what the fuck is the point of Swift

So you have a guy whose power is literally winning, a hypertechnopath with more firepower than all the worlds armies put togetger, superman, an actual God and two people with the power to do anything.

And then an asian chick with wings and a boobjob.

Seriously what the fuck was the point of Swifth? Lame powers aside she hardlt got any character focus or cool moments.

You ask anyone there favourite member of The Authority, who the hell is going to say Swift?

Someone had a kink for Dawnstar probably

I'll bite.

Swift was their hunter/tracker, faster than anyone else on the team except for Apollo and maybe the Engineer. If they had to track down something outside of a city, she was the only competent person on the team to do it

Doctor was only omnipotent when he could get his face out of his daily bowl of heroin and donkey porn

Apollo is semi astute, but unless he's carrying the Midnighter around he can only follow obvious trails, and even if he is he's moving way slower.

Hawksmoor is useless outside of cities

Jenny would tell Swift to do it

Just because the Authority only went against targets that didn't require that sort of tracking doesn't make her useless.

>faster than.. the half of the team that cannot fly

like airspeed really mattered when they all effectively had the ability to teleport.

What's the point of any character which you don't personally like?

didn't she also have the power to activate others super powers or am i thinking of another wildstorm character?

anyway, she's kind of like Mantis from Marvel
she was prophesied to bring about universal peace or some shit
problem was she could only really sleep with one person at a time

Because they're the "Not Justice League" and they needed a "Not Hawkgirl" character.

ITT: People who read Authority but not Stormwatch or Jenny Sparks

>Apollo
>Swift

If there was ever a live action series, I hope these two get some much needed character development.

That was Christine Trelane.

Always thought the line-up was close to the jla cartoon.

I did, Swift was still pretty boring there too.

I'm still a bit butthurt that Ellis killed all the Stormwatch characters except the ones he created.

>>83548813
I think that was Bruce Timm's intent
