Peter Milligan Biography

Peter Milligan is one of the most popular and richest Screenwriter who was born on June 24, 1961 in London, England, United Kingdom. Peter Milligan (born 24 June 1961) is a British writer best known for his work in comics as well as film and television.

In 1989 Milligan was alternating between strip titles like “Bad Company”, while she was still writing material for 2000AD including “Hewligan’s Haircut” with artist Jamie Hewlett. Milligan along with the artist Jim McCarthy created the Steve Ditko-inspired “Bix Barton”. It first appeared in strip that was black and white for the first time, “Barton’s Beasts”; the second strip was titled “Carry On Barton” (originally “Carry On Snuffing”). The strip became very well-known and was a precursor to “Devlin Waugh” and others.

The 1990s saw Milligan revamp Steve Ditko’s character Shade, the Changing Man for DC Comics. This proved his most successful American comic, and came at the end of the first wave of “The British Invasion”. With issue No. 33 (March 1993), it became part of the Vertigo imprint. It was cancelled with issue No. 70 (April 1996). A one-off story marking Vertigo’s tenth anniversary was published in 2003.

Milligan and artist Duncan Fegredo created Enigma for Disney Comics’ planned Touchmark imprint. When the Touchmark line was cancelled, the project moved to DC’s newly launched Vertigo line in 1993. Milligan quickly followed this up with The Extremist with artist Ted McKeever. Both titles dealt with taboo subjects for a mainstream publisher, but were applauded by their handling of these subjects.

In 1989, he had his first comic that was published with DC Comics. Skreemer was a mini-series of six issues (May 1989 to October 1989) written by Brett Ewins that was somewhat obscured in the popular “British Invasion” of American comics at the time. A dark post-apocalyptic gangster tale that received praise from critics but didn’t make a lot of sales. Milligan would soon become an established writer for DC and was also developing his personal comics from his native United Kingdom in comics such as 2000 AD, and its spin-offs Crisis as well as Revolver.

The Skin (art created by Brendan McCarthy) was the tale of a young thalidomide skinhead from the 1970s in London and his efforts to manage his condition and the world generally. The strip was to be published the issue of Crisis in 1990, but publisher Fleetway were worried about the controversial subject matter and also worried about the explicit language employed in the tale. The printers decided not to print the strip, citing graphics and the controversial topic as the reason. The story was awaited until it was eventually published as graphic book by Tundra Press to little controversy.

In parallel, Milligan, Ewins and Brendan McCarthy had been working on an anthology called Strange Days for Eclipse Comics. Strange Days featured three strips, “Paradax”, “Freakwave” as well as “Johnny Nemo”. Milligan, McCarthy and Ewins created three issues of the psychedelic comic. it wasn’t a big selling comic, but it gained an unreliable, small readership. The most well- known strip, “Johnny Nemo”, was its own comic and the more wackier “Paradax” had a two-issue series that was published through Vortex Comics in 1987.

Milligan succeeded Grant Morrison on Animal Man for a six-issue run in 1990–1991, and became the regular writer of Batman in Detective Comics in the same year. During an editorial meeting, Milligan presented the idea that led to the creation of Azrael, who became Batman during the “Knightfall” crossover.
