Former StormWatch Weatherman Henry Bendix has returned from
the dead and is busy modelling the Earth to his unique vision.
But what happened to "Earth's Last Line of Defence,"
the Authority? After the debacle in the nation's capital that
led to the total destruction of Washington, DC, they relinquished
control of the United States and all but vanished years ago.
How long can tyranny stand, before heroes will rise up? Can
a teenage Jenny Quantum reunite the fractured team and make
them heroes again - or has Bendix won the final battle...?
The
second book in the Authority's Revolution series
is released seven months after the first
volume. Not that I have the world's worst memory
(that accolade goes to our illustrious editor) but I had to
dig out the previous volume so that my mind was suitably refreshed
for this volume.
This
collection kicks off with a young Jenny Quantum being dragged
through a mirror and coming into contact with numerous other
Jenny's who have lived in different periods of time. When
she returns to her own time she's become a teenager. The reason
for this is that the younger Jenny is not mature enough to
deal with the impending threat to her timeline.
The
rest of the collection sees Jenny, her two dads and the rest
of The Authority tackling yet another threat to their very
existence. While not really earth shatteringly exciting, there
is enough here to keep Authority fans interested -
but only just.
While
this is not a bad collection, I couldn't help thinking that
maybe more should have been going on.
