Early life
Ellis was born in Essex in February 1968. Ellis has stated that the televised broadcast of the Moon landing is his earliest coherent memory.[1] He was a student at the South East Essex Sixth Form College, commonly known as SEEVIC. He contributed comic work to the college magazine, Spike, along with Richard Easter, who also later followed a career in writing.[citation needed]
Before starting his career as a writer, he ran a bookstore, ran a pub, worked in bankruptcy, worked in a record shop, and lifted compost bags for a living.[2]
Career

1999 saw the launch of Planetary, another Wildstorm series by Ellis and John Cassaday, and Ellis's short run on the DC/Vertigo series Hellblazer.[4] He left that series when DC announced, following the Columbine High School massacre, that it would not publish "Shoot", a Hellblazer story about school shootings, although the story had been written and illustrated prior to the Columbine massacre.[5][6] Planetary concluded in October 2009 with the release of issue 27.
Return to superhero titles
Ellis also returned to Marvel Comics as part of the company's "
In 2003 Ellis started
In 2004 Ellis came back to mainstream superhero comics. He took over Ultimate Fantastic Four and Iron Man for Marvel under a temporary exclusive work for hire contract.
Toward the end of 2004 Ellis released the "Apparat Singles Group", which he described as "An imaginary line of comics singles. Four imaginary first issues of imaginary series from an imaginary line of comics, even". The Apparat titles were published by Avatar, but carried only the Apparat logo on their covers.
In 2006 Ellis worked for DC on
In honour of the 20th anniversary of Marvel's New Universe in 2006, Ellis and illustrator Salvador Larroca created a new series that reimagines the New Universe under the title newuniversal. The first issue was released on 6 December 2006.[8]
Ellis continued to work on several projects for different publishers, including Fell (for Image), Desolation Jones (for DC/Wildstorm) and Blackgas and Black Summer (for Avatar Comics).[9] Ellis also wrote an episode of Justice League Unlimited entitled "Dark Heart".
2007–12
Ellis's first prose novel, Crooked Little Vein, was published in mid-2007 by William Morrow (an imprint of HarperCollins).
Ellis has described himself as "a notorious pain in the arse for getting involved in book design".[10] According to a comment made in the first issue of Fell, he has more trade paperbacks in print than anyone else in the American comic industry.
On 29 July 2007 Ellis announced two new projects for Avatar Press: FreakAngels, a free long-form webcomic illustrated by Paul Duffield; and Ignition City, a five-issue miniseries.[11] He also has five other current series with Avatar: Anna Mercury,[12][13] No Hero,[14] along with two long series Doktor Sleepless and Gravel.
The first quarter of 2009 saw the release of G.I. Joe: Resolute, a series of webisodes written by Warren Ellis and later released on DVD in December.
He worked with D'Israeli again in 2010–2011 for a one-off comic, SVK, to be published by BERG, a London consultancy firm. It uses a UV torch to reveal the thoughts of the characters in the story.[15][16]
In 2010, a documentary film on Ellis, Warren Ellis: Captured Ghosts, was announced for 2011 completion. Its co-producer Sequart Organization also plans on publishing, in 2011, three books studying Ellis's work: on Planetary, on Transmetropolitan, and on Ellis's overall career. Sequart has dubbed this push "The Year of Ellis."[17]
2013–15: Gun Machine, subsequent Marvel work, and return to Image
Ellis' second novel, hardboiled detective thriller Gun Machine, was released on 3 January 2013 by Mulholland Books.[18] The novel follows a Manhattan detective investigating a murder, which expands into the hunt of a serial killer. Gun Machine hit The New York Times Best Sellers list and received mostly positive reviews.[19][20][21] In June 2013, Ellis announced on his website that he would be ending his relationship with Mulholland Books due to "continuing issues", and cancelling the release of his short story "Dead Pig Collector".[22][23] In July 2013, "Dead Pig Collector" was picked up by Farrar, Straus and Giroux, and published as a digital original.[24][25]
In March 2014, Ellis relaunched Moon Knight for Marvel, with art by Declan Shalvey and colors by Jordie Bellaire.[26] The series received critical acclaimed, and helped establish Moon Knight as a major character in the Marvel Universe.[27][28][29] Ellis ended his run after six issues, after which the series was taken on by writer Brian Wood.[30] Trees, a new creator-owned comics collaboration between Ellis and artist Jason Howard, debuted in May 2014 through Image Comics.[31] The science fiction series explores a world in which aliens have invaded Earth but completely ignored humans.[32] The first story arc concluded in January 2015,[33] and was followed by a second volume, Trees: Two Forests, which ended its run in August 2016.[34] A third volume is planned.
Ellis joined main writer Kelly Sue DeConnick to co-write two issues of her Captain Marvel series in early 2015.[35] In May 2015, Ellis re-teamed with his Moon Knight collaborators Shalvey and Bellaire to publish Injection with Image Comics.[36] The creator-owned science fiction series follows the members of a think tank tasked with improving the future who deal with mistakes made after trying to prevent human innovation from dying off.[37][38] Two volumes of Injection have been released,[39] with a third one expected to begin in 2017.[40]
Ellis launched a new ongoing comics series featuring James Bond in November 2015, published by Dynamite Entertainment in partnership with Ian Fleming Publications, and illustrated by James Masters.[41][42] James Bond depicts the original character from the Ian Fleming novels, as opposed to the one in the films, but is set in present day.[41] The first story arc, "Vargr", was followed in June 2016 with a second arc titled "Eidolon".[43] Ellis stepped down from the series after twelve issues in December 2016, and was succeeded as writer by Benjamin Percy.[43] As part of Marvel's All-New All-Different relaunch, Ellis wrote the series Karnak, following the eponymous Inhuman character.[44] The series debuted in October 2015 with art by Gerardo Zaffino to positive reviews.[45][46] Karnak suffered several delays[47][48] which resulted in Zaffino being replaced by Roland Boschi.[49] The series ended its six-issue run in February 2017.[50]
2016–present: Normal and WildStorm revival
Normal, Ellis' new novella, was serialized as four digital installments beginning in July 2016.[51][52] It was published as a single volume by Farrar, Straus and Giroux in November 2016.[53] The near-future thriller follows the residents of an asylum for futurists as they investigate a disappearance.[54] The novella received a mostly positive reception, with reviewers praising its plot, humor, and commentary on the future.[55][56][57]
In October 2016, Ellis launched Shipwreck, a new six-issue comics mini-series with artist Phil Hester, published by AfterShock Comics.[58] The series follows the survivor of a shipwreck trying to find out what happened after he washes up another world.[59] Though Ellis has left open the possibility of expanding the book past six issues, he said he is focused finishing the story as planned first.[58]
Despite rarely returning to his early work,
Upcoming projects
In 2012, Ellis announced he would publish a non-fiction book, tentatively titled Spirit Tracks, with
Finality, a new webcomic written by Ellis and illustrated by
Unrealized projects
In 2006, Ellis was hired to develop a science fiction television series for AMC titled Dead Channel,[77][78] but the project was put on hiatus.[79] The series followed a television network executive who discovers the existence of aliens and decides to turn the discovery into a reality show.[80] Listener, a near-future science fiction novel, was planned as Ellis' next book after Crooked Little Vein.[81][82] The novel has since been lost and cancelled.[83][84]
Wastelanders, a web-based "end-of-the-world" collaboration director with Joss Whedon, was postponed due to Whedon's work on The Avengers.[85] Ellis and British producer Vivek Tiwary developed an adventure thriller television miniseries title Ascension, with Idris Elba in talks to star,[86] though nothing has come of the project.
Adaptations and nonfiction
Film and television adaptations
Adaptations of Ellis' works have frequently been planned, to limited success. Ellis and
Global Frequency has been at various stages of adaptation since its publication. A television pilot written by John Rogers was produced in 2005,[95] but development ended after it was leaked.[96] Several more attempts to bring the limited series to television include writers Scott Nimerfro in 2009,[97] and Rockne S. O’Bannon in 2014,[98] though none have materialized. Gravel was at one point being developed with Tim Miller attached as director,[99] with Ellis commissioned to write the first draft of the screenplay and serving as executive producer.[100] Black Summer has also been optioned as a feature film.[101] Ellis' comics collaboration with Chris Sprouse, Ocean, has been optioned,[102] and Ryan Condal hired to write a screenplay.[103] Ellis' novel Gun Machine has been set up as a television series first with writer Dario Scardapane at Fox in 2012,[104] and later in 2014 at the now-defunct Xbox Entertainment, with a script by Brett Conrad.[105] In 2016, it was announced that NBCUniversal had optioned the rights to Ellis and Jason Howard's Trees, and would be developing it as a television series with Tom Hardy's production company.[106]
Talks and speaking engagements
In 2013, Ellis spoke at the
Nonfiction and email newsletters
Ellis is a contributor of nonfiction articles and columns to magazines and websites. He has been a columnist for SucideGirls,[107] Reuters,[108] Vice,[109] Wired UK,[110] and Esquire.[111] From 1995 to 1999, he wrote an email list titled From the Desk of, where he wrote about various subjects including the comic industry and his work. From the Desk of was collected in two print volumes by Avatar Press.[112] When technical issues forced that list to shut down in 2001 Ellis started a new email list, Bad Signal, which was described as "anarchy in your mailbox to brighten up your day".[113] Bad Signal was replaced in 2012, two years after its closing, by Machine Vision;[114] Ellis ended Machine Vision alongside his relationship with his publisher Mulholland Books a year later.[115] Since 2013, Ellis has been writing the weekly email newsletter Orbital Operations,[116] which features work updates, and thoughts on books, comics, and current events.[117] As of late 2015, Orbital Operations had 13,000 subscribers.[118]
In 2007, Ellis launched the now-defunct message board Whitechapel as a companion to his webcomic FreakAngels,[119] though it rapidly evolved into his internet home.[120] He is frequently referred to as "The Boss", "Stalin", "The Love Swami" or "Internet Jesus" on these forums.[121] Ellis maintains a blog at his personal website, thought it is rarely updated. Since 2014, he writes regularly at Morning.Computer, where he posts morning thoughts.[122][123] In 2015, Ellis published Cunning Plans, an ebook collection of talks he gave at technology and futurism conferences.[118]
