UPDATE: Colors by Phillip

Earth Is Under New Management

I couldn't not do an Authority piece regardless that I have about 8 million things (and a brand new baby) to do. It's just too awesome.

It took me too many years to read The Authority, but I always loved and respected it for its influence on the industry. This is the book that set the standard. It changed comics into the widescreen, big budget, cinematic comics that we've had for over a good decade.

Plus, it's awesome. My fave Bryan Hitch work cause he was excited about it. And you can see it in his art.

I *wish* I had time to color this. Let me know if you (talented colorist readers) want to!

I was really late coming to the game. I only first read Authority last year, I could finally see what the big hype was. In hindsight it was the obvious precursor to the Ultimates.

My first post at the Periodic Heroes! Thanks again for the invite Phil. So, to be honest I've never read either The Authority nor Planetary but I'm familiar with it thanks to Frank Quitely's work and I've always liked this guy's costume design. Now I understand he's a bio engineered gay Superman but I guess that just mean I have to read the damn book.

Anyway, hope everyone enjoys it and thanks Phil for letting me in such a great group of artists (hope I can keep up).

See ya next week!

RESPECT MY AUTHORITY!

UGH Phil! now that we're in year 2 of this shin dig I had the exact same reaction to this subject as I had a year ago when Phil picked Watchmen "That's fun, crap i have to draw it!" happily though while my watchmen piece was garbage I'm glad to report I actually produced something decent this time around. Sadly I've never read the authority, it sits among the endless reading pile I have and I swear I'll get to it at some point. Regardless midnighter is a lot of fun to draw and this is hopefully the beginning of what will be a full year of awesome art. So welcome back to the new and improved periodic heroes 2.0 people and remember TO RESPECT MY AUTHORITY!!

I always thought the carrier was one of the unsung heroes of this series. Like R2-D2 in Star Wars. Any hoo go to my blog HERE if you want to see the full process of how I created this painting.
