I would love it (tho he's already stated he has no interest) I find almost all of his work to be fairly straight forward, especially his super hero work.
His Batman run was fantastic, IMO. It really had me dying to see what would happen next, month to month.
Yes, he has a out of left field approach at times. I think it works more often than not.
And we don't know how his Spider-man take would be, since it never came to fruition. It could've been great.
Bump, slot seems to be using this Morrison factor to the Amazing Title now.
I'd pair him with Marcos Martin. Martin is the best Spidey artist we've seen in years and if Morrison wants to tackle a Ditko-era Spidey then Martin is the man.
If he ever writes Spider-Man, I'd like it if the story were out of continuity just as All-Star Superman was. After all Morrison believes the Lee-Ditko run is very hard to surpass so if we'd like to see Morrison's potential with Spidey realised the story shouldn't be shackled by continuity.
I'd still love to see a maxi-series written by Morrison, drawn by Frank Quitely or Olivier Coipel. Even a prose novel would be intriguing.
Yeah, like Montressor said I like Grant but I'm not sure I'd like him on ASM. Agreed that I'd be very interested in his take on F4.
I like G.M. but I can see why people might be hesitant to see him on a Spidey title.
Buuuuut...
Maybe he could do a cool Chameleon story?
Ooooor... a cool Mysterio story?
I tend to like weird takes anyway - I love Spider-Man: Fever, for example - so maybe I'm biased in that way.
-Pav, who jusST REALIZED THAT ALL ALONG IT'S BEEN GRANT MORRISON WHO NEEDS TO WRITE THE STEGRON/SWARM TEAM-UP WE'RE ALL DYING FOR...
You were Spider-Man then. You and Peter had agreed on it. But he came back right when you started feeling comfortable.
You know what it means when he comes back.

Ha!
I think the comic book Spider-Man needs Morrison more than we realize.
As a huge fan of the Ditko Spidey ... I'm really glad Morrison never got his mitts on him.
I'd be fine with Morrison doing a couple of one-shot tales here and there, perhaps in a "Webspinners" or "Tangled Web"-type anthology series focusing on the villains, but after the complete cluster that was his "New X-Men" run (particularly the latter portion), I can't say I trust him to write Spider-Man on a regular basis.
His work with Batman, Superman and Captain Marvel (Shazam) was decent, but generally he works best with characters of his own creation as opposed to established characters. He just can't resist tinkering to the point at which they become almost unrecognizable.

It's WEIRD, and very dark, but it's not bad.
