakazu Katsura, Katsuhiro Otomo, Hiroaki Samura, and Kenichi Sonoda. DD: I've seen some of the teaser art, and one thing that immediately stands out is Steve's intricate rendering of environments[...]

And we've been unable to uncover even one of them. Until now. We've been told by industry sources that legendary world-respected comics author Grant Morrison, as well as having a project with Boom!, will be announcing his return to a comic he once wrote three issues of, Spawn. Of late, the comic created by Todd McFarlane has had rather[...]

Boom's final teaser for San Diego Comic Con – that Grant Morrison is working on a new book for them. Though it's not the first time Boom! have worked with Mr Morrison In that they reprinted his Steed And Mrs Peel comics based on the original Avengers TV show, and originally published by Eclipse. I should know,[...]

Mark Bristow writes, With the preview and publishing of Robin Rises: Omega, we're left with some awesome revelations and also many questions. Robin Rises is a direct continuation of Grant Morrison's huge Batman epic. For long-term fans that have followed Morrison's run from the start, or at least before the Flashpoint event, we've had questions about what really[...]

That is not to say there haven't been some brilliant runs on the character by talented writers like Chuck Dixon, Kyle Higgins and Grant Morrison – because there have been – only that this new status quo makes this series a great opportunity to showcase a new type of hero for a new era in[...]

And we keep the work open…sometimes we work full script, sometimes it's Marvel style, sometimes I get a page and it's something completely unexpected…which is always a blast. We'll probably work tighter at the beginning of the next arc, but I'm sure things will get looser quickly once we get into it. DD: What would you say[...]

However I didn't have the chutzpah to hold my phone up filming it all. Ramon Vitral did. And thanks to him and his blog, we now have these appearances and performances at the British Library as part of the attendance record breaking Comics Unmasked: Art And Anarchy In The UK exhibition and series of events, from Warren Ellis,[...]

This is how Mark Waid describes the origin of his new Thrillbent series, Insufferable. Mark Waid was Grant Morrison's editor on Doom Patrol, and worked with Morrison, Mark Millar and Tom Peyer on the abortive Superman HIVE pitch that caused such internal ructions at DC Comics that Waid was told he would never write the Superman[...]

Sequart Research & Literacy Organization, a publisher responsible for a substantial number of accessible and informative studies of significant comic creators and their work, announced this week the release of their latest book, The Anatomy of Zur-en-Arrh: Understanding Grant Morrison's Batman by Cody Walker As a comics scholar, I've been familiar with Sequart's books for[...]

As part of a series of events alongside the Comics Unmasked: Art And Anarchy In The UK exhibition, they had comics scholars Will Brooker and Sarah Zaidan  to deliver essays about the history of superheroes which, while interesting, might not have brought a crowd out on a Monday night in London. But that was okay, because they[...]

I'm more into what Grant Morrison termed back in our shared time in the X-Trenches, "superconsistency" That's always the best approach with these IP's… keep what works, ignore what doesn't, add what enhances We're just trying to do the best book we can, really. BC: How does approaching a property like this differ from either doing[...]

By Tony Wolf As a lifelong Grant Morrison fan, I'd long heard whispers of Zenith, the elusive longform, out-of-print postmodern late 80s/early 90s superhero series by Morrison and artist Steve Yeowell (his first collaborator on The Invisibles), originally serialized in the UK weekly anthology 2000AD. When news broke that Rebellion / 2000AD would be reprinting Zenith for[...]

By Tony Wolf and Michael Turney Tony Wolf writes: As a pop culture commentator, one of my lifelong dreams was to personally interview Grant Morrison face to face  Just a couple years ago, upon the release of Morrison's book Supergods, I got to make this dream come true  Sigil magick, or simple luck-meets-opportunity?  You decide!   My[...]

I spent the next year reading everything by Alan Moore and Neil Gaiman I could get my hands on, then Warren Ellis, and plenty of Grant Morrison, and just kept pulling threads that led me in new directions It was only after an initial canon read that I was ready to read "new" comics, and[...]

In the June issue of Comic Heroes, Grant Morrison expresses a wish to write a long run on The Flash And, with the likes of All Star Superman and his Batman run still selling gangbusters in collections, with much anticipation for Wonder Woman Earth One, it does feel a little like, what Grant Morrison wants,[...]

From the first press release for Grant Morrison's Multiversity… Comprising seven complete adventures — each set in a different parallel universe — a two part framing story, and comprehensive guidebook to the many worlds of the Multiverse, 'The Multiversity' is more than just a multi-part comic book series, it's a cosmos-spanning, soul-shaking experience that puts YOU[...]

There are more emotional ones and ones with deeper, more compelling mysteries but Hush aims squarely for the bat emblem at center mass of the character and hits right on target. Batman: The Black Mirror Prior to the New 52 launch in September 2011 DC made the surprising decision to let Grant Morrison kill Batman and give[...]

Vaughn, but turned it down because of the subject matter of cities and suits, which didn't appeal to him.  But Grant Morrison ended up being "good for my collection of crazy writers", he said,  "Collect them all!", when he signed on to do Bulleteer for Seven Soldiers of Victory. He was used to getting massive scripts[...]

A character created by the enigmatic purveyor of  Batman words, Grant Morrison While this animated movie isn't a true adaptation of Morrison's story, it does however adapt his essence of the character and the finished product is a movie with a run time of a little over an hour that's slow to the gate but is ultimately[...]
