Update the proposed archive, check you got the version below, then purge
your grub packages, and then reinstall the latest version that should
fix your issue.

grub2 (2.02-2ubuntu8) bionic; urgency=medium

  * Drop debian/patches/mkconfig_keep_native_term_active.patch, which can
    lead to flickering between graphical and text mode when traversing the
    menu. (LP: #1752767)
  * debian/patches/yylex-explicitly_cast_fprintf_to_void.patch: Fix FTBFS
    with flex 2.6.4.

Title:
  Weird grub boot display since Bionic

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I have a Nvidia GTX 1070 Ti. Everything was fine on Artful. I decided to update to the Bionic beta to test it. Since then, the grub menu display is fucked up (when I move the highlight with the keyboard arrows, I have the text written twice: one in black and white, one with the purple/violet background and not aligned).
  See the screenshot attached.
