Who I Am And Where I Am (April 2010)
My name's Warren Ellis. I write comics, graphic novels, journalism and anything else that people pay money for.

What's particularly annoying is that I'd blocked out today to sit down and have a good think about What's Next....

Post-Dead
Last night – technically, this morning, around 4am – I finally put my end of the sprawling Marvel Anime project to bed. All four series are now in the hands of other people, to rewrite and expand and animate.
