In addition to his work as a writer, Millar serves as an executive producer on all film and television adaptations of his comics. Between 2012 and 2016, he was employed by [[20th Century Fox]] as a creative consultant for adaptations of his Marvel comic series ''Kick-Ass'' and ''The Secret Service'' (''Kingsman''). In 2013, Millar was appointed a [[Member of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire]] (MBE) for services to film and literature. ==Early life== Millar was born on 24 December 1969<ref>Brissenden, Rachelle (Editor) (May 2000).

On one occasion, he was invited onto the show to talk about the history of comics and, in a 2010 interview with the Scottish newspaper ''[[Daily Record (Scotland)|Daily Record]]'', Millar has stated that Glen Michael's TV programme was where he first discovered superheroes.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/entertainment/celebrity/cartoon-cavalcade-legend-glen-michaels-1053904 | title=Cartoon Cavalcade legend Glen Michael's cameo role is cut from new movie Kick-Ass | date=22 March 2010 }}</ref> Millar's mother died of a heart attack at age 64, when Millar was 14, and his father died four years later, aged 65.<ref name=TheScotsman/> Although Millar enjoyed drawing comics, he was not permitted to go to art school because his family frowned upon such endeavours as a waste of time for the academic Millar, who studied subjects like chemistry, physics and advanced maths. He initially planned to be a doctor, and subsequently decided that becoming an economist would be a viable alternate plan, but later decided that he "couldn't quite hack it" in that occupation.<ref name=JupitersLegacy1/> He attended [[Glasgow University]] to study politics and economics, but dropped out after his father's death left him without the money to pay his living expenses.<ref name=TheScotsman/> ==Career== ===1980sβ1990s work=== Millar was first inspired to become a comic book creator after meeting [[Alan Moore]] at a [[comic book convention|con]] in the mid-1980s.<ref name=Indie>{{cite web |first=Tim |last=Walker |url=http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/features/mark-millar--a-new-kind-of-costume-drama-1903831.html |title=Mark Millar β A new kind of costume drama |newspaper=[[The Independent]] |date=19 February 2010 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100222174809/http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/features/mark-millar--a-new-kind-of-costume-drama-1903831.html |archive-date=22 February 2010 |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{cite tweet |first=Mark |last=Millar |user=mrmarkmillar |number=1197903842958094338 |date=22 November 2019 |title=I met Alan Moore at a con when I was 13 and he talked to me for a whole hour |link= |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200730171631/https://twitter.com/mrmarkmillar/status/1197903842958094338 |archive-date=30 July 2020 }}</ref> Years later, when an 18-year-old Millar interviewed Scottish comic book writer [[Grant Morrison]] for a fanzine, he told Morrison that he wanted to create comics as both a writer and an artist. Morrison, who then-recently returned to comics after spending most of the decade touring with their band [[The Mixers]] and had limited experience with both writing and drawing stories earlier in their career, suggested that Millar focus on one of those career paths, as it was very hard to be successful at both, which Millar cites as the best advice he has ever received.<ref name=homepage1>{{cite web |first=Steven |last=Younis |url=https://www.supermanhomepage.com/comics/interviews/interviews-intro.php?topic=c-interview_millar |title=Exclusive Mark Millar Interview (4/1999) |publisher=Superman Homepage |date=27 April 1999 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20011121213043/https://www.supermanhomepage.com/comics/interviews/interviews-intro.php?topic=c-interview_millar |archive-date=21 November 2001 }}</ref><ref name=JupitersLegacy1/> Soon after, Millar sold his first script, ''[[Saviour (comic)|Saviour]]'', to an independent [[Leicester]]-based publisher [[Trident Comics|Trident]].

By that time, Millar already became a semi-regular contributor to ''2000AD'' and its adjacent titles, and his output included several ''[[Robo-Hunter]]'' serials, a six-part prison story "Insiders" for ''Crisis'', a ''[[Judge Dredd]]'' spin-off series ''[[Red Razors]]'', as well as numerous [[daily comic strip|newspaper strip]]s starring Dredd himself for ''[[Daily Star (United Kingdom)|Daily Star]]''.

The first four issues of his run were again co-written with Morrison, who, according to Millar, "came on board <...> to make sure that DC selected me above anyone else pitching for the gig".<ref name=SeqTart1/> Although Millar's further work on ''Swamp Thing'' brought some critical acclaim to the ailing title, the book's sales were still low enough to warrant cancellation by the publisher. For the next few years, Millar continued to write sporadically for ''2000AD'' and various American publishers, often co-scripting the stories with Morrison, with whom he shares the writing credit on the mini-series ''[[Skrull Kill Krew]]'' for [[Marvel Comics|Marvel]], a short run on ''[[Vampirella]]'' for [[Harris Comics|Harris]], a year-long run on ''[[The Flash (comic book)|The Flash]]'' as well as ''[[Aztek (comics)|Aztek: The Ultimate Man]]'' for DC.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Manning|first1= Matthew K. |editor-last=Dolan |editor-first=Hannah |chapter=1990s|title = DC Comics Year By Year A Visual Chronicle|publisher=[[Dorling Kindersley]]|year=2010|location= London, United Kingdom|isbn= 978-0-7566-6742-9|page= 275|quote = In April [1996], writers Grant Morrison and Mark Millar introduced Aztek in a self-titled ongoing series that ran for a mere ten brilliant issues.}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |first=The Beast |last=Must Die |url=http://mindlessones.com/2008/07/08/whatever-happened-to-the-ultimate-man-morrison-and-millars-aztek/ |title=Whatever happened to the Ultimate Man? β Morrison and Millar's AZTEK |publisher=Mindless Ones |date=8 July 2008 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080714073314/http://mindlessones.com/2008/07/08/whatever-happened-to-the-ultimate-man-morrison-and-millars-aztek/ |archive-date=14 July 2008 |url-status=live }}</ref> Several of Millar's unrealized projects of this period include a revamp of Marvel's [[Marvel 2099|2099 imprint]]<ref>{{cite web |first=Brian |last=Cronin |url=http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2006/09/07/comic-book-urban-legends-revealed-67/ |title=Comic Book Urban Legends Revealed #67 |publisher=[[Comic Book Resources]] |date=7 September 2006 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20061030045452/http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2006/09/07/comic-book-urban-legends-revealed-67/ |archive-date=30 October 2006 }}</ref> and an "end-of-the-world" storyline for ''[[Marvel Tales (comics)|Marvel Tales]]'',<ref>{{cite web |first=Brian |last=Cronin |url=http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2006/11/2/comic-book-urban-legends-revealed-75/ |title=Comic Book Urban Legends Revealed #75 |publisher=[[Comic Book Resources]] |date=2 November 2006 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070104151921/http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2006/11/2/comic-book-urban-legends-revealed-75/ |archive-date=4 January 2007 }}</ref> both co-created with Grant Morrison.
