If you’re a Morrison fan than you’ll definitely dig these. I think I actually like these story a little better than his other stuff, because you get to see him take these characters that seem hopelessly shitty, and make them really cool.

X-men: E is for Extinction August 10, 2005
Posted by BDcomics in : Comics ,
A nice reader just sent me some links he harvested from Google Caches of ThatsJustNotRight.com.
So, thanks to him, you’ll be getting some interesting new links.
The description straight from That’sJustNotRight
If you thought the Xmen movies took the characters into a different direction than the comics did, then this series will appeal to you.
Grant Morrison was a writer I got started with like 10 years ago when he did ‘invisibles’ for DC’s Vertigo. At the time when sandman was one of the most substantive and thought provoking reads on the shelves at the corner store it was unlike any comic written before.
And largely a pain in the ass to read. The writers influences were so esoteric that folowing what he was saying was hard for a twenty year old to fathom. He blended..well, this thread isnt about invisibles.
E is for Extinction is Morrison being given carte blanche with the Xmen series and he blows minds with what he did. His work here injected more realism than had been put into the stories. gone were the colorful spandex outfits and blind heroics.
He started with questioning what motivates the members of the teams and ahhhshit what I am I james lipton kissing his ass onstage on inside the comics studio?
