About the series
In 2021, Grant Morrison returned to Superman with this four-issue DC miniseries, reimagining the Man of Steel as a seasoned hero assembling a new, unconventional team. Joined by artists Mikel Janín, Travel Foreman, and Evan Cagle, the story positions an older, more weathered Superman as the anchor for a group of misfits and former villains—dubbed the Authority—tasked with a radical, proactive form of justice. This series explores what happens when a classic icon steps outside his usual boundaries, blending Morrison’s signature cosmic and metatextual sensibilities with a gritty, character-driven team dynamic. It matters as a bold, compact reinvention that bridges Superman’s legacy with a darker, more pragmatic corner of the DC Universe.
