This episode, “Is The Authority The Greatest” could also have been called “Is The Authority The Greatest Influence” because we make a case for the original Bryan Hitch and Warren Ellis run being the most ripped-off comic book of the last thirty years. Its influence ripples to this day in the modern conception of the superhero film from looks to morality, especially in the MCU. Ed, Ron, and Producer Bill talk about how The Authority fits (or DOESN’T) into DC’s future publishing and movie universe under James Gunn. If you want a primer on the characters or an in-depth exploration of their past, present, and possible future, either way we got you covered.
