FOOL: Mark Millar Has Totally Ghost-Written Today's Wonder Woman #40
With Grant Morrison's Wonder Woman original graphic novel scheduled for November, it was just the chance that his sworn enemy and once bets friend Mark Millar would get in there first.

At that point she wasn't the pop star, but the children's author and that is how I'd like to photograph her.

Steve also tells us, I'm designing logos for Vertigo and DC[...]
The Rose In Winter – Sitting Down With The Multiversity Guidebook
Most helpful as always was the work of David Uzumeri over at Comics Allianc, and an interview from Matt Wilson at that same site, in which Grant Morrison confirmed a lot of the thinking that we've seen pop up in dissections of this story all across the comics (and sometimes the non-comics) internet. On one hand,[...]

The Infinity That Wasn't Incorporated: The Proposed Batgirling Of Infinity Inc.
However, the line could also be applied to the comic book industry whenever a new trend sweeps in, as the old guard rushes to embrace new normal. Some fifteen years ago, Grant Morrison argued that although he preferred paper comics, digital would eventually transform the landscape and that descendants of books like Mark Waid and Mike[...]
The Supercrash Of The Superheavy Fallen Star In Annihilator #5
It was always in plain sight—in the comic itself—and in interviews Grant Morrison has done—that Nomax may well be the devil, that Ray Spass may well be doomed, and that simply coming to understand the nature of the anti-hero might be a lot of the point of the comic[...]
Grant Morrison Adapting One Of His Own Comics As A TV Show
Grant Morrison has a new TV show in the works, based on one of his own comics. No, Brendon, not We3. I'm told to expect some crazy casting, comparable to the decision to cast Robert Downey Jr in Iron Man. A few years ago, there were plans for Bonnyroad… but this is not that. Man… it couldn't be Kill[...]
When Grant Morrison Could Have Owned A Chunk Of Marvel…
And his inability to keep Grant Morrison at Marvel on New X-Men, rather than moving to DC Comics for Batman. Marvel were rather keen to keep Morrison on X-Men… I do recall trying to keep Grant on the Marvel team – I even got the board to approve granting him a pile of stock options (which would have[...]
