Allen says he needs a strong editor. I wonder if he could use a scripter. How would you fix Grant Morrison?

What, what was the question?

DC seems to think there's no need to fix him so nothing we can do. He can't end a story satisfactorily to save his F'n life but ah well.

How come Mark Millar gets his crap adapted and he's a consultant at Fox and Morrison has been ignored lately?

We need to fix this unjust situation ASAP.

I like the way you think.

In every world, in every universe, the life purpose of every Len Wein is to hire Alan Moore. Even in those universes where Alan Moore might not even be a comic book writer.

Because like most Grant Morrison stories, they end up being about Alan Moore one way or another.

Well, I haven't read them all. I was being cautious.

I fondly recall that Elseworlds issue in which Len was the manager of a McDonald's and he hired Moore as a burgerologist. Good times.

I imagine Millar's stuff is way more appealing and comprehensible to the average person. The only thing I can think of off the top of my head that would work for live-action adaptation is his JLA: New World Order arc.

Here's a question for mainly for Rafael and me (maybe Darragh if he's out there), but of course everyone is invited to play along -- we all know some pretty great Grant Morrison runs have been marred by less than stellar artwork.

So my fun hypothetical is this -- if you could have each run re-drawn by a different artist than the original, which artists would you choose? The catch -- you can only select one artist per run! So no choosing Frank Quitely or Cameron Stewart for everything. Sound okay? My choices...

    Action Comics (New 52) - Darwyn Cooke
    Animal Man - Brian Bolland
    Batman - Cameron Stewart
    Doom Patrol - Mike Allred
    Final Crisis - Arthur Adams
    The Invisibles - Dave Gibbons
    JLA - Frank Quitely
    New X-Men - Yanick Paquette
    One Million - Chris Burnham

I would love to have fit Jim Lee and Ed McGuinness in there because I really love their styles, but man, I just don't dig their storytelling.

Well, shit, I'd put Norman Rockwell on Action Comics and Salvidor Dali on Doom Patrol then.

In that case, lets have Len Wein write all that stuff, too.
