Grant Morrison began his comics career in 1978, with contributions to the short-lived experimental comics magazine Near Myths. This promising start was immediately followed by eight years of poverty and unemployment. In 1986, however, he found himself working for Britain's 2000 AD, for whom he wrote the successful Zenith series. Morrison then found fame with acclaimed runs on ANIMAL MAN and DOOM PATROL, as well as his subversive creator-owned titles such as THE INVISIBLES, SEAGUY and WE3. He has also written best-selling runs on JLA, SEVEN SOLDIERS OF VICTORY and New X-Men and is currently hard at work helping to re-invent the DC Universe in ALL STAR SUPERMAN, 52 and BATMAN.
