Speaking at WonderCon's Losers press conference, Morgan told the audience why comics have become so popular amongst filmmakers.
"It's an absolute pleasure to be here and be in this world," said Morgan. "This is a great world to be in and, as actors, you get all these scripts.
"The great thing about comic books is that the stories are original. There's this kind of ebb and flow in Hollywood. You get the same scripts over and over. Every romantic comedy reads exactly the same.
"In the world of graphic novels, there's some originality there. There's some great characters."
Morgan played The Comedian in Zack Snyder's adaptation of Alan Moore's Watchmen, and will appear as Clay in the movie based on Andy Diggle and Jock's Vertigo property The Losers.
