Collects Authority (Vol 1) #17-20, Authority Annual 2000, and two stories from WildStorm Summer Special.
*When the Earth itself turns against its human population--spurred by a renegade doctor with a taste for genocide--even THE AUTHORITY is hard-pressed to prevent global disaster. Saving as many lives as they can, the team finds itself stretched thin, until the real force behind world calamity is revealed. Mark Millar and Frank Quitely (with an assist from Chris Weston) make THE AUTHORITY their own with this sweeping, sensational story arc.
Rounding out this collection are the AUTHORITY story from WildStorm's DEVIL'S NIGHT event, by Joe Casey and Cully Hamner, and two adventures from the WILDSTORM SUMMER SPECIAL, featuring Jack Hawksmoor (by Warren Ellis and Cully Hamner) and the Engineer (by Paul Jenkins and Georges Jeanty).
