Biography

Aside from Dante, his other works include Shakara, Shimura, and stints on Batman, Spider-Man's Tangled Web, Titan Comics' Doctor Who, and Wildstorm superhero comics The Authority and Wildcats. In 2012, he was brought in by Dave Gibbons to work on digital comic Treatment, drawn by Doug Braithwaite. In June 2013, publishers Jonathan Cape release Drowntown.
Morrison's writing is noted for an epic, in some ways slightly old-fashioned feel. He has stated in a 2005 interview in the Judge Dredd Megazine that he is interested in reviving comic strips in genres other than science fiction, superhero and fantasy fictions. In addition to his creative duties, Morrison has worked as a consultant for the Scottish Arts Council, promoting the comics format.
