We love our superheroes because they refuse to give up on us. We can analyse them out of existence, kill them, ban them, mock them, and still they return, patiently reminding us of who we are and what we wish we could be.
- Grant Morrison, Supergods: What Masked Vigilantes, Miraculous Mutants, and a Sun God from Smallville Can Teach Us About Being Human
Morrison’s book is an excellent read for all comic book fans. Morrison has been one of the most influential comic book writers of modern times. He’s worked on many iconic superheroes in his time. His writings are philosophical, humane, and slyly counter-cultural.
