- Reading: Mark Millar's The Authority run
Here it is. Let's read some fun and crazy Millar
mite b cool
>Literally first issue Millar blows up a room full of infants
>Millar being pretentious as fuck while acting he isn't writing just another capeshit
>All of Millar's edginess and unnecessary vulgarity
>fun
Well at least here's a bump for you OP. I must say big reason I read this run was for Quitely's art and that's not even that good here.
Millar probably thought point of Authority was narcissistic heroes doing edgy thing. Best run after Ennis is definitely Authority Revolution

This comic has censorship on its second page. It was suppose to say "Jakarta", you can even see Habibie on the next pages.
>>83305405
Welp i see it like The Ultimates-like kind of fun. Crazy assholes beating up another crazy assholes with much destructions. I think you take it too serious
>>83305280
I want to stick it in the engineer
>>83305440
Did it say that in original printing?

Yikes

Has anyone else noticed that there's always a guy like jack hawksmoor in these 'deconstructions' of the superhero genre? Some buff, confident asshole with a thick neck and a shitty brown or black haircut?
What's up with that?

Don't bully please
>>83305546
archetypal deconstructions, by definition, need archetypes
>>83305810
>advising to resize 4 MB images
>bullying
>>83305818
I don't know how to do it
>>83305813
Maybe I'm not as well read as I should be, but it seems like it's an archetype that's specific to these sorts of deconstructions, you know? Like, "superheroes are assholes" type deconstructions. Shouldn't they be using ones from non-satirical works?
>>83305849
Bit Authority pretty much satirical
>>83305813
Author's projections of regular guys.
>>83305849
it's the nature of deconstructions. They're going to resemble the works they're deconstructing, and capes have these archetypal figures, so it follows that cape deconstructions will eventually give rise to their own archetypes
>>83305280
Is that Midnighter and Apollo? You know, the gay batman and superman?
>>83305446
yep, it's a Millar comic
Mark really doesn't like France

look at that smug baby
that baby knows what it did
>>83306130
yes that's right
it's a Millar book
>>83306245
>The towers
Shit how old was this?
Or did the Authority crush radical Islam and the House of Saud?
>>83306313
It was 2000
>>83306328
Dead children get me hard
>>83306349
Mark is it you?
Still the only good Authority run since Ellis.
I miss the good ol Wildstorm days. This, Planetary, Wildcats 3.0, Sleeper and Alan's ABC titles were the best capeshit ever.
I'm out, guys. Its just hard to fathom a world where extinction level events happen every 5 minutes and after the "heroes" save it, everything goes back to normal woo time to shop for new shoes and shit
>>83306510
So, you're not into Marvel or DC in general, huh?
>>83306405
Brubaker's better than this.
>>83306512
Still want to tap metal ass
Can't wait for the Seth issues.
>>83306510
It's hard to imagine a world where famine, wars and crimes being committed a few thousand miles around you while you're sitting there shitposting.

Just more evidence this was man-made

I see you've never lived in California or Israel
People get used to bad things happening. If it rains every day, eventually you just get a good raincoat.
>>83305237
Read it already. The Authority is very underrated. Always imitated but never done outright either. Jack Hawksmoor is probably my favorite super hero.
>>83305325
I love how the Carrier is a character in it's own right, it's just really iconic, you always know when it's around and how it effects the story itself.
>>83318775
really bad earthquakes are ridiculously uncommon
the wildifires, on the other hand...

Always wondered if this guy, the big headed scientist, was supposed to be based on a comic writer.
>>83318853
I think he's supposed to be Jack Kirby
>>83319445
That's what I thought.
