Keine aktuelle Diskussion zu diesem Buch. 1503 ( ) You know a comic series is going to be good, at least as long as it still has its original creative team on the job, when the (almost inevitable) awkwardness of the establishing arc is almost undetectable, and when the immersion is almost seamless. There was one rather awkward moment, where someone said something that didn't make sense for the character to say -- it very obviously only existed as exposition for the reader, and it wasn't even all that necessary -- but the main reason it stood out is probably the fact it was the only significant case like that in this entire volume. Warren Ellis set up a grand design very quickly, and pulled it off smoothly. These are the issues of The Authority that I read years ago, and I enjoyed them back then even more than I do now. The issues covered by the second collection were new to me, and as far as Warren carried them they were true excellence in comic book storytelling. I don't always find that I agree with Warren's ideological stances as expressed in The Authority, but his stories make a great case for them. It carries some visceral joy to the reader at a level that is rare in comic books, and it prompts the thoughtful reader to think more deeply than usual. There is not much more to want from a comic book series, I think. Volume 1: Bogotac Volume 2: Pretty good. Sve posle toga samo downhill. Pod tim mislim na Coup d'Etat (kol'ko-tol'ko), Revolution i posebno, Volume 4, which is utter shite. Wildstorm Armageddon, Wildstorm Revelations i Number of the Beast sam preskocio. To su neki end of world crossover-i. Volume 3 (The Lost Year) je zapoceo Grant Morrison, al' batalio posle dva broja, a kasnije su drugi zavrsili. To cu verovatno procitati completion-a radi, ako ne poludim od krša. Ne bih jos stavio da sam zavrsio citanje, al' sad sam vec kliknuo i napisao sve ovo, so too late. Kinda missed out on these the first time around. I remember sampling the WildStorm thing when Jim Lee was involved right at the beginning, but I soon lost interest so that when these titles and characters were evolving, I wasn't really paying attention. Came to The Authority through Garth Ennis and Kev and found the first two volumes going relatively cheap. This was good enough, I suppose, apart from the weirdly racist villain of the first arc. Refreshingly violent and mildly fascist in a way that I guess was meant satirically but which may have flown over people's heads. I can't say this was essential, but it was fun. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Named by James Gunn as an influence for Gods and Monsters, the first chapter of the new DC Universe film and television slate! This New York Times bestselling story inspires the upcoming film THE AUTHORITY. The Authority are heroes in only the strictest sense of the word. Ruthless and unforgiving, this group of insanely powerful superhumans face down countless menaces to Earth, protecting mankind with their cold version of justice. An invasion from an alternate Earth, an international terrorist who is laying waste to major cities and a hostile alien intelligence who calls himself God all fall under their rule. This is THE AUTHORITY. Pay allegiance. Or get your head kicked in. Created by legendary writer Warren Ellis (THE WILD STORM, TRANSMETROPOLITAN) and artists Bryan Hitch (JUSTICE LEAGUE), Paul Neary (The Ultimates) and Laura Martin (WONDER WOMAN), THE AUTHORITY is considered one of the most groundbreaking titles in modern comics history. Collects issues #1-12, PLANETARY/THE AUTHORITY: RULING THE WORLD and a new story from WILDSTORM: A CELEBRATION OF 25 YEARS. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
