The Authority #1
In "The Circle, One of Four," Warren Ellis and Phil Jimenez launch a high-stakes crossover with the Authority, where a chance encounter between Planetary and the super-team sets off a chain reaction. As the Authority probes the Adirondack caves to locate Doc Brass' multiverse computer, a rogue technician activates it—unleashing an invasion of marauding robots. The two groups, unaware of each other's presence, are forced to collaborate to survive. Bryan Hitch and Paul Neary deliver a striking cover that captures the tension, while the interior art by Jimenez, with inks by Andy Lanning and colors by Laura Martin, brings the action to life.
In "Ruling the World," the Planetary team—Elijah Snow, the Drummer, and Jakita Wagner—launch a daring infiltration of the Authority’s fortress to steal classified data, unaware that their mission coincides with the Authority’s own urgent quest into the Adirondacks. When a rogue technician activates Doc Brass’ long-buried multiverse computer, Earth is overrun by relentless robotic forces, forcing Jenny Sparks, Apollo, the Midnighter, Jack Hawksmoor, Swift, the Doctor, and the Engineer to unite with their former allies in a desperate fight for survival.
