About the author

Grant Morrison has been working with DC Comics for twenty five years, after beginning their American comics career with acclaimed runs on ANIMAL MAN and DOOM PATROL. Since then they have written such best-selling series as JLA, BATMAN and New X-Men, as well as such creator-owned works as THE INVISIBLES, SEAGUY, THE FILTH, WE3 and JOE THE BARBARIAN. In addition to expanding the DC Universe through titles ranging from the Eisner Award-winning SEVEN SOLDIERS and ALL-STAR SUPERMAN to the reality-shattering epic of FINAL CRISIS, they have also reinvented the worlds of the Dark Knight Detective in BATMAN AND ROBIN and BATMAN, INCORPORATED and the Man of Steel in The New 52 ACTION COMICS.

In their secret identity, Morrison is a "counterculture" spokesperson, a musician, an award-winning playwright and a chaos magician. They are also the author of the New York Times bestseller Supergods, a groundbreaking psycho-historic mapping of the superhero as a cultural organism. They divide their time between their homes in Los Angeles and Scotland.

Reviews

[Emilio Arias H. · Rating 3 out of 5]

En este tercer tomo, la visión metafísica y ocultista de Morrison empieza a asomar la nariz. Mete y saca personajes como si fueran simples piezas, y esto genera que no empaticemos con ellos y nos distanciemos de la historia. Igual, lo más flojo es la resolución (si se la puede llamar así) del arco argumental de los misiles nucleares que amenazan Londres. Ah, pero las citas literarias continúan, eso sí.
La parte gráfica está bastante bien, salvo en varias partes de acción, donde no se entiende bien qué sucede.

Por alguna razón, este era el único de la colección que no tenía marcado. Cuando lo relea, seguro escriba su correspondiente reseña.
