Warren Ellis vs. Grant Morrison

I think they are comparable. Ellis has a taste for crazy subject matter, just like Morrison.
Thoughts?

Roughrider, I hope this adequately answers your question 😐

I'd say so ... and quite eloquently at that.

Morrison.

Ellis. I've read stuff by Grant that's bad, though a lot that's decent. But I think he's overrated. I haven't disliked anything I've read of Ellis.

Warren Ellis

Warren Morrison

Close, but Grant.

No, seriously. Both are superb writers, among my favorite ones.

Grant Morrision gave us Animal Man, Doom Patrol, Arkham Asylum, the Invisibles, Batman - Gothic, Rock of Ages...Warren Ellis gave us Transmetropolitan, Stormwatch, The Authority, Planetary...

Overall, Grant wins this.

Grant Ellis

Warren Worthington. =P

warren seems to like a corrupt american government [crooked little vein, thunderbolts, even nextwave] and unborn universes in need of a big bang, and grant seems to like doing drugs and giving pseudo-science a revival in every goddamn story he's written. both are good, and despite ellis kind of being a dick, i prefer his work.

Ellis for the stomp!

Does Morrison lose points for his recent "Batman & Son" storyline?
