books by Grant Morrison     books:       JLA, Vol. 1 (Deluxe)5 reviews Grant Morrison DC Comics, 2008 The League's Rebirth One day, early in 1996, Grant Morrison wondered if DC would like to relaunch the Justice League. The sales of the Justice League have fallen off. The League was now populated with second and third tier characters in the DCU. Mr. Morrison's plans were simple. He wanted the A list League. When people think of the Justice League, he said in interviews, they think of DC's big guns, Superman, Batman, ...             New X-Men, Vol. 3 Grant Morrison Marvel Comics, 2008 Sixteen million mutants dead - and that was just the beginning! In one bold stroke, writer Grant Morrison (All-Star Superman, Batman) propelled the X-Men into the 21st century - masterminding a challenging new direction for Marvel's mutant heroes that began with the destruction of Genosha and never let up. Regarded as the most innovative thinker of the current comic-book renaissance, Morrison proceeded to turn the mutant-hero genre on its ear. ...             All Star Superman, Vol. 2 Grant Morrison DC Comics, 2009             Batman: The Resurrection of Ra's Al Ghul9 reviews Grant Morrison, Paul Dini DC Comics, 2008 Highly entertaining read People are far too critical of this book, and it is a real shame, as the book, cover to cover is a fun read. This is a comic. Yes, I know it written in large part by Grant Morrisson, which raised expectations, but it is a comic book. It isn't meant to be Shakespeare. it is menat to entertain, and man ohhh man, does it ever. I couldn't put it down. The art is truly wonderful, and the colors ...             All Star Superman, Vol. 138 reviews Grant Morrison DC Comics, 2008 The greatest Superman story ever told... ((NOTE: This review is for both volumes one and two.)) I've never read a better Superman story, and I've read many Superman stories. Morrison weaves you through Superman's struggle to understand himself, his relationships, all seen through the eyes of his own mortality and the potential loss of life bearing down upon him. It was for me some of the finest reading I've ever done. There were ...             Batman and Son26 reviews Grant Morrison DC Comics, 2008 Good introduction into a comic book novel This is Grant Morrison's entry into the world of the Dark Knight. Well, not exactly, he had written Batman in the pages of JLA in the late 90s and did a fabulous job of it. Many people have referred to Morrison's Batman as the Bat-God or uber Bat because Batman managed to pull off feats that appeared to surpass all other heroes. And now he begins to write Batman on a "monthly" basis. The ...             Batman: Arkham Asylum (15th Anniversary Edition)74 reviews Grant Morrison DC Comics, 2005 Fantastic This was an amazingly detailed graphic novel. It was rich in character development as well as story line. I strongly suggest that those with a craving for everything Batman buy this.             52, Vol. 210 reviews Geoff Johns, Grant Morrison, ... DC Comics, 2007 review for all four volumes DC's 52 was highly ambitious, which made me more than a little nervous, since projects as big as these usually fall flat. With the big three missing, Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman, DC picks up some acilliary characters and kind of turns them into the modern age superheroes. Really DC is trying to kick start some other books. But they do a good job, especially since there is a book a week. ...             52, Vol. 124 reviews Geoff Johns, Grant Morrison, ...

Let me start this off by saying, The Black Glove is one of the best batman stories i've ever read, dare I say, better than Jeph Loeb's HUSH! First of all i recommend you buy "Batmand and Son" and read that before buying this book. Both books contribute to the build up of Batman RIP. This book starts off with issues #667 - #669 for the first half. In these four issues, Batman goes to a ...             New X-Men, Vol. 22 reviews Grant Morrison Marvel Comics, 2008 The X-Men take their new mission global Grant Morrison's revolutionary take on the X-Men continues here. Fresh from his encounter with Cassandra Nova, Prof. X decides to take his mutant vision global. With Jean Grey in tow, Xavier tours France, Great Britain, India, and the ruins of Genosha, visiting each of his brand new high-tech X-Corp locations.

Vertigo, 2001 As things get worse for the Invisibles, things only get better for us! The third volume of The Invisibles--my personal favorite--opens with the brutal interrogation of King Mob. As his teammates rush to his rescue, Jack Frost, who deserted the team in the previous volume, goes home to Liverpool. Jack, driven over the edge by the memory of the soldier he was forced to kill in Vol. 2 and the knowledge that he is the next messiah, could care less about his friends. Yet ...             Batman #681 RIP Grant Morrison DC, 2008 This is it - "Batman R.I.P." concludes here! The final, heartrending confrontation between Bruce Wayne and Jezebel Jet. The final fate of The Dark Knight. And the horrifying and shocking truth behind the Black Glove. With The Joker, the Club of Villains, Robin, Damian, plus an ending you'll never see coming - this one has it all! Retailers please note: This issue will ship with two covers.

I loved the first volume of THE INVISIBLES. It was intelligent and funky and far-out. The first story arc of Volume 2 (collected in 'Bloody Hell in America') was good, but not a patch on what had gone before. It seemed too much like an attempt to 'dumb-down' and 'bloody-up' the series for the benefit of the economically all-important Preacher demographic. But the stories collected in this ...             Bloody Hell in America (The Invisibles, Book 4)16 reviews Grant Morrison, Phil Jimenez Vertigo, 1998 The Invisibles, Book 4: Bloody Hell in America After the release of issue #25 of the Invisibles (collected in Book 3: "Entropy in the UK"), DC/Vertigo halted publication of the series for a few months. During this hiatus, creator/writer Grant Morrison revised his approach to the series. Deciding that the previous volume had been "British" and that the new one would be "American," Morrison abandoned the methodical pace of Volume 1 and ...             John Constantine, Hellblazer: Rare Cuts6 reviews Jamie Delano, Grant Morrison, ... Vertigo, 2005 Some of the best Hellblazer work Collecting a variety of Hellblazer comics that never made it to graphic novel print, this is the perfect start for someone who has never touched the comic in the past. Collecting Delano's "Newcastle: A Taste of Things to Come," Dead-Boy's Heart," and "In Another Part of Hell," Ennis' "This is the Diary of Danny Drake," and Morrison's "Early Warning" and "How I Learned to Love the Bomb," some of ...             Batman: Gothic13 reviews Grant Morrison DC Comics, 2007 Gotham goes to hell Comic visionary Grant Morrison (The Filth, JLA, New X-Men; c'mon already, you know the list) came up with this Batman tale, taking place in Bruce Wayne's early part of his career as Batman. Gothic follows Batman investigating just who is picking off mobsters in Gotham City, one of which claims that it's a man who won't stay dead. What this spells for Batman is locked in his own past, as he has ...             New X-Men, Vol. 14 reviews Grant Morrison, Frank Quitely Marvel Comics, 2008 This book is awesome! Grant Morrison's X-Men run is probably the best X-Men run in the last decade. Ironically, it's a little different than other classic runs... and that's what makes it so special. Without spoiling anything, Grant changes the status quo with the X-Men without really changing core concepts of the X-Men. His stories turn the entire framework for the X-Men on their face. The stories are ...             JLA Vol. 3: Rock of Ages24 reviews Grant Morrison DC Comics, 1998 An excellent time travel story These were originally published as JLA #10-#15. The story throws a few large curves in the beginning. The unexpected part of the Justice League is that all of the characters have their own story lines, so major events like Wonder Woman dying and Superman turning into pure energy contained in a blue and white suit happen outside of the JLA stories. But having Aztec join the JLA in his own ...              search for books 15th, ages, america, anniversary, arkham, asylum, batman, black, bloody, book, constantine, counting, cuts, deluxe, edition, entropy, ghul, glove, gothic, hell, hellblazer, invisibles, john, none, rare, resurrection, rock, star, superman, x-men books:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
