Authority Vol 1 #11
Release Date: January 2000
"Outer Dark 3 of 4"
Written by Warren Ellis
Pencilled by Bryan Hitch
Inked by Paul Neary
Coloured by Laura DePuy
Lettered by Ryan Cline
Edited by Rachelle Brissenden
Cover by Bryan Hitch & Paul Neary
Solicitation:
Part 3 of the 4-part "Outer Dark." The true owners of the Earth have returned; and they don't like how the planet has grown up. They are especially not fond of the five-billion strong infestation of life on its landmasses, and this oxygen stuff in the atmosphere. Now only the Authority stands between humanity and an enemy who doesn't want to rule the world or use the world — it just wants to wipe us off it and start over.
SPOILERS BEYOND THIS POINT!
Synopsis:
As The Engineer watches the giant black triangle-shaped mass descent upon Africa, she sends The Authority images of what she sees. Swift says that The Carrier's scans indicate the object is as big as the moon and it's organic. A weary Jenny Sparks walks off by herself to think. She contacts The Engineer and asks if she can fly into space. Angie says she can and Jenny tells her to meet Apollo in orbit around the moon.
Angie reaches the moon's orbit. Apollo allows Angie time to set down on the moon and declare herself the first woman on the moon. As they leave the moon, they come face to face with the "God" alien. They see it is pyramid-shaped.
The Doctor fills in the others on the alien and its purpose. Jenny determines that they must kill it but is at a loss as to how. Then Jenny gets an idea and calls for them to try and get The Carrier to leave Earth's orbit.
In Manhattan, Jackson King argues to Christine Trelane that they should have never retired. Just then, Jenny Sparks begins a global transmission to the citizens of Earth. She tells them that The Authority will do all they can to stop the alien.
The Doctor gets The Carrier to let Angie inside it. She convinces The Carrier to leave Earth's orbit to engage the alien. The Doctor then approaches Jenny and tells her it's December 31st. He tells her he 'knows' about her and Jenny tells him not to tell anyone what he knows.
Jenny then orders The Carrier to fly into one of the alien's pores so they can kill it from the inside.
