Are the regular folks in the DCU aware of the New Gods? Does a Renee Montoya know about Metron or Big Barda?
MORRISON: They don�t. They can feel the influence of them, but they don�t know about them. Superman, Batman and the Justice League know about the New Gods because they�ve met them, but we�ve never really seen the New Gods in their full power before. We�ve seen their actions. The DC superheroes see the New Gods as other superheroes in the way that Orion or Barda can join the Justice League. They�ve never understood that what they really are are f---ing gods. This story�s about the first time Darkseid actually manifests on the planet. Everything we�ve ever seen before has been kind of projections from the world of the New Gods and for the first time we�re seeing them in their full power. And it�s like what would happen if a god appeared on the planet. Galactus is one god. This is a whole bunch of them�that�s how bad it is.

Heh.

Can't be sure yet. That was just example of what they really are in comparison to what they appear to be.

Very popular (controversial) writer whose work you've probably read (like New X-Men, the first series, and JLA). He kinda likes to dabble in the New Gods mythos, as his run on JLA can attest.

Far as the fight goes, I'll give the nod to the Celestials for the present.

Yeah something rings a bell I just isn't so good at remembering names.

To my knowlegde he has never written anything with involved Galactus and yet he is comparing the new gods to him... I think he forgot that there is a powerlevel between gods. Thor is a God but so is Odin...

This morrison guy sounds out of his mind. Changing everything about the new gods that we have ever known basically. Maybe it will be good but I was hoping for a new villain for Final Crisis but Ill have to wait and see.

and he's actually nicknamed 'the mad scotsman'. yes

(please log in to view the image)

so yes Quan, he's completely out of his mind.

But he's also a brilliant writer and a genius at plotting. I'm hoping for another Seven Soldiers level masterpiece. eek!

Deus ex Source. cool

The both of them are insane. laughing out loud

I don't know if Moore's ever claimed to have been been abducted by aliens. But he has claimed to have met John Constantine, and he worships some Snake God.

And Grant has a huge ego.

THE PULSE: What do you think of some of the current comics trends?

MORRISON: I don't read enough of 'em anymore, so there are probably all kinds of trends I'm missing - everybody just seems to be going in his or her own direction, which is fine by me. I loved the last few issues of Joe Kelly's JLA. JLA/Avengers has been great, old skool fun. The Human Target is brilliant and I'm looking forward to Wanted. There's a lot of good stuff around, although nothing quite earth-shattering or paradigm-shifting at the moment.

I must admit I have no time for the '80s style "serious superheroes" books riding the retro wave; never resisting any chance to gratuitously stick the boot in, I thought Watchmen was self-conscious, derivative, and heavy-handed when it first appeared and time hasn't mellowed my opinion of this vastly overrated series - so the comics I dislike most of all at the moment are filled with unsexy '80s retro "superheroes-in-the-real-world" type stories. All these soldiers-in-tights comics seem miserly and lacking in wonder, surrealism or novelty. Even Alan Moore himself ran screaming from this kind of story and began an ungainly, 15-year long attempt to reinvent himself as me. So why anyone would look to the awkward pomposity of mid-'80s comics for inspiration is baffling.
