scans_dailyThe next arc of The Authority Vol 5. started this month - Homecoming. If I knew what the hell was going on, I might have a proper opinion of it.
A giant beam of light surrounds the Carrier, magically restoring all its brokenness and unfusing it from unLondon. The Engineer uses the new found power to open Doors to every costumed hero on Earth and summon them to the Carrier. My knowledge of the Wildstorm'verse is pretty shaky outside The Authority, so due to the lack of info boxes I have no idea what, who or where most of these people are.
Said people, plus a host of civilians, gather around the Carrier.
Midnighter beats the man unconscious because we have new writers and they have to demonstrate that Midnighter is Dark and Violent.
Jack talks to the assembled masses - the Carrier is healing and will soon take off.
A sweet moment. Oh, BTW, Apollo has short hair now. No reference or mention in the text, and he's drawn in the flashbacks at the start of the issue with short hair too. It's awful.
Jack is back to being a dick. I like it.
The Carrier takes off, with Angie, Jack and Shen on board. Apollo and Midnighter remain on Earth. Then suddenly...
The carrier, while being drawn out of orbit by a mysterious alien force, is attacked simultaneously by a Kherubium warship and the Red Blade.
I predict a lot of tedious battles, more 90's 'radical' costumes and an arbitrary return to the status quo
