Annihilator #1 by Grant Morrison and Frazer Irving is published by Legendary Comics today And you might consider it a companion piece to Multiversity #1 as well. That comic made a big deal of breaking down the fourth wall, literally having the narrator address the reader, asking them to stop reading the comic, because of what[...]

Smith After fellow writer Joe Colewood and I did a piece discussing the merits of Grant Morrison's Multiversity #1, it dawned on me that I was nowhere near as qualified to critique Grant Morrison's work as I had initially thought As a result, I've decided it's high time I give some works of his that I've[...]

Grant Morrison has talked a  few times about the Kid Marvelman story he was asked to write for Warrior Magazine back in the day, after they'd fallen on bad terms with Alan Moore, only to get a note from Alan Moore asking him please not to. Well, there's no one to stop him now. We'd previously told[...]

Moreover, Grant Morrison has been my favorite writer since I first picked up a copy of JLA #5 in my local comic shop as a nine year old lad.  The very idea of Multiversity felt like a perfect combination of two things I enjoyed…Of course, no one ever told me I'd have to wait five[...]

Smith: My cards have been on the table regarding Grant Morrison's work for a long time – people seem to think I give him too hard a time of it or that I just don't like his work Not true I liked Arkham Asylum, JLA: Earth 2, his work on Hellblazer and even his Happy![...]

For a while, Marvel were doing a great job with the friendship between Anole and Rockslide, but with those characters being quite separated of late, it's a relationship that has been sorely lacking in comics too. And just check out their awesome apartment! Finally, the big one for me: this week we see the introduction of two[...]

DC Comics has informed retailers that the following trade paperback collections have a few copies left in the warehouse but will be going out of print

Aaron Haaland of A Comic Shop in Orlando, Florida, writes: Hey Fandom! I'm back with a stack of New Comics Now! For DC we have the trippy Multiversity #1

Often for a reason. But, with Bleeding Cool running Grant Morrison's cover for Multiversity #1 (above) that felt like a great chance to show off the cover work of creators better known for their writing…  Jonathan Ross' cover for Revenge #1 Mark Millar's cover for Nemesis. Jonathan Hickman on Fantastic Four. Jim Shooter's cover to Rai #0.   Gerard Way's cover for[...]

This is the 1:100 variant cover for Multiversity #1, the new reality-bending comic book series written by Grant Morrison, the first issue drawn by Ivan Reis and Joe Prado, coloured by Nei Ruffino. I don't know about you, but it looks to me as if it has been drawn by Grant Morrison himself And based on[...]

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[...]

Jason Shawn Alexander, Dave McKean, Kent Williams, David Mack, Bill Sienkiewicz, Grant Morrison, Stephanie Inagaki, Barron Storey, and Ryan Graff were some of the guests The project has just launched its Kickstarter, and showing a trailer in the panel, we heard some of the questions posed by the documentary, like seeing art, asking "How does[...]

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[...]
