25 Years Ago, The Authority First Changed the World

In every Look Back, we examine a comic book issue from 10/25/50/75 years ago (plus a wild card every month with a fifth week in it). This time around, we head back to March 1999 to see the epic debut of The Authority.I feel like I retell this story a lot, but at the same time, it really IS important to understand The Authority’s creation, so let’s go back in time and discuss the story of how Warren Ellis came to redefine the Wildstorm Universe, and how it all came out of a seemingly minor creative change.Ellis had Bendix revealed to be a madman, and he was seemingly killed at the end of the first volume of Stormwatch, with Jackson King named the new Weatherman of Stormwatch. This led into a new volume of Stormwatch, with penciler Oscar Jimenez and inker Jason Gorder.
