He holds both an MS in Information Science from the University of North Texas and a BFA from the University of Texas at Arlington.

Since then he has gone on to write for over a dozen websites, including 411 Mania, Comics Nexus and The Cult of Nobody. He got his start writing for the legendary DC Comics digital fanzine Fanzing, before receiving his own column, The Mount. Matt Morrison has been writing about comics since before the word 'blogging' was coined. (Additionally, Gilda was in the hospital for most of November and December, making it hard for her to have committed the Holiday killing on Thanksgiving.) Some fans criticized this ending, saying it wasn't a fair mystery since there were no clues hinting at Alberto's faking his death and nothing to indicate Gilda's involvement in the crimes. It was revealed in the final pages of Long Halloween, however, that there was a second Holiday killer Harvey Dent's wife Gilda, who talked to herself about committing the first three Holiday murders in the hopes of starting a gang war that would reduce her husband's workload and bring him back to focusing on starting a family with her. The big twist of the original Long Halloween comic books was that the Holiday Killer was Carmine Falcone's son Alberto, who had faked his own death on New Year's Eve and gone on to kill everyone who could confirm he was still alive, such as coroner Jasper Dolan, and his Aunt Carla, who had found evidence that his autopsy was faked. It remains to be seen how fans will respond to the changes made in Batman: The Long Halloween, Part 2. Something similar happened with the animated adaptation of Batman: Hushand fans of the comics were aggravated by the change. The same cannot be said of Part 2, which makes several substantial changes that completely change some of the character dynamics and the ending of the story.

The animated film adaptation of The Long Halloween has largely followed the same story as the original comics, with most of the changes made in Part 1 involving pacing issues and eliminating supporting characters who didn't have much to do with the overall story.

The story also depicted the downfall of District Attorney Harvey Dent and how he became the crime-boss Two-Face. The story explored how the underworld of Gotham City came to be dominated by costumed supervillains, as the organized crime families who had run things for decades lost ground to this new wave of criminals. Published as a 13-issue miniseries in 1996, The Long Halloween was created as an unofficial follow-up to Batman: Year One.
