|| mystery song of the day ||
So no one told you life was gonna be this way
Your job's a joke, you're broke
Your love life's DOA
It's like you're always stuck in second gear
When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month
Or even your year, but
I'll be there for you
(When the rain starts to pour)
I'll be there for you
(Like I've been there before)
I'll be there for you
('Cause you're there for me too)
You're still in bed at ten
And work began at eight
You've burned your breakfast
So far, things are going great
Your mother warned you there'd be days like these
But she didn't tell you when the world has brought
You down to your knees that
I'll be there for you
(When the rain starts to pour)
I'll be there for you
(Like I've been there before)
I'll be there for you
('Cause you're there for me too)
No one could ever know me
No one could ever see me
Seems you're the only one who knows
What it's like to be me
Someone to face the day with
Make it through all the rest with
Someone I'll always laugh with
Even at my worst, I'm best with you, yeah
It's like you're always stuck in second gear
When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month
Or even your year
I'll be there for you
(When the rain starts to pour)
I'll be there for you
(Like I've been there before)
I'll be there for you
('Cause you're there for me too)
I'll be there for you
I'll be there for you
I'll be there for you

Sad thing is Warren Ellis' run depicted them as professionals who didn't want to kill but understood that sometimes situations call for it. But Mark Miller turned them into a bunch of smug jerks straight out a Garth Ennis comic.

@paulakroy2635 20 дней назад

How is it called a Garth ennis comic when this is literally the schick that got millar famous first. Ennis even did a some stuff with the authority ( kev and midnighter which are fine not top tier but good ). And the authority are written less like assholes

In a way, Mark Millar (and maybe Garth Ennis) do like Superman and the Trio (Bats and Wondy). Trouble is that they don't extend that admiration and respect too any other superhero, so gotta make shallow, cartoonish, unrepentant, hatesink lookalikes while the "REAL" heroes take care of them.

I love that story because of the conflict of ideals between the characters. Midnighter is the kind of guy who will destroy an entire city if it means killing the badguy in the fastest way possible. Superman though will not compromise innocent lives like that and because Midnighter can't just bully and overpower like he does in the Authority books, he's finally met someone who can challenge his cold pragmatism and seeing a guy remain steadfast to doing the right thing causes Midnighter to soften up. Its all very compelling.

One of the aspects I loved about The Authority is that they were totally open about their activities. Everytime they faced a crisis they made a global broadcasting (like Zod in Man of steel) telling everyone what was happening, not the classic "we can tell people to avoid the panic." One thing that I hate about the MCU is that we never know what people know about the previous movie. People know Ironman took a warhead through a wormhole, bit do they know said warhead was meant to destroy Manhattan? They know Sokovia was destroyed by Ultron, but apparently the Avengers didn't tell anyone that Ultron was created by Stark and Banner.

@thakatspajamaz 20 дней назад

I don't understand where the idea that The Authority is black and white comes from - it's literally the definition of "we know we're bad and we're doing it because we have to" and then sometimes it DOESN'T work and they have to own that. Sure, there are some bad writers who don't get the characters, but the first few runs absolutely understood they were generally high level good bastards who did bad things on interpersonal levels to get that better world made. And it failed a lot! And they owned those failures. And they succeeded a lot too! It was messy and not afraid to deal with the nuance of politics. All with a heavy dose of black humor and hyperbole! I feel like this reality gets lost in the argument that they "think they're noble like classic silver age heroes". That being said I LOVE how you mention that they're basically cynical utopians. The "good fascist" angle makes no sense politically, but they are, definitionally, authoritarians and feed into the id of "good" authoritarianism. Absolutely love those early runs and still had fun with the dumb later ones. Them taking on the US during the Iraq war and saving their victims is pretty based AND subversive from an American comic.

@lacrartezorok4975 20 дней назад

I think the misconception comes from the way people oversimplifies it. They're not trying to control every aspect of people's life's, but they threaten the governments to change things. So they could be called authoritarians (pun not intended) but not totalitarians (wich is what fascists are).

@thakatspajamaz 20 дней назад

@@lacrartezorok4975 this this this. Too many armchair philosophers keep calling anyone exerting any power over others "fascists". Fascism is a very specific form of authoritarianism - specifically "Palingenetic Ultranationalism" IE harkening back to a mythical past in order to consolidate power with a shrinking in-group vs. outgroup. The Authority is literally the OPPOSITE of this. They are exclusively forward thinking, destroying the concepts of tribal nationalism and destroying artificially coerced hierarchies to liberate all peoples as equals. They don't even tell The People what to do they simply don't ALLOW them to do political-scale oppression and evil. Otherwise, they're hands-off. Do they fuck up, again, already addressed, all the time. Do they own this? Yes. Have they made the world a better place? Yes. Whenever the world got shittier it was explicitly BECAUSE actual fascists were trying to overthrow the Authority's protection of The People and reinstate their own tribal fascism. The Authority is literally just a group of light Auth-Left supers showing us what would actually happen if flawed but decent people had God-like powers and a God-like superstructure and supercomputer.

@wildermidnight 7 дней назад

Following the Authority as it played out back in the day was wild. Ellis' run is spot on as you described. A plus work...but it's still nothing compared to Millar's run. The series sales trajectory before it was censored/stunted/reworked/delayed was amazing. If left unchecked I think it would have been one of DCs top selling titles in the late 90's/early oh's. Not knowing what was going on, wondering if DC was going to leave the series unfinished with the team dead made it that much more exciting. Everything related to the Authority since the end of the original series has been horribly, horribly poor. One fun little tidbit is Millar named the Doctor and some of the replacement Authority after posters from the old DC Comics message board. The message board pictured at the end of issue 27 is a screenshot of the old forum.

@vwin9112 11 дней назад

Semi fun fact: There WAS a time in which the Authority(with a new Jenny Sparks) would funny enough meet what was bascially "What if the Authority was the Justice League...international?" in Authority: Lost Years....bascially a bunch of sitcom goofballs who act more like the JLU than Ellis team, especially they even do nods to the likes of the blue beetle/booster gold money schemes with Midnighter and Apollo. And that's not counting the this variant of the Authority does engage in fights in the city and no one got hurt...or bascially do cheesy catchphrases.

I will say this: The problems with "The Authority" has nothing to do with "The Authority" itself and anyone's run on it. There are two major problems that lead to this becoming forgotten and propaganda calling it "deplorable". 1. It was too damn popular, it was literally overshadowing a lot of the DC stuff that had going, and it was compatible with it. So when DC bought the competition that was Wildstorm they wound up with a situation where they did not want to compete with themselves, and despite some attempts to use them, they found most Wildstorm characters didn't work outside of their original world or context. "The Authority" was allowed to be the recipient of blackballing and "deplorable" status simply because DC found it, and Wildstorm in general, problematic when they no longer had to compete with it. 2. As thing shifted from reasonable leftism to what we have now, the 90s take on things became an increasing issue. Given that this captured the wish fulfillment of the times and did things correctly, it became a problem in the eyes of increasingly whacked leftists, especially as more and more of what they were supposed to oppose became a literal part of their dogma. As The Authority was pre-social media for the most part, and the internet was not what it is now when it was first being done, especially the Warren Ellis run, it's relatively easy to erase by just not giving it much of a presence, and as the fans age, none of the kids want to pay attention to the older folk anymore. This is why it can be so bloody hilarious when you see Zoomers acting like they are the first ones to do things like have gay super heroes, when it was done successfully decades before hand.

You’re the minority of comic lovers, it’s not a bad thing however people that think you ruined what we love about DC superhero. Coincidentally zack snyder is the same way.
