The Authority #8

The full Authority roster surges forward on this Bryan Hitch and Paul Neary cover — the brooding, close-cropped face of Jenny Sparks' team leader filling the foreground while winged figures, energy-crackling heroes, and the rest of the squad press in behind him with unmistakable momentum. "Shiftships — Four of Four" signals the conclusion of a multi-part arc, and Warren Ellis's run with Hitch was already redefining what superhero comics could look like by late 1999. A great snapshot of WildStorm's boldest team at full force.
