The purple pin-stripe suit still stands out clearly in my head. That and the accent. I knew that we'd get to meet Grant Morrison, but thanks to a double booking our group (Pete LePage, John Suintres, Me, Scott Moschella, Jeaux Jeavanosky, Manny Mederos, and Steve Nelson) got to do his interview. I'm glad I didn't have to wrestle with Pete and John over the rights to actually interview him. Just kidding, there was no wrestling. John did the interview and Grant didn't hold anything back. Here's a...

Zero

POSTED BY CHARLIE SCHNEIDER, APRIL 09 2008 12:18 PM | PERMALINK

DC Comics Zero will be hitting shelves very soon. This super issue will feature a writing team-up including Grant Morrison and Geoff Johns, with the super-talents of artists George Pérez, Tony Daniel, J.G. Jones, Aaron Lopresti, Ivan Reis, Philip Tan and Carlos Pacheco.
