In addition to his groundbreaking four-year New X-Men run, Morrison's Marvel credits include Fantastic Four: 1234 and Marvel Boy. Morrison then shifted focus to Marvel Comics, where he had already made a brief pit-stop co-writing 1995's bizarre Skrull Kill Krew with Mark Millar. Subsequent DC projects included Kid Eternity, Sebastian O, Flex Mentallo, Kill Your Boyfriend, Aztek, Invisibles, DC One Million, Flash and a hugely popular revamping of DC's JLA. In 1989, he wrote the best-selling Batman graphic novel Arkham Asylum and began a memorably surreal run as writer of the freakish heroes of DC's Doom Patrol. After co-creating the popular strip Zenith with artist Steve Yeowell in 2000 AD, Morrison made his mark in America with DC Comics, where he revived an obscure hero to critical acclaim in his Animal Man series. One of the most original and widely respected writers in comics, Glasgow-born Grant Morrison got his start with British indie comics during the late 1970s and early 1980s before working on Marvel UK features such as Zoids.
