“No creator understands and utilizes this aspect of the DC Universe or makes it work to his advantage better than writer Grant Morrison. Say what you will about some of his missteps (Final Crisis anyone?). More than anyone else, he understands that utilizing that epic grandness is the key to understanding DC.”—NERDIST

“Grant Morrison’s The Multiversity is everything that fans have been patiently waiting for.”—IGN

“Morrison’s The Multiversity has been an immensely entertaining miniseries, giving him the opportunity to explore different elements of superhero comics through stylized one-shots set on different worlds in DC’s multiverse.”—A.V. CLUB/THE ONION

“The latest collaboration between writer Grant Morrison and artist Frank Quitely, a pairing that consistently puts out career-defining work.”—ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY
