Great interview. "I'm pissed and I'll be coming up on the drugs in half an hour. Keep an eye out for that."

I'm not always convinced of what GM says, but he's always entertaining when he says it.

Grant's been pretty Internet silent this year, eh?

Defending your beautiful wife from sleazy and abusive potshots is a full-time job.

just added: LOOKING BACK AT SEVEN SOLDIERS [nov 06]

Newsarama link lifted from the 7S thread. post-finale in-depth view of the maxi-series' themes, craft and who the hell are the 7 Unknown Men + Batman tidbits.

LOL, yeah. Still, I hope they're both doing well.

BTW, his latest Newsarama interview was wonderful. I loved it. Long and comprehensive and juicy. He put a lot of people's concerns to rest while giving us a nice peek into his work process. I love how he associates it with music; how writing can be as fluid and adaptive as the process of making music. It echoes a lot of what Jeff Noon was describing back in the 90s as to the potential of language and storytelling. Great stuff.

Short interview with Grant about Animal Man, and Buddy Baker's presence in 52 [wasn't sure if I should put this here or in the 52 thread]:

Grant and Buddy, two great tastes that taste great together.

thanks, Finder. any new interview link, no matter how short the piece is, can be posted here.

We can never see inside their heads, but I know they both love each other a lot, LOL.

Do Grant's comments about mean that 52 will see the end of Buddy Baker...!?!?

That quick little Q&A makes me want to see a Morrison series that would boil down to: Decent Human Beings. Without being facetious, either. Clearly, he's got the talent to do it (seriously - writing a bunch of decent people being decent is hard; maybe only the potagonists, makes it a little easier, but when the antagonist is trying to do right, too? Do right by others, and themselves, and all? Aargh!) and he has an interest in the type. Just imagine...

Oh my gosh!!! A WHOLE BOOK OF INTERVIEW!!! I love it! I can't wait!!!

The book is a collection of columns from sequart.com with some new stuff, including the interview. More details toward the bottom of this page.

Sherlock Holmes, eh?

You know, I've always wished that Morrison would try some writing and design in videogames again. And there's a new Sherlock Holmes computer game in the works that deals with the Great Detective venturing into the world of the Cthulhu Mythos -

No. I should stop right there. It's probably something else.

(But oh god if it were that)

just yesterday I was thinking that's been a while since a new interview surfaced, and what a nice internet x-mas gift that'd make...

So I’ve got four or five projects out from Vertigo next year.

wa-hoo!

Just posted to the Arthur Magazine Magpie blog (www.arthurmag.com/magpie/) the complete text of the lengthy cover feature interview with Grant that we ran in the pages of the mag back in 2004. Enjoy.

Thank you, Jay.

I always wanted to read that interview, and never knew how I could get the magazine here in Brazil.
 
 
Mug Chum
04:52 / 01.02.07
Although I can't seem to find the damn thing.
 
 
Mug Chum
20:15 / 01.02.07
So, anyone read it?

Care to tell me where is it?

EDIT: oops, found it. I was a bit too eager and went before it was posted.

(sorry for the triple posting)

Jay you fool! I was going to splash out for the back-issue for that interview soon, you just saved me a fiver. I might still get it though, it is a brilliant cover (the new issue was great btw, good work on the mag).
 
 
Mug Chum
21:32 / 01.02.07
Thanks, Malio!

thanks a lot, Jay!

i love it that i only find all the cool Morrison interviews when i'm about to get some sleep before a new work morning. so long, sleep, let's read this shit.

later on i'll add this and the recent wizard one on batman to the main post.

aaaannnnd... that was a great read. thanks, ARTHUR mag!

interestingly enough I've just stumbled the announcement of an Alan Moore book on Magic for 2009. [scroll down a bit]

that'll be enough reason for Morrison to rush his and get it released.

Cripes, I sure hope so, Hector. I've been waiting on that book for years.

from the Arthur Mag interview linked above:

>> Japan’s reaction to immense post-War trauma was to dress itself up as a shrieking 16-year-old schoolgirl and make sure everything was pink and flashing!

Contender for 'best sentence in interview.' Thanks for the link! Good stuff, glad to have the opportunity to finally read this.
 
 
Tim Tempest
21:30 / 02.02.07
I thought that was a particularly wicked line as well, Finder.

Previously unpublished interview (I think?) from 1999 now up here.

sorry rotting, but acually getting weird shivers of fun from just the marketing bumf on the top shelf site. if any of it's even half true General Moseley is going to need to raise his game rather.

I don't know, chief - I'd rather crawl through the office, naked, repeatedly screaming 'I am the worm man' two hours before my annual appraisal than have anythng to do with 'Korgi', say.
 
 
_Boboss
11:16 / 24.02.07
sorry? korgi? only looking at the alan moore page...
 
 
Alex's Grandma
11:38 / 24.02.07
Well I typed in 'Top Shelf' and was ... diverted, briefly

I agree that Alan Moore's new material seems a lot more interesting than George's; it's just that one wonders when Alan's ever going to get it out, as it were?

Interesting news .....Morrison is going to a write a film adaptation of the arcade-game-turned-XBox-game AREA 51.

Many fans are already grousing about the excessive workload on Grant's seemingly already full plate...

Also, Morrison will be on the comics podcast Fanboy Radio talking about stuff.

Info. about the podcast

Sweet. This is gonna' be badass. Anyone going to fone in live to the show? I'd love to, but I've got a class at the same time. And even though I'm a badass, I can't skip it today.

But again: Area 51? GM? Badass, mothatruckas.

Keep it real.
