Грант Морисон родился в Глазго, Шотландия в 1960 году. Первыми опубликоваными писательскими работами Моррисона стали короткие рассказы Gideon Stargrave о одноимённом персонаже для журнала Near Myths в 1978 году, одни из первых альтернативных комикс-работ в Великобритании. Его работы появились в четырёх из пяти выпусков Near Myths, после чего он стал думать о профессиональной работе в комикс-индустрии и был принят Near Myths. Во время работы он занимался созданием еженедельного комикса Captain Clyde о безработном супергерое из Глазго.
Следующим крупным проектом Моррисона станет Multiversity — серия комиксов из восьми уан-шотов, действие которых происходит в 52 Мультивселенной. Моррисон работает на книгой о супергероях Supergods: Our World in the Age of the Superhero, публикация которой в издательстве Random House, Spiegel & Grau планируется в Великобритании летом 2011 года. Кроме книг, Моррисон занят в работе над научно-фантастическим сериалом «Bonnyroad» для BBC вместе с режиссером Полом МакГиганом и Стивеном Фраем, а так же работает над сценарием к фильму «Sinatoro» режиссёра Адама Мортимера, релиз которого намечен на 2012 год. Ранее заявленные проекты, например Warcop, The New Bible и финальная часть трилогии Seaguy, которые были анонсированы в 2008 году на New York Comic-Con, еще не вышли в свет и находятся в стадии написания.
