Since this is Grant Morrison we're talking about, I wouldn't be surprised if this guy actually was a dimension hopping Superman who showed up right when Grant needed him to.
I spoke to him at Glasgow Comic Con a few days ago, I was cosplaying as The Riddler. When I got a picture with him he leaned over to me and said "It's like a Lex Luthor and Riddler team-up here". I think he then pointed to a guy in a Batman costume and whispered something like "he's fucked". He's actually a nice, funny guy. I was pleasantly surprised.
I got their signature on a program at NYCC. The cover picture was a Jim Lee drawing of the JL and Grant signed it over Batman's rope so the signature looks like an extension of the drawing. 100% on model if you ask me.
I wonder if Morrison himself saw the irony in him talking to a Superman. Grant looks like Lex Luthor lol It's great cause he says how he always saw him posing and all that. But instead he talked to him and saw the humanity, something Lex himself refuses to do. If I walked past them I would of thought "there's Lex and Supes, just talking it out for once."
I agree with you so much. I kinda see All Star Superman similar to Dumbledore. Totally at ease with his surroundings and always on top of his game but not being stuck up or a douche about it. Also both are wise, well spoken and extremely polite even when owning the opponent.
Morrison is an awesome writer. His work with Mark Waid, Geoff Johns and Greg Rucka on 52 really got my interest in reading comics. Right now I'm following his work on Batman (Specially looking forward to Batman Inc. #1).
i love grant morrison work, how he can understand the kirby superhero cmics and the moore and neil stuff. but is SOOO hard for me to understand him when he speaks :/
I wonder if DC executives, who'd known Morrison's visionary nature, would have hired someone to cosplay Superman. I mean (really) if there were an actual Superman, we don't see him today. He's either keeping a (very) low-profile, or has disappeared into another dimension, or was a (real/imagined) manifestation of shamanic/psychoactive visions, or that entire experience was cosplayed into existence. My guess is one of the latter two, but with Grant's reality-bending nature, its all just as likely
When he's flipping through his notes and we see those sketches of Superman, are those his drawings? To my knowledge, Grant Morrison only writes, but maybe he has some penciling skills? Does anybody know?
@BROKENHOUSEFILMS Yeah he'd be picture perfect for the part of Luthor in any Superman film, I'm sure WB could work around a Scottish Lex Luthor, they've had stranger revisions before in lots of their DC comics films in the past ;-) I mean we've had an american John Constantine and Catwoman done up as a stripper :-P But unlike those portrayals Morrison could actually make this work and I wouldn't even mind him saying "SooperMon", I say go for it WB.
The basic irony is that pre-verbal children see us everywhere, but we’re made of language which cannot be easily processed by infant minds. ÐÆT’S WAJ KÅMJUNYKEJŠØN YZ SOW DÝFYKÅLT BYTWÍN ÅS.
I don't think Morrison gets Batman that well, but he understands Superman perfectly he's a much better writer when he does Superman as opposed to Batman who is in morrisons eyes is super intelligent and three steps ahead of everyone else and violent and sometimes murderous and has even called him gay, which would make him a pedophile which he is not. Batman is not a pederast he's not a catholic priest or from ancient Greece or feudal Japan he sees young men and women who are like him and wants to help them on their path to become heroes which is why I somewhat dislike Bruce Timm's interpretation because he put him in a romantic relationship with Batgirl which came off as gross and taking advantage or exploitive, also partly why the killing joke movie sucked. However Morrison makes Superman great by making him humble and decent who will save just one life by telling them they mean something and are precious to help make the world a better place which is really heartwarming and I wish he got Batman as well as he did Superman. And the same goes for other writers or vice versa in some cases.

Maybe he's the real Clark Kent 😂😲
Haha cool story 👍
Grant has a good imagination
Comic creator brain

Can you imagine being that cosplayer who has reached the maximum heights of cosplay, where they become the comic.. literally? :O
Cosplayer? That was definitely Superman, and nobody can convince me otherwise. 😝

Grant Morrison is basically the good version of Lex Luthor.
This dude is a legend. He literally met Superman
That would've been the coolest moment to witness.
Comics connects science and art
When you do the Great Work and enact your True Will, the universe will provide for you.
Indeed.
Love this man.
I agree with you so much.

He probably met mike ohearn as superman all star superman looks like mike o hearn and he's played superman before

Grant Morrison was high when he was "talking to superman".
goosebumps
dvd coming out Oct 25...it ROCKS
Agree with other comments - can't wait to see this documentary!
ESPN Commentator: Wow, Rocky Balboa said hi to me! I watched Rocky when I was a kid, I never thought that I would commentate one of his fights!!
I love Grant Morrison's hairdo!
@dirtydoris87 I believe the current DVD is actually REGION ZERO, so it can be played in any region.
i love grant morrison work, how he can understand the kirby superhero cmics and the moore and neil stuff. but is SOOO hard for me to understand him when he speaks :/

I agree with you completely.
CAnt wait, Grants beyond human.
I want to buy this documentary
Is this Talking with Gods movie ever coming out or what? I'd heard it was supposed to be launched at SD Comic Con.
Yes, he does draw.
Grant Morrison is so damn fashionable.
@Stepper11 Never mind. I did find it. Coming our the 25th. Just pre-ordered it. YAY!
Check out his interview at npr august 14?
thats awesome! he seems pretty cool.
where can I get this movie?
When he's flipping through his notes and we see those sketches of Superman, are those his drawings? To my knowledge, Grant Morrison only writes, but maybe he has some penciling skills? Does anybody know?
Yes Morrison has a history as an artist
I wish I was there when you were talking to superman sigh
I love that Superman picture sitting 👍
Cool story from comic legends
@BROKENHOUSEFILMS Yeah he'd be picture perfect for the part of Luthor in any Superman film, I'm sure WB could work around a Scottish Lex Luthor, they've had stranger revisions before in lots of their DC comics films in the past ;-) I mean we've had an american John Constantine and Catwoman done up as a stripper
:-P But unlike those portrayals Morrison could actually make this work and I wouldn't even mind him saying "SooperMon", I say go for it WB.
@Ramage181 read the comic
@subcmdr Yes, he is from Glasgow. He is also quite insane.
@spiderskunkify I think it's out already. Hell. Why pay for it when you can get it for free on a torrent?
His sketches of Supes remind me a lot of Capt. Marvel. One wonders what he'd do with Cap.

he looks like luthor
@FonedykSosajedi i saw it and was the first movie in 8 years that i needed to watch with subtitles XD
great movie
@clash75 way do u hate all star
This story is better than All Star Superman, in my opinion.
I agree, he should draw. I wonder why he doesn't?
@deraickripper watch "Trainspotting"
id have agreed if both of them hadn't seen him.
@TB492 he is going 2 be
@BROKENHOUSEFILMS i was thinking the exact same thing! gah! u beat me to it!!!
Guess they were high together.
@SkyFoxCode Why pay for it, SkyFoxCode? Well, if you want to see more of these documentaries, then we have to make our money back. You're the problem.
He looks like Lex Luthor😢
@BROKENHOUSEFILMS
HE IS LUTHOR...

Omg--Grant Morrison is the Anti-Monitor!! (JK sort of) Think about it--when continuity needs/is smashed to bits, who was/is the cosmic agitator?
now who do i prefer for a sandwich....
I didn't understand a single thing this guy said.
