February 17, 2016 at 11:50 pmI absolutely love Midnighter, and I have ever since I was introduced to him in Grayson. I went back and read just about anything that featured him in some way though I’m still trying to track down some back issues for The Authority: The Lost Year. This current series is great! More people should really give it a shot.

February 17, 2016 at 7:02 pmI’m not sure my tweet can be entered since my account is private but I love Midnighter. Only read some of the Authority and Grayson/early Stormwatch so I’m really excited to see a more fleshed out version of the character. Any other midnighter suggestions that I might enjoy?

February 18, 2016 at 12:16 pmHey Lance!
Garth Ennis and Chris Sprouse (as well as Glenn Fabry for one issue) created the Midnighter solo series back in the Wildstorm days. It’s very different from Steve and co.’s (for one, Midnighter is older, married, and more established), but the story is a lot of fun. I would also recommend checking out Midnighter #7 by Bryan K. Vaughan and Darick Robertson because that issue rivals Orlando & ACO’s #7 for one of the best issues created for the character ever.
Dan Abnett, Andy Lanning, & Simon Coleby’s The Authority “World’s End” and “Rule Brittania” run is also quite good. Features the team after a post-apocalyptic event and can be read without the context of the 10 years of comics prior to it.
Happy reading!

February 17, 2016 at 3:44 pmI love Midnighter and all that he stands for. He’s not your usual superhero, but he’s a good guy regardless. He’s also a major figure in gay representation in media. I’m so glad he’s taken off, he honestly deserves it! Steve Orlando is a truly enchanting writer, too. Couldn’t ask for anyone else to write Midnighter. I’d love to own his comic. Good luck to everyone!

February 17, 2016 at 10:48 amI did a swap with one of my friends, he lent me Batman and Robin and I read that, he agreed to try Midnighter… after I went on and on about why I loved it so much 🙂 Pester power works.
(and I learned a lot about Dick Grayson in the process)

February 17, 2016 at 5:06 pmLearning about Dick is a definite side-benefit to reading Midnighter! 😀 Thanks for partipating in our giveaway!

February 17, 2016 at 10:21 amI super, super, super love Midnighter and had always been a little hesitant to read the Authority after, like, Ellis left. But. I read the first issue or so of this series and, had I the money, would have totally kept up with it. It’s so good.
Ray Sonne
February 17, 2016 at 5:05 pmI honestly think Steve, ACO, and the rest have created one of the best series with an Authority member after the Ellis/Hitch run. Even on its own, it’s so unique. Thanks for participating in our giveaway!
