Book 1

The Authority

by Warren Ellis and Mark Millar

Published 1 May 2000
Meet the New Bosses The hugely acclaimed team of Warren Ellis (Transmetropolitan) and Bryan Hitch (JLA) conclude their earth-rattling run on The Authority, just in time for the super-cool team of Mark Millar (Judge Dredd/ JLA) and Frank Quitely (Batman: The Scottish Connection) to come aboard and rock your world. In the first of two, epic story-arcs our heros battle god, who is keen on wiping out the viral infestation (ie. mankind) that has colonised earth. In the second, Millar and Quitely pit the Authority against a seemingly infinite number of superheroes. Essential reading!

Book 4

Transfer of Power

by Mark Millar and Tom Peyer

Published 1 October 2002
The Authority are dead; slaughtered by Seth, the former redneck farmer and 'six billion dollar b*****d' with more than 1,000 super powers. In their place are an establishment-approved version of the Authority - The Colonel, Rush, The Machine, Street, The Professor, Teuton and Last Call - and they seek nothing more than to destroy the work the Authority have been doing...but there are pieces missing in the puzzle. Where is the Midnighter's body? What happened to the incredibly powerful child, Jenny Quantum? And who is going to close the hole in the Bleed that threatens the entire multiverse? This bitingly satirical, all-action collection has the answers: and they'll change the world as you know it!
