Back in August, advanced box art for this month's "Superman/Batman: Public Enemies," teased another upcoming DC Comics feature "Justice League: Crisis On Two Earths"—a title with far-reaching fan implications.

Now, it seems Warner Bros. is ready to shed additional light on the project, with new screens featuring a "good" Lex Luthor, a fully stocked JLA and Batman's alternate-universe doppelganger, Owlman. Read more...
We've presented several clips already from an interview with best-selling comics author Grant Morrison conducted by Eisner-nominated writer, musician and producer Percy Carey (a.k.a. MF Grimm), but I feel pretty safe saying that we've saved the best for last. In this final interview segment, Morrison addresses why we haven't seen a movie based on his massively popular, surreal comic book series "The Invisibles" -- and why he thinks it might be better off as a video game instead.
"Yeah, I'd love to see it, but it's not happening anytime soon," said Morrison. "I kind of want to do a different take on it, because obviously when 'The Matrix' came out, it was covering a lot of similar areas. There were bald guys in fetish amounts doing kung-fu." Read more...
Last week, we presented several clips from an interview with best-selling comics author Grant Morrison, conducted by Eisner-nominated writer, musician and producer Percy Carey (a.k.a. MF Grimm). Among other topics, Morrison discussed his work on "Batman & Robin", and now in this new clip, he discusses the difference between his work on iconic characters in series like "All-Star Superman" and his personal projects like "Seaguy."
"To me, doing 'All Star Superman' is as important as doing something like 'Seaguy,' which is more personal for me, but ... They're obviously very different comics, but I try to approach them with the same feel," said Morrison. Read more...
Yesterday, we presented the first in a series of clips from an interview with best-selling comics author Grant Morrison, conducted by Eisner-nominated writer, musician and producer Percy Carey (a.k.a. MF Grimm). Morrison discussed his work on "Batman & Robin" in the previous clip, and in this one, he addresses the nature of deconstruction in comics and how it relates to his work on titles like "All-Star Superman."
"I came into comics at a time when people were doing what I would call deconstruction, stuff like 'Watchmen' and 'Dark Knight' and some of the things that followed them that were breaking down the hero or examining what it might be like to be a superhero in the real world," said Morrison. "I wanted to do the opposite. Those guys were bringing heroes into our world, and I wanted to see what it was like in the world of the heroes, and what it would be like to live in a place where the skies were primary color blue and where time cuts between panels and your entire universe can be erased by some guy's whim."

[EDITOR'S NOTE: I'm both honored and thrilled to present the following interview with comics legend Grant Morrison, which was conducted by Eisner-nominated writer, musician and producer Percy Carey, a.k.a. MF Grimm ("Sentences: The Life of MF Grimm"). Over the course of the interview, Carey covered a wide range of topics with Morrison that we'll present over the next few days here on Splash Page. But first, a message from Carey...]
I've had my share of run-ins with comic book legends, hall-of-famers even, but I'm a little animated at the moment. Who can blame me? "Animal Man," "The Invisibles," "JLA," "Batman R.I.P"...
Recently, I was given the opportunity to interview Mr. Grant Morrison. Morrison continues to be one of the comic book industry's most revered writers and is currently sitting atop the New York Times best-seller list for his graphic novel efforts. I hope you all enjoy this video interview as Morrison talks in detail about "Batman and Robin," "Final Crisis" and other topics. I know I did!

You would think a Grant Morrison-Guillermo del Toro team-up would be a no-brainer -- but the two have been trying to push an idea through the Hollywood machine for several years now. And at this point, it seems to be stuck.
“Sleepless Knights” was an idea Morrison scripted that would be a sort of fairy tale, which del Toro was attached to direct. Thanks to a time-machine error, the world gets stuck on Halloween, permanently -- kind of like “Groundhog Day,” but for everyone. Ghosts, goblins, and other creatures think of it as a free-for-all, and start running wild. That is, until a new kind of Ghostbusters, called the "Sleepless Knights," start fighting them.

Okay, so if Josh Schwarz has the rosters of "X-Men: First Class," "The New Mutants," "Generation X," "New X-Men," and "Young X-Men" to draw from for his upcoming younger X-Men film, might he do some good by revisiting Grant Morrison's run on the series, too? Although the youth weren't always the focus of his "New X-Men" run, they were the metaphor.
"When the X-Men started, Stan Lee was thinking about prejudice," Morrison told MTV. "Mutants can talk about civil rights as a stand-in [for other races]. Then it became a metaphor for gayness and gay culture, about coming out, having pride. But to me, it was about a war against youth." Read more...
Grant Morrison -- a huge gaming aficionado -- is already working on one videogame-based movie with "Area 51," but he's starting to give up hope that his idea for "Citizen Death" will ever become a game at all. So he wrote it as a comic.
"I wrote the script for a comic one night just for the hell of it," he said.
"Citizen Death" started out as an idea for a game, way before Morrison ever tinkered with 2003's Xbox game "Battlestar Galactica" or 2004's "Predator: Concrete Jungle." He originally told MTV News that he wrote the game as segments and levels, with the idea to create a city "that was really immersive." Read more...
Grant Morrison has long dreamed of making "The Filth" into a movie -- he's often talked about how Bruce Willis would be great as Greg Feely/Ned Slade, how Mickey Rourke should be Spartacus Hughes. But at one point, it was almost a TV show.
"Channel 4 was very interested in doing 'The Filth,'" Morrison told us recently. "We did a big TV series pitch."
But the reason the project stalled had nothing to do with any of the reasons you might think. Sure, "The Filth" has characters who rape and characters with extra breasts. There are porn stars and pornography and allegations of pedophilia and all the sorts of things that a series with that title could warrant -- plus lots of sperm. Giant sperm. Black sperm.

Despite what you may have seen on the Internet, the cover art floating around that’s purported to be for Neil Gaiman’s upcoming Batman two-parter, "Whatever Happened to the Caped Crusader?" It’s not real.
“That wasn’t the cover,” Gaiman said Sunday (November 9) at an event commemorating the 20th anniversary of his "Sandman" stories.
“What it was, was a trial of an idea to draw the cover of 'Batman' #1,” Gaiman explained, “and it didn’t work out really well.” Read more...
