Where it came from
The Establishment was a short-lived comic book series published by WildStorm under the DC Comics imprint in 2001 and 2002. Created by writer Ian Edginton and artist Charlie Adlard, the series was designed as a satirical, high-concept successor to the superhero genre, focusing on a shadowy, clandestine organization that managed the world's meta-humans. It emerged during a period of experimentation within the WildStorm line, aiming to blend political intrigue with the kinetic energy of contemporary action comics.
Issue #7 serves as a mid-series installment, continuing the narrative arc where the secret handlers struggle to maintain control over an increasingly chaotic world. Charlie Adlard’s gritty, cinematic illustration style was intended to ground the outlandish concepts in a stark, realistic aesthetic, contrasting sharply with traditional colorful superhero tropes. While the series garnered modest critical praise for its cynicism and sharp writing, it struggled to find a lasting audience and concluded its run after thirteen issues.
