Wrote a retrospective of The Authority comics series, that also traces the interplay between home media, movies and comics, with an eye towards analyzing the current streaming environment thankfully fails, by flattening each medium, and how under James Gunn's DCU it might entrap us in an artificial culture war to the benefit of media and tech companies.

I’ve finished reading #TheAuthority in preparation for the new DCU and all I can say is I understand why the main universe takeaways were Midnighter and Apollo.

An entire second run of the #TheAuthority that was shipped to me a while back thanks to #NobleKnightGames. They all came individually bagged and boarded and for a really good price too! #JamesGunn better do the team right!

I updated my #comicbook #chronology #website with a brand-new addition: a chronology project for the original Switcheroo-Witcheroo herself, #dccomics' #JuneMoone, a.k.a. #Enchantress of the #SuicideSquad, #Shadowpact, and #TheAuthority! Check it out here along with my other #comic chronology projects: https://opiedokiecomicchronologies.com/

Just talked to @JimLee about everything selling out, but the fine folks at @DCComics will have more coming soon. #DCStudios #TheAuthority https://twitter.com/bleedingcool/status/1621659278623870976
Hey #dccomfans - I read the occasional comic and loved #theauthority (I know it was a #wildstorm print).
Can anyone explain how it fits into #jamesgunn dc cinematic universe? Did it ever become dc cannon? Is the film/tv show going to be part of the new universe or sit separately?

Jenny Sparks is one of my FAVORITE comic book characters and I can’t wait to see her in #TheAuthority movie coming from the new DCU! https://www.polygon.com/23579767/authority-dc-james-gunn-superman-movie-dcu-slate
Reading ‘The Authority’ can’t help reading Jenny Sparks in Vanessa Kirby’s voice from ‘Hobbs & Shaw’

Really interested in how #TheAuthority will be adapted in a way that a couple of its characters won’t come off as rip-off’s of Doctor Strange, Batman & Hawkgirl (especially since she won’t even have debuted in the DCU yet)
#theauthority #dcuchapterone #hawkgirl #DCStudios #DCU #dc
#TheAuthority will be a very interesting movie at a time when there’s a lot of commentary about how superheroes as a genre are really just the guardians of the status quo,rather than using their powers to try and really change & improve the world

Started my day right by watching #JamesGunn’s #DC announcement. It was exactly what I was hoping for with Gunn not only highlighting projects featuring DC heavyweights like #Superman and #Batman but also lesser known characters like #BoosterGold, #CreatureCommandos and #TheAuthority. This isn’t going to just be the DC Universe that we all know and love, but James Gunn’s DC Universe filled with all things epic, heartfelt, quirky, and strange. And I for one can’t wait to explore it!

Autre projet et autre groupe de héros avec #TheAuthority, film d’envergure centré sur les personnages de l’univers WildStorm de #DCComics.
Une super-équipe brutale et cynique qui viendra assurément troubler l’équilibre des différents protagonistes du #DCU.
Finalmente, #WarnerBros anunció el plan concreto para reiniciar el Universo Cinematográfico de #DC. Los filmes confirmados por #WB son:
🎬 #SupermanLegacy, que no será historia de origen de #Superman, pero si es la historia origen del reboot.
🎬 #TheAuthority, basado en un comic indie de 1992.
🎬 #TheBraveAndTheBold, un filme de "Batman e Hijo" que no afectará al #Batman de Robert Patinson.
🎬 #Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, basado en el cómic de 2021.
🎬 #SwampThing, la historia de origen de la Cosa del Pantano.
El plan suena decente, pero tiene al menos un detalle que me preocupa: La Fase 1 de este nuevo Universo se llama "Gods and Monsters". Si, exactamente el mismo nombre que Ubisoft no pudo usar para su videojuego "Immortals Fenyx Rising" por supuestos conflictos de #copyright con la bebida energética Monster.
Con ese mal augurio atado al reinicio de #DCEU, ¿que podría salir mal? 🤦♂️
"Superman: Legacy" tiene su estreno planeado para el 11 de julio de 2025.

The next film -- and the plan is to do two a year with two HBO Max TV series -- is #TheAuthority, which features a team of superheroes with rather extreme methods of protecting the planet that first originated in the late 1990s.
#HBOMax series #ParadiseLost will follow, described as a #GameOfThrones drama set on the all-female island that is #WonderWoman’s birthplace, Themyscira.
