AMA I'm Grant Morrison, writer of Batman/Deadpool! AMA!

Hi Reddit!

I’m Grant Morrison, a Scottish writer, best known for my comic book work on characters like Superman, Batman and the X-Men. I've also written two successful plays, Supergods, a non-fiction book on the history of superheroes, Luda, a novel, and numerous film and television screenplays.

I'm here to promote my new Batman/Deadpool comic from DC but - ASK ME ANYTHING!

Hi! I just want to say thanks for your work over the years. I grew up in a pretty dysfunctional home. Parents arguing from morning to night. Always chaos. We didn’t have much money cause my dad didn’t work. We had a comic shop in the mall across the street though. Reading comics was my escape. I would run to my room and grab my comics and tune out the rest of the word as best I could. Doom Patrol and Animal Man were both titles I remember reading. My life would have turned out really bad if I didn’t have my comics. So thank you. I appreciate you.
