Mark Millar

Millar was born on 24 December 1969Brissenden, Rachelle (Editor) (May 2000). "Voice of Authority", The Authority, p 23. WildStorm/DC Comics (La Jolla, California). in Coatbridge, Scotland. He spent the first half of his life in the town's Townhead area and attended St. Ambrose High School.{{cite web|url=http://www.acadvertiser.co.uk/lanarkshire-news/local-news/monklands-news/2011/08/24/mark-millar-opens-coatbridge-superhero-archway-65864-29288643|title=Mark Millar opens Coatbridge superhero archway|first=Robert|last=Mitchell|date=24 August 2011|newspaper=Airdrie & Coatbridge Advertiser|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120627153455/http://www.acadvertiser.co.uk/lanarkshire-news/local-news/monklands-news/2011/08/24/mark-millar-opens-coatbridge-superhero-archway-65864-29288643/|archive-date=27 June 2012}}

Millar has four older brothers,"The Third Degree: Mark Millar". Jupiter's Legacy #1 (April 2013). p. 27 Image Comics.{{cite web|url=http://www.scotsman.com/news/mark-millar-s-graphic-novels-really-are-graphic-but-the-coatbridge-boy-behind-wanted-and-new-teen-film-kick-ass-is-suprisingly-mild-mannered-1-472735|title= Mark Millar's graphic novels really are graphic but the Coatbridge boy behind Wanted and new teen film Kick-Ass is surprisingly mild-mannered|date= 13 December 2009|newspaper=The Scotsman|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140209024821/http://www.scotsman.com/news/mark-millar-s-graphic-novels-really-are-graphic-but-the-coatbridge-boy-behind-wanted-and-new-teen-film-kick-ass-is-suprisingly-mild-mannered-1-472735|archive-date=9 February 2014 |url-status=live}} and one older sister, who are 22, 20, 18, 16 and 14 years older than him, respectively. He was first introduced to comic books at age 4 by his brother Bobby, who at the time was attending university and, as of 2010, worked at a special needs school.{{Cite comic|writer=Millar, Millar|artist=McNiven, Steve|story=|title=Nemesis|issue=1|date=May 2010|publisher=Marvel Comics|page= 25}} The first comics that Millar read were the seminal The Amazing Spider-Man #121, which featured the death of Gwen Stacy, and a Superman book purchased by Bobby that day. Millar's interest in the medium was further cemented with the black-and-white reprints of other comics that his brothers purchased for him, which he enjoyed so much that he drew a spider web across his face with an indelible marker that his parents were unable to scrub off in time for his First Communion photo a week later.

In the mid-late 1970s, Millar frequently appeared as a guest on the long-running Scottish kids TV programme Glen Michael's Cartoon Cavalcade, which he was a regular fan of at the time. On one occasion, he was invited onto the show to talk about the history of comics and, in a 2010 interview with the Scottish newspaper Daily Record, Millar has stated that Glen Michael's TV programme was where he first discovered superheroes.{{cite web | url=https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/entertainment/celebrity/cartoon-cavalcade-legend-glen-michaels-1053904 | title=Cartoon Cavalcade legend Glen Michael's cameo role is cut from new movie Kick-Ass | date=22 March 2010 }}

Millar's mother died of a heart attack at age 64, when Millar was 14, and his father died four years later, aged 65. Although Millar enjoyed drawing comics, he was not permitted to go to art school because his family frowned upon such endeavours as a waste of time for the academic Millar, who studied subjects like chemistry, physics and advanced maths. He initially planned to be a doctor, and subsequently decided that becoming an economist would be a viable alternate plan, but later decided that he "couldn't quite hack it" in that occupation. He attended Glasgow University to study politics and economics, but dropped out after his father's death left him without the money to pay his living expenses.

Millar was first inspired to become a comic book creator after meeting Alan Moore at a con in the mid-1980s.{{cite web |first=Tim |last=Walker |url=http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/features/mark-millar--a-new-kind-of-costume-drama-1903831.html |title=Mark Millar – A new kind of costume drama |newspaper=The Independent |date=19 February 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100222174809/http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/features/mark-millar--a-new-kind-of-costume-drama-1903831.html |archive-date=22 February 2010 |url-status=live }}{{cite tweet |first=Mark |last=Millar |user=mrmarkmillar |number=1197903842958094338 |date=22 November 2019 |title=I met Alan Moore at a con when I was 13 and he talked to me for a whole hour |link= |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200730171631/https://twitter.com/mrmarkmillar/status/1197903842958094338 |archive-date=30 July 2020 }} Years later, when an 18-year-old Millar interviewed Scottish comic book writer Grant Morrison for a fanzine, he told Morrison that he wanted to create comics as both a writer and an artist. Morrison, who then-recently returned to comics after spending most of the decade touring with their band The Mixers and had limited experience with both writing and drawing stories earlier in their career, suggested that Millar focus on one of those career paths, as it was very hard to be successful at both, which Millar cites as the best advice he has ever received.{{cite web |first=Steven |last=Younis |url=https://www.supermanhomepage.com/comics/interviews/interviews-intro.php?topic=c-interview_millar |title=Exclusive Mark Millar Interview (4/1999) |publisher=Superman Homepage |date=27 April 1999 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20011121213043/https://www.supermanhomepage.com/comics/interviews/interviews-intro.php?topic=c-interview_millar |archive-date=21 November 2001 }} Soon after, Millar sold his first script, Saviour, to an independent Leicester-based publisher Trident. Illustrated by Daniel Vallely, Morrison's former bandmate in The Mixers and, earlier, The Fauves,{{Cite web|title=Daniel Vallely|url=https://www.lambiek.net/artists/v/vallely_daniel.htm

|access-date=2023-01-10|language=en}} Saviour provided a mix of religious themes, satire and superhero action that quickly brought Millar to the attention of the wider British comics industry and resulted in several script commissions for the long-running anthology 2000 AD and its sister title Crisis.{{cite web |first=Barb |last=Lien-Cooper |url=http://www.sequentialtart.com/archive/aug00/millar.shtml |title=Speaking with the Authority |publisher=Sequential Tart |date=August 2000 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20010306104021/http://www.sequentialtart.com/archive/aug00/millar.shtml |archive-date=6 March 2001 |url-status=live }}

In 1992, Trident's owner Neptune Distribution went bankrupt,"Newswatch: Geppi Buys Baltimore," The Comics Journal #174 (Feb. 1995), p. 29. leaving both Saviour and The Shadowmen, Millar's second series at the publisher, unfinished. By that time, Millar already became a semi-regular contributor to 2000AD and its adjacent titles, and his output included several Robo-Hunter serials, a six-part prison story "Insiders" for Crisis, a Judge Dredd spin-off series Red Razors, as well as numerous newspaper strips starring Dredd himself for Daily Star. The following year, Millar, Morrison and writer John Smith were given editorial reins over 2000AD for an eight-week run titled "The Summer Offensive".{{cite web |first=Al |last=Ewing |author-link=Al Ewing |url=https://forums.2000ad.com/index.php?topic=3543.0 |title=Olde Summer Offensive – Classic Or Dud? |publisher=2000 AD Forum |date=19 December 2002 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220723132856/https://forums.2000ad.com/index.php?topic=3543.0 |archive-date=23 July 2022 |url-status=live }} The controversial initiative resulted, among other things, in the first major story co-written by Millar and Morrison, Big Dave.{{cite book|last= Holder|first=Geoff|author-link=Geoff Holder|title=The Little Book of Glasgow|publisher=The History Press|date=October 2011|location=Stroud, United Kingdom|isbn=978-0-7524-6004-8|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=jwA7AwAAQBAJ&q=bigdave%2Ccontroversy%2CMark&pg=PT112}}

In 1994, Millar crossed over to the American comic book industry, taking over the long-running series Swamp Thing, published under DC Comics' Vertigo imprint. The first four issues of his run were again co-written with Morrison, who, according to Millar, "came on board <...> to make sure that DC selected me above anyone else pitching for the gig". Although Millar's further work on Swamp Thing brought some critical acclaim to the ailing title, the book's sales were still low enough to warrant cancellation by the publisher. For the next few years, Millar continued to write sporadically for 2000AD and various American publishers, often co-scripting the stories with Morrison, with whom he shares the writing credit on the mini-series Skrull Kill Krew for Marvel, a short run on Vampirella for Harris, a year-long run on The Flash as well as Aztek: The Ultimate Man for DC.{{cite book|last1=Manning|first1= Matthew K. |editor-last=Dolan |editor-first=Hannah |chapter=1990s|title = DC Comics Year By Year A Visual Chronicle|publisher=Dorling Kindersley|year=2010|location= London, United Kingdom|isbn= 978-0-7566-6742-9|page= 275|quote = In April [1996], writers Grant Morrison and Mark Millar introduced Aztek in a self-titled ongoing series that ran for a mere ten brilliant issues.}}{{cite web |first=The Beast |last=Must Die |url=http://mindlessones.com/2008/07/08/whatever-happened-to-the-ultimate-man-morrison-and-millars-aztek/ |title=Whatever happened to the Ultimate Man? – Morrison and Millar's AZTEK |publisher=Mindless Ones |date=8 July 2008 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080714073314/http://mindlessones.com/2008/07/08/whatever-happened-to-the-ultimate-man-morrison-and-millars-aztek/ |archive-date=14 July 2008 |url-status=live }}

Several of Millar's unrealized projects of this period include a revamp of Marvel's 2099 imprint{{cite web |first=Brian |last=Cronin |url=http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2006/09/07/comic-book-urban-legends-revealed-67/ |title=Comic Book Urban Legends Revealed #67 |publisher=Comic Book Resources |date=7 September 2006 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20061030045452/http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2006/09/07/comic-book-urban-legends-revealed-67/ |archive-date=30 October 2006 }} and an "end-of-the-world" storyline for Marvel Tales,{{cite web |first=Brian |last=Cronin |url=http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2006/11/2/comic-book-urban-legends-revealed-75/ |title=Comic Book Urban Legends Revealed #75 |publisher=Comic Book Resources |date=2 November 2006 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070104151921/http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2006/11/2/comic-book-urban-legends-revealed-75/ |archive-date=4 January 2007 }} both co-created with Grant Morrison. In late 1998, Millar and Morrison, along with Mark Waid and Tom Peyer, developed an extensive proposal for the Superman titles that was scheduled to launch in January 2000.{{cite web |first=Brian |last=Cronin |url=http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2009/02/12/comic-book-legends-revealed-194/ |title=Comic Book Legends Revealed #194 |publisher=Comic Book Resources |date=12 February 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090214151602/http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2009/02/12/comic-book-legends-revealed-194/ |archive-date=14 February 2009 }} The proposal was greenlit, and the team's tenure as collaborative writers was scheduled to begin with upcoming editor Eddie Berganza's first issue. Upon returining from his vacation, then-current DC editor Mike Carlin was shocked to discover that big changes were being implemented to Superman without his knowledge and vetoed the project.{{cite web |first=David |last=Mann |url=https://aiptcomics.com/2020/06/25/superman-2000-grant-morrison-dc-comics/ |title=Revisiting what never was with the "Superman 2000" proposal |publisher=Adventures in Poor Taste |date=25 June 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200629102046/https://aiptcomics.com/2020/06/25/superman-2000-grant-morrison-dc-comics/ |archive-date=29 June 2020 |url-status=live }}{{cite web |first=Steven |last=Younis |url=https://www.supermanhomepage.com/comics/interviews/interviews-intro.php?topic=c-interview_millar2 |title=Exclusive Mark Millar Interview (11/1999) |publisher=Superman Homepage |date=25 November 1999 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20020209185151/https://www.supermanhomepage.com/comics/interviews/interviews-intro.php?topic=c-interview_millar2 |archive-date=9 February 2002 }} In 1999, Millar also developed pitches for Phantom Stranger and Secret Society of Super-Villains{{cite web |first=Brian |last=Cronin |url=http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2010/07/22/comic-book-legends-revealed-270/ |title=Comic Book Legends Revealed #270 |publisher=Comic Book Resources |date=22 July 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100724203205/http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2010/07/22/comic-book-legends-revealed-270/ |archive-date=24 July 2010 }} as well as a revamp of his debut series Saviour.{{cite web |first=Julian |last=Darius |url=http://continuitypages.com/authority14.htm |title=INTRA/VIEWs: Mark Millar |publisher=The Continuity Pages |date=4 March 2002 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20021107153014/http://continuitypages.com/authority14.htm |archive-date=7 November 2002 }}

In the late 1990s, Millar made the first attempt to branch out from comics into screenwriting with a vampire-themed black comedy-drama Sikeside.{{cite web |first=Beau |last=Yarbrough |url=http://www.comicbookresources.com/columns/index.cgi?column=comicwire&article=291 |title=MARK MILLAR LOOKS FORWARD TO 2000 |publisher=Comic Book Resources |date=2 September 1999 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060625202359/http://www.comicbookresources.com/columns/index.cgi?column=comicwire&article=291 |archive-date=25 June 2006 }} The script was eventually picked up by Channel 4 with Millar as both writer and director, and, although it was initially written as a TV movie, the production company asked Millar to develop it into a six-episode series instead.{{cite web |first=Warren |last=Ellis |author-link=Warren Ellis |url=http://www.comicbookresources.com/columns/index.cgi?column=cia&article=225 |title=Come In Alone: Issue #12 |publisher=Comic Book Resources |date=18 February 2000 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20010422073902/http://www.comicbookresources.com/columns/index.cgi?column=cia&article=225 |archive-date=22 April 2001 }} Described as "Buffy meets Trainspotting" and planned to be filmed in Millar's hometown of Coatbridge,{{cite web |first=James |last=MacGregor |url=http://www.netribution.co.uk/news/north/back_news/exposure511/index.html |title=Ch 4 Starts Vampire Outbreak In Coatbridge |publisher=Netribution |date=26 January 2001 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20020317163835/http://www.netribution.co.uk/news/north/back_news/exposure511/index.html |archive-date=17 March 2002 |url-status=live }} Sikeside was ultimately cancelled during pre-production. In a 2010 interview, Millar mentioned that he has sold the rights to the script to producer Angus Lamont who wanted to turn it into a film for a theatrical release.{{cite web |first=Matt |last=McAllister |url=http://totalscifionline.com/interviews/4652-mark-millar-just-for-kicks |title= Mark Millar: Just for Kicks |publisher=Total Sci-Fi Online |date=17 February 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101006230014/http://totalscifionline.com/interviews/4652-mark-millar-just-for-kicks |archive-date=6 October 2010 }}

Millar started gaining notice at DC Comics for his work on the all-ages comic book series Superman Adventures, which featured stories set in the continuity of Superman: The Animated Series. Millar, a self-proclaimed Superman fan,{{cite web |first=Mark |last=Millar |url=http://www.comicbookresources.com/columns/index.cgi?column=thecolumn&article=1376 |title=IS SUPERMAN FUCKED? |work=Comic Book Resources |date=26 July 2002 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20020919212511/http://www.comicbookresources.com/columns/index.cgi?column=thecolumn&article=1376 |archive-date=19 September 2002 }} stayed on the title for two years and received two Eisner Award nominations{{cite web |url= http://www.hahnlibrary.net/comics/awards/eisner00.php|title= 2000 Will Eisner Comic Industry Award Nominees and Winners|publisher= Hahn Library Comic Book Awards Almanac|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20130921054525/http://www.hahnlibrary.net/comics/awards/eisner00.php|archive-date= 21 September 2013|url-status= live|access-date= 30 July 2013}} while penning one-off stories featuring the version of the character from the mainline DC Universe. Millar's best known Superman story, the three-issue Elseworlds mini-series Superman: Red Son, was first announced in 1998,{{cite web |first=Beau |last=Yarbrough |url=http://www.comicbookresources.com/comicwire/0798/cw_070698.shtml |title=MILLAR'S 'RED SON' RISES IN 1999 |publisher=Comic Book Resources |date=6 July 1998 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/19990508044937/http://www.comicbookresources.com/comicwire/0798/cw_070698.shtml |archive-date=8 May 1999 }} even though Millar finished most of the script two-year prior. As the series' original artist Dave Johnson fell behind the schedule, Millar opposed the idea of using other artists for the remaining pages. DC eventually brought in artist Kilian Plunkett to complete the book in 2002.{{cite web |first=Steven |last=Younis |url=https://www.supermanhomepage.com/comics/interviews/interviews-intro.php?topic=c-interview_millar3 |title=Exclusive Mark Millar Interview (3/2003) |publisher=Superman Homepage |date=10 March 2003 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030418051034/https://www.supermanhomepage.com/comics/interviews/interviews-intro.php?topic=c-interview_millar3 |archive-date=18 April 2003 }} Red Son, which Millar first came up with as a child after reading Superman #300, was published the following year and later adapted into an animated film of the same name.

In 2006, after renewing his exclusive contract with Marvel for two more years, Millar launched the most well-known and best-selling work of his career, the 7-issue mini-series Civil War with artist Steve McNiven that acted as the centrepiece of the company-wide crossover storyline of the same name.Manning "2000s" in Gilbert (2008), p. 332: "Writer Mark Millar and artist Steve McNiven unleashed Civil War on the public, an epic seven-issue limited series that sparked some of the most heated fan debate in the history of Marvel Comics." The story revolved around the passing of the Superhuman Registration Act in response to the death and destruction unintentionally caused by superheroes on a regular basis and the resultant schism in the superheroic community, with Captain America and Iron Man taking opposing sides of the debacle.{{cite web |first= |last= |url=http://www.newsarama.com/marvelnew/CivilWar/millar_final.html |title=MARK MILLAR's CIVIL WAR POST-GAME SHOW |work=Newsarama |date=26 February 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070228095643/http://www.newsarama.com/marvelnew/CivilWar/millar_final.html |archive-date=28 February 2007 }} The storyline had lasting impact on the fictional Marvel Universe{{cite web |first=Evan |last=Valentine |url=http://collider.com/marvel-civil-war-story/ |title=What Is Marvel's Civil War?

Sometime around 2004, Millar and Morrison seemingly cut all communication and never interacted in public again, which, according to Morrison, happened because Millar wanted to break away from the image of Morrison's protégé after the success he had with The Authority and Ultimate X-Men.{{cite web |first=Brian |last=Hiatt |url=http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/grant-morrison-on-the-death-of-comics-20110822 |title=Grant Morrison on the Death of Comics |magazine=Rolling Stone |date=22 August 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110919015746/http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/grant-morrison-on-the-death-of-comics-20110822 |archive-date=19 September 2011 |url-status=live }} When asked about the state of their relationship in a 2011 interview, Morrison responded thus, "I wish him well but, no, there is no good feeling between myself and Mark Millar for many reasons most of which are he destroyed my faith in human fucking nature."{{cite web |first=Gary |last=Lactus |url=http://mindlessones.com/2011/06/28/supergodcast/ |title=Grant Morrison interview: Supergodcast! |publisher=Mindless Ones |date=28 June 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110630184322/http://mindlessones.com/2011/06/28/supergodcast/ |archive-date=30 June 2011 |url-status=live }}

In August 2011, Millar appeared in his native Coatbridge to unveil a superhero-themed steel archway beside the Monkland Canal, created by sculptor Andy Scott with the help from the students at St. Ambrose High School, Millar's alma mater.

Speaking about his political views, Millar has described himself thus, "I regard myself as traditionally left of centre and progressive, a Eurosceptic in the Bennite mould, and the policies espoused by the coalition formed under the Yes umbrella are the closest to my own particular ideology."{{cite web|url=https://bleedingcool.com/comics/mark-millar-appears-to-change-his-mind-on-scottish-independence/|author=Johnston, Rich|publisher=Bleeding Cool|title=Has Mark Millar Changed His Mind On Scottish Independence?|date=3 September 2014|access-date=5 October 2021|archive-date=21 September 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200921033137/https://bleedingcool.com/comics/mark-millar-appears-to-change-his-mind-on-scottish-independence/}}
