Fund It!: The Authority – Rebirth

By | Mar 17, 2011 | Columns

On the one hand, I appreciate that Wildstorm tried to do something that truly couldn’t be done in your standard Marvel or DC superhero franchise. On the other, the current post-apocalyptic setting – while a good enough idea story-wise – really doesn’t fit in all that well with certain characters of the Wildstorm Universe. The […]
