New X-Men, Vol. 3: New Worlds

grant morrison

His name is Charles Xavier... and he is a mutant. For years, Professor X was widely regarded as an authority on genetic mutation, and an advocate of peaceful relations between man and mutant. The general public was unaware he possessed superhuman powers until the psionically empowered psychopath Cassandra Nova - his twin sister - addressed the global media while in possession of her brother's body and broke his decades-long silence. But in attempting to expose Xavier to his enemies, she unwittingly freed him from his self-imposed exile. In just over a year, writer Grant Morrison has challenged every X-Men reader's expectations, revoking every unwritten "law" of the series. In New X-Men Vol. 3, Morrison takes the mutant heroes to new heights...and new worlds. Collecting New X-Men #127-133 - written by Morrison ( Arkham Asylum, Fantastic 1234) and illustrated by Ethan Van Scriver ( Iron Heights), Igor Kordey (Soldier X), John Paul Leon (Earth X) and Phil Jiminez (Wonder Woman).

About the author

grant morrison

Grant Morrison has been working with DC Comics for twenty five years, after beginning their American comics career with acclaimed runs on ANIMAL MAN and DOOM PATROL. Since then they have written such best-selling series as JLA, BATMAN and New X-Men, as well as such creator-owned works as THE INVISIBLES, SEAGUY, THE FILTH, WE3 and JOE THE BARBARIAN. In addition to expanding the DC Universe through titles ranging from the Eisner Award-winning SEVEN SOLDIERS and ALL-STAR SUPERMAN to the reality-shattering epic of FINAL CRISIS, they have also reinvented the worlds of the Dark Knight Detective in BATMAN AND ROBIN and BATMAN, INCORPORATED and the Man of Steel in The New 52 ACTION COMICS.

In their secret identity, Morrison is a "counterculture" spokesperson, a musician, an award-winning playwright and a chaos magician. They are also the author of the New York Times bestseller Supergods, a groundbreaking psycho-historic mapping of the superhero as a cultural organism. They divide their time between their homes in Los Angeles and Scotland.
