Grant Morrison's THE FILTH

Grant Morrison's THE FILTH has a home. Morrison is returning to DC Comics' Vertigo imprint with the 13-issue series, illustrated by Chris Weston and Gary Erskine.

Here's how DC describes the series, which is set to launch in the spring:

"THE FILTH is a twisted super-thriller in which Morrison takes the reader on a psychedelic roller coaster ride through a maelstrom of extra-dimensional espionage, disease pathology, sex and violence, prosthetically-equipped dolphins, indolent nano-technology, co-opted reality and the notion of identity itself. Loaded with febrile imagery and Byzantine plot twists, THE FILTH is a mind-wrenching journey where nothing is exactly what it seems."

"Grant is one of the most imaginative and exciting storytellers in comics," says Karen Berger, Vertigo executive editor. "With THE FILTH, he's doing what he does best - taking us on a wild trip through a world that has to be experienced to be believed, and Chris's art is at its most intricate, innovative and dazzling."

"It's bigger, wilder, uglier and more heart-rending than the best summer blockbuster movie," says Morrison, whose most recent Vertigo work was THE INVISIBLES. "It's guaranteed to blind the mind's eye and infect the soul forever."
