Grant first proper comic book series was for 2000AD and was titled Zenith. Imagining what he would get up to if he was a superhero, Grant wrote a personal and affecting superhero story that tapped into the cultural zeitgeist (the first of many occasions hed do so) to create what this writer considers as the first classic of his illustrious and glittering career. Zenith was a product of his times. Robert McDowell was Zenith the son of two 60s-era, hippy-ish, ex-superheroes. Zenith was lazy and reluctant; a spoiled rich kid who really wanted to sing in a rock band rather than fight Lovecraftian evil elder gods (wouldnt we all). The series enjoyed such plot developments and characters as Nazi Scientists, the CIA, Alternate Universes, characters made entirely of thought, multi-dimensional Universes featuring comic book characters of yesteryear, fractal mathematics, and the idea of our Sun being used as an incubator for the offspring of the aforementioned Elder Gods. Never lacking in imagination, Zenith was a spectacular comic book. Morrison's catalogue of modern day classics continueDoom Patrol, The Filth, Flex Mentallo, Arkham Asylum - A Serious House On A Serious Earth...But it doesnt matter in which order to rate Grants body of work, whats important is that you read it and open your mind to a plethora of new and radical ideas. Reading Grants work is like an Ayahuasca trip, its sometimes confronting, sometimes confusing, but its always good for you and you always leave with more than you went in with.
