Mark Millar

Millar at the [[Big Apple Comic Con|Big Apple Convention]] in Manhattan, 2 October 2010 Mark Millar (; born 24 December 1969) is a Scottish comic book writer who first came to prominence with a run on the superhero series ''The Authority'', published by DC Comics' Wildstorm imprint. Millar has written extensively for Marvel Comics, including runs on ''The Ultimates'', which has been called "the comic book of the decade" by ''Time'' magazine and described as a major inspiration for the 2012 film ''The Avengers'' by its screenwriter Zak Penn, ''X-Men'', ''Fantastic Four'' and ''Avengers'' for Marvel's Ultimate imprint, as well as ''Marvel Knights Spider-Man'' and ''Wolverine''. In 2006, Millar wrote the ''Civil War'' mini-series that served as the centrepiece for the eponymous company-wide crossover storyline and later inspired the Marvel Studios film ''Captain America: Civil War''. The "Old Man Logan" storyline, published as part of Millar's run on ''Wolverine'', served as the inspiration for the 2017 film ''Logan''.

Millar has written numerous creator-owned series which have been published under the unified Millarworld label, including ''Wanted'' with J. G. Jones, ''Kick-Ass'' with John Romita, Jr., ''Nemesis'' with Steve McNiven, ''Superior'' and ''Supercrooks'' with Leinil Francis Yu, ''The Secret Service'' with Dave Gibbons and ''Jupiter's Legacy'' with Frank Quitely. Some of these series have been adapted into live-action and animated series and feature films, such as ''Wanted'', ''Kick-Ass'', ''Kingsman: The Secret Service'', ''Jupiter's Legacy'' and ''Super Crooks''. In 2017, Millarworld was purchased by Netflix with the aim for Millar to continue developing original properties that would later be adapted by the studio into various formats.

In addition to his work as a writer, Millar serves as an executive producer on all film and television adaptations of his comics. Between 2012 and 2016, he was employed by 20th Century Fox as a creative consultant for adaptations of Marvel properties.

In 2013, Millar was appointed a Member of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (MBE) for services to film and literature. Provided by Wikipedia
