ok, so it wasn't a million worlds coming into one, but there was a big bang in the end...Atom kills off most of the Autority, Void returns and takes back the piece of her from Atom thus turning Atom back to his DC costume and turning off the bomb within Atom....send Atom back to his home universe....and it ends with Void causing the Big Bang because the super-hereos was trying the shape the world into their image....clips of Deathblow, Fairchild, and Grifter is shown, and Atom back in DC Proper.
Up next is the return of:
Wildcats (W - Grant Morrison, A - Jim Lee)
Wetworks (W - Mike Carey, A - Whilce Portacio)
Gen13 (W - Gail Simone, A - Talent Caldwell)
Authority (W - Grant Morrison, Gene Ha)
Stormwatch (W - Christos Gage, Doug Mahnke)
Deathblow (W - Brian Azzarello, A - Carlos D'Anda)
Midnighter (W - Gath Ennis, A - Chris Sprouse)
i plan on picking up Wildcats, Wetworks, Gen13...maybe Stormwatch and Deathblow. |

btw, "Identity" was just a psychological crisis, I believe you meant "Infinite" for a worlds shattering crisis

as for continuity, the big bang restarted the universe, so supposedly whatever happened in past comics will have nothing with the new titles (rumor), or they might do keep some/make some universe (another possibility)....that's why grifter's back alive, along with Midnighter and company. |

Morrison seems particularly well-suited to the Authority, and Ennis a fairly natural match for Midnighter. Then again, didn't he write Kev / More Kev? That wasn't my cup of tea...  Hasbro don't make 'em like they used to. Thanks to aricosaur! The Transformers Archive |
