Wanted was his first comic-book under the Millarworld banner, a huge hit that spawned the 2008 movie starring Angelina Jolie.

On the advice of Stan Lee, Mark decided to branch out from Marvel and create his own characters while still working at the company. His Superman book, Red Son, is the highest-selling Superman graphic novel in history and was adapted by Warner Bros as an animated movie in 2020. Screen-writer Zak Penn credits The Ultimates as his template for the 2012 Avengers movie and both Civil War and his classic Wolverine: Old Man Logan provided the inspiration for two blockbuster movies of the same name. He worked with the best artists in the industry and launched his X-Men revamp at number one with Ultimate X-Men, re-thinking The Avengers next and shattering his own sales numbers with The Ultimates before creating the Marvel Civil War storyline in 2006, remaining Marvel's most financially successful event of the 21st century and their best-selling graphic novel of all time. In Summer 2000, Marvel brought Millar in as part of a new team to revitalise their comic-book line. He is also President of Netflix's Millarworld Division in Los Angeles and serves as an executive producer on all his Hollywood properties. Mark Millar is the New York Times best-selling writer of Jupiter's Legacy, Kick-Ass, Kingsman, The Magic Order, Wanted, Old Man Logan, Marvel Civil War and Superman: Red Son.
