  Mark Millar
Millar got his professional start in comics in the late 80s and early 90s in the pages of venerable British comic anthology 2000 AD, and American independent comic The Savior.
Millar subsequently made his mark in the early to mid 90s at DC Comics with runs on titles such as Swamp Thing and The Flash, both alone and in collaboration with Grant Morrison.
Millar continued this brand of success as one of the primary architects of Marvel's Ultimate line with his work on The Ultimates and Ultimate X-Men presenting a compelling and hard-edged look at Marvel's popular stable of heroes.

 Mark Millar, comic-book hero | Features | The First Post
The film is based upon a wickedly amoral contemporary story by Scotsman Mark Millar, the chief writer for Marvel Comics and the enfant terrible of the graphic novel.
Millar enjoys a huge and fanatical fanbase - his previous series The Ultimates sold a total of 4m copies - which means Wanted may be his first film but it will not be his last.
Millar's profile - he has a bevy of celebrity friends including Michael Moore and Samuel L Jackson, who wrote the foreword for The Ultimates – and his role as the leading light of comic book counterculture has enabled him to break out of the ghetto.

 Mark Millar Interview » PopCultureShock
Mark Millar is a WANTED man. At the turn of the century, like Jeff Hostetler did with the 1990 New York Giants, he came off the bench to write The Authority after Warren Ellis' departure and guided it all the way to the Superbowl.
Millar's follow-up to The Authority had to be something big.
Millar first broke onto the US scene with Legends of the Dark Knight #79 under the tutelage of the late great Archie Goodwin who saw something in him during the comic implosion of the mid-1990's.

His fans praise him for clever, provocative and edgy plots, which often have a social undercurrent, while his detractors point to an overuse of shock tactics and a tendency towards polemicism.

 Amazon.com: Absolute Authority, The: Volume two: Mark Millar: Books
Millar is a satirist at heart, but he's sentimental, too - his glib, bloody version of a superhero comic is, in some ways, about a kind of power that doesn't exist (and about the tragedy that superheroes really don't exist after all).
His rendering of Millar's gory, real-world battle scenes aren't for the squeamish, but are truly affecting.
Mark Millar does wonders following Ellis's run and manages to give us in inside look at the destructive nature and price that heroes have to pay in order to save the world.

Millar said that, while visiting the filming location, he got to sunbathe with Angelina Jolie (who played The Fox) and said that she’s quite attractive.
Purists should take heart, as Millar said that the movie version of the story is definitely rated R. He said you have to make this extremely violent, with lots of swearing and sex scenes.
They shoot things from the same angle from the panels in the comics, something that Millar said was very freaky to see as the writer.
