like i said before, this is subject to change as i read more of the authority. i'm only at coup d'etat rn so i'll update as i know more. but here's the general idea for my wildstorm to dc the authority transfer:

so it's the end of world's end, and with nothing else they can do, all of the authority pile into the carrier and see a somehow alive but injured jenny working on getting the carrier up and running while everything is crumbling outside. she gets the carrier up for a second and uses ton of her power to jump them all to a different universe (which unknowingly dragged all the other wildstorm characters with them). the price however, was aging her back to eight at how much power was used. with this, they now slot into this universe as they didn't exist in this one before this moment.

so they're plopped into dc universe! for anyone looking for specifics, they arrive in the era of tim drake being a robin for teen titans, not long before the whole y'know.. titans tower thing. new year's eve, 2005. why this time specifically? i have great plans and jenny is gonna have some big importance at that.

the carrier isn't present when they're sent because they're hiding from all the tons of new things of this earth, still needing repair but staying out of sight. they'll go repair the carrier later don't worry! gotta hide from the watchtower though so this is why.

now in a new world, they split up not only to figure out what's in this new world but midnighter and apollo both agree to finding a place and using this second chance to give jenny a peaceful childhood. they get an apartment in san francisco (hi titans tower i can see you there) and jenny and apollo stay there because apollo is just too glowy to do reconnaissance.

engineer sets up a sort of base to explore the new technology at her disposal as she tries to hunt down the carrier and is who gives them all cellphones that they can communicate with to be safe in case anything new here can tap into radiotelepathy.

hawksmoor goes off on his own to heal his hurt to see all the cities of this earth, including new ones they didn't have.

swift goes off to explore how the animals and flying in this new world is, seeing new species and happily getting to see those that she worried wouldn't be in a different earth.

doctor goes off to explore the new magic of this earth, re-establishing his connection to the garden of ancestral memories to now be of this earth. he takes time to mourn and reflect on failure of losing their earth and like everyone else on the team, vows to not let that happen to this one.

what's midnighter doing? well besides spending a large chunk of time settling in with his lovely husband and daughter, he grumbles and has to go and do reconissance in a city too: gotham. not to worry, he's calling his lovely husband with updates on how he's doing and gets to hear how they're doing from his bedazzled by jenny flip phone with hello kitty keychain.

he keeps to himself for the most part but encounters someone who catches his lurking who at first mistakes him for batman... nightwing.

at this time all the other wildstorm characters arrive confused as fuck how they're on an earth that isn't dead and how they aren't too, which this messing with universal stuff and time has got speedsters on high alert.

the future stuff would explore how their presence alters the timeline (no n52 and rebirth things will seep through but will be different because there's no reset thanks to jenny saves the world!), what would happen upon the justice league discovering their presence, and so much more! jenny with her age would also join damian, jon and other heroes that age and create a new era of heroes team just for them. the time issues would also allow the chance for apollo and midnighter to discover more about what happened during their time at stormwatch but they'd have to choose whether they want to see it or accept it.

they remain their chaotic neutral/good structure, but really only come together to help on the big stuff like world ending or multiversal issues. otherwise, they kinda just.. are retired or doing specific things (ex: stopping experimentation on people, especially kids).

not to worry though, midnighter and apollo both still will sponsor pride events like in n52 as will the rest of the team, and they sponsor other things! midnighter and apollo also renew their wedding vows for anniversary.
