Grant Morrison on “Right-Wing Superman” They Banned

Since then Injustice: The Gods Among Us appeared in 2013 and regarded Superman as an opponent, and Man of Steel gave the impression of a great man who was more cruel than the translation that had come before, the idea of ​​the Iron Man being nothing but a bright light of hope of encountering humiliation. Those who do not like the Superman brand really they do not like, and you can count on a comedian Grant Morrison among them.

Interview with Youtuber of Ireland Daniel Fee, Morrison spoke of how tno was was brought back to DC Comics and in particular, a Superman & Authority services since the beginning of this year. At first, they did not want a return to the printer, but is Editor-in-Chief Dan Didio he was able to speak to them in writing Green Lantern from 2018 to 2020, and the same deception worked with Superman’s book. The plan was to make the book part of the “Generation Five” – ​​which was said to be for new or soon-to-be new characters to become famous heroes, and was transformed into “Future State”Since the beginning of this year. And the Superman system was … well, it was something!

“The idea was that Superman was now the ruler of the far right wing, and he made this team the ruler,” Morrison laughed. Immediately they shot it down, saying, “Superman is not a winger of hand wings! This is not the way you are doing … please do not make him a cruel man with right wings, then just. no Superman. ”

As a result, Morrison and Mikel Janin’s Superman & Authority was born, because he was worried that someone might make Supes fascist. Their purpose was to portray the Man of Steel as “like a father, but sometimes he has to give orders, but for good reason.” If Morrison has their way and is not “deceived” again, this will be the last book he does with DC, and he is fine with that. Feeling like he had to work on the book to protect the man, he admitted he was glad it was their last DC job.

In the past, Morrison has spoken of his potential Authority to see Clark go through a central crisis. After writing about the genre continuously, Morrison still finds the connection between them variety depends on quality. In their eyes, this Superman of Authority fits well with the t-shirt worn by Superman that he wrote Action Comics Games on New 52 before being combined with its cosmic after-Problems in a World Without Limits yourself. “In the early years of Superman, I thought he was the same guy with Authority. He was a little naughty kid, punk, he didn’t care … I guess [Authority] being the old type of it. I do not know if everything fits together, but in my head everything fits together. Whether they are connected or not, none of Morrison’s Superman’s can attempt to take over the world, so there it is.

Superman & Authority it has now come out as a strong cover.
