Robbie Morrison

Morrison began his career in 2000 AD's sister title Judge Dredd Megazine, writing various spin-off stories for the titular character, including Shimura, which he co-created with Frank Quitely. Aside from Nikolai Dante, Morrison's work for 2000 AD itself includes Shakara with art by Henry Flint and contributions to various long-running series of short strips such as Tharg's Future Shocks, Vector 13 and Pulp Sci-Fi. In 2002, Morrison made his debut at the Big Two of the American comic book market with an issue of Spider-Man's Tangled Web, drawn by Jim Mahfood. The following year, he launched the second volume of The Authority at Wildstorm following the acclaimed runs by Warren Ellis and Mark Millar, while Morrison's idea of having the titular team take over the world was used as the basis for the company-wide crossover "Coup d'Etat".

In 2011, Morrison wrote the comic book tie-in to the video game Deus Ex: Human Revolution. The following year, he was brought in by Dave Gibbons to work on the motion comic Treatment, developing Gibbons' initial idea into a number of serials. In 2013, publisher Jonathan Cape released Drowntown, the first part of a trilogy of graphic novels with art by Jim Murray. From 2014 to 2017, Morrison wrote the ongoing Doctor Who series featuring the adventures of the Twelfth Doctor for Titan Comics. In addition to his work as a writer, Morrison has acted as a consultant for the Scottish Arts Council, promoting the medium of comics. In a 2005 interview in Judge Dredd Megazine, he stated that he is interested in creating work that would revive genres other than science, fantasy and superhero fiction.

In 2021, Morrison published his first prose novel, Edge of the Grave, which earned him the Bloody Scotland Debut Prize for Crime Novel. The second book in the Inspector Jimmy Dreghorn series, Cast a Cold Eye, was released in March 2023.
