Grant Morrison looks to be headed back to Image Comics in the near future.
Per Image Comics via a September 12 Instagram post, fan-favorite writer Grant Morrison seems to be on the cusp of making a return to the hit indie publisher. Presumably, fans won’t have to wait long for an announcement regarding whatever new project Morrison will be helming for Image, although no firm details have been released at the time of writing.
DC Gives Batman His Very Own Iron Man Armor
DC introduces Batman’s newest high-tech armor — and it eerily resembles Iron Man’s classic MCU suit.
Morrison’s earliest works in the literary industry include their work on Starblazer for D. C. Thomson, as well as contributions made to various UK titles throughout the early and mid-1980s. Morrison made the move to Marvel UK in 1986, leading to runs on Doctor Who Magazine and Spider-Man and Zoids. Arguably, Morrison’s biggest breakthrough came during their run on Animal Man, which led to the acclaimed scribe taking over writing duties on Doom Patrol.
Although Morrison has penned stories for several publishers including Dynamite, BOOM! Studios and Ahoy Comics, much of their work falls under the DC Comics umbrella. In regards to Morrison’s previous Image Comics work, the author penned three issues of Spawn back in 1993 alongside Greg Capullo and Todd McFarlane, while the 2010s saw the releases of both Happy! and Nameless, which were developed and produced by Morrison alongside Darick Robertson and Chris Burnham, respectively. Morrison also wrote several issues of Image Comics’ Vampirella in the mid and late-1990s, namely the first nine issues and three story arcs of 1997’s Vampirella Monthly.
Fantastic Four: An Upcoming MCU Icon Just Upended the Marvel Multiverse
One of the most brilliant minds in the entire Marvel Universe rewrites the rules of the Multiverse to save two realities.
In November 2023, Morrison discussed their previous pitch for a Wonder Woman film that, unfortunately, was not picked up by Warner Brothers. The concept, entitled Wonder Woman: Earth One, was just one branch of the Earth One line that Morrison described as “another of former DC supremo Dan Didio’s attempts to create a kind of ‘Ultimate’ DC Universe free from old school continuity baggage, where streamlined, modernized, more grounded ‘realistic’ versions of characters could appear in contemporary stories made to appeal to a 21st century audience.” Morrison continued, “The failure of the line to accomplish this task lay not in the artistic merits of the individual books but in their unwillingness to cohere as a single new universe. […] This lack of consistency meant that individual projects could easily be ignored or dismissed.”
