Written by Grant Morrison. Art and cover by Gene Ha. It's here: the perfect reintroduction to The Authority by Grant Morrison and Gene Ha! The Carrier is dead, leaving The Authority stuck on an Earth in a reality they don't recognize. Their powers barely work, and to add insult to injury, in this universe, they're not only unknown to the population, they're - horror of horrors - comic book characters. Collecting issues #1 and #2 by Morrison and Ha, this is the vital jumping-on point before Keith Giffen and Darick Robertson begin completing the 12-issue story in this month's THE AUTHORITY: THE LOST YEAR #3. 48 pages, full color.
