Grant Morrison Writes ... (Part 6)Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5 | Part 6 | Part 7 | Part 8 [E]veryone�s been asking, Let me ask you, while I�ve got The Invisibles on my mind, how long�is Volume Two planned to last? When will we shift into Volume Three? It will just be 25 issues each. Oh, O.K. So they�re all going to be fairly well-balanced, as far as issue numbers and story lengths. I�m trying to think�I�ve been bouncing around in my list of questions�if there was anything else that I�ve managed to skip. I�probably should go ahead and ask you what�s coming up in The Invisibles,�so you can preview that for us. Sure. I feel like I should say something about 7. Has issue 7come�out? I believe it is. Yeah. Well, issue 7�I�m really pleased about when that one came�out. The hinge of this series is that everyone�s been asking, "Why is it�so violent? Why is it so Preacherified?" [Both laugh.] And you kind of�get the answer in issue 7. That�s a shame, considering how much older than Preacher The Invisibles is. Yeah, but I�m cold. [Laugh.] And Garth�s hot. [A]gain, yeah, I�m really pleased about what it�s going to do. [It�s]�the most violent thing I�ve ever done, but the entire issue is balanced�out with the least violent thing. So it�s getting it out. ... I�m really�pleased with that; [it�s] kind of everything that The Invisibles is�about. From there, we start getting into explaining a lot more stuff. The next�three issues are kind of set simultaneously in 1924, with the Golden Age Invisibles, and� [Laugh.] There�s an idea I�ve been waiting to hear! [Laugh.] Yeah, yeah, and you�re getting it! So there�s�actually�there�s a King Mob from 1924, who�s a different one, and�there�s another bunch of people that we�ve seen a couple of them�already. And it�s gonna be [an] adventure. [O]ur King Mob does some psychic time travel to go back and get involved�in this attempt to be able to see how to bring through alien beings into�Earth in 1924. So he gets kind of caught up in that, and also he ranks�in the present-day story, [where] one of the team kind of betrays�everyone else and walks away, which is a bit of a shock. And then it�s leading into a new big story where we take off on the Boy�character and the fact that his brother was taken away by, you know,�secret government troops and placed in a death camp within the United�States. So it�s kind of the Invisibles finding where this death camp is�at and getting in there and causing trouble. It sounds like that�s going to put you well on the road to wrapping�up Volume Two. Uh, no. Well, sort of, yeah. That would take us well into the second�year of it. |
