Grant Morrison (born 31 January 1960) is a Scottish comic book writer, playwright and occultist. They are known for their nonlinear narratives and counter-cultural leanings, as well as their successful runs on titles like Animal Man, Doom Patrol, JLA, The Invisibles, New X-Men, Fantastic Four, All-Star Superman, and Batman. Morrison has become more involved in screenwriting and has written numerous scripts and treatments.
One of the biggest desires of man is the gift of foresight. Unfortunately, no amount of fortune tellers and crystal balls will help on this one, but there’s always Earth-12… Rotating on a slightly different frequency than other worlds in the Multiverse, Earth-12 is set in a timeline slightly ahead of Earth-0—it’s that Earth’s future realized. On Earth-12, Batman’s successor, Terry McGinnis, is a tough kid shaped by the mean streets of Neo-Gotham. Under a now elderly Bruce Wayne’s guidance, Terry has been joined by Green Lantern, Superman, Warhawk, Aquagirl, Big Barda, Micron and others to form a team known as Justice League Beyond. Together this team, like the Justice League that preceded it, battles the evil that threatens this world. Earth-12 serves as a reminder that the future is often a sad reminder that problems and shortcomings may never be solved, and in fact sometimes worsen. However, it can also be a source of comfort and hope—an advanced world where heroes like Terry and the Justice League Beyond continue our quest for truth, justice and a better tomorrow. In short, a future that, while imperfect, is still looking bright!
