I intended to only read the first issue or two that this book collects before taking a break, but I ended up reading the entire book in one sitting. Even better than the first volume, and I can't wait to read more. ( )

The first chapter was pretty good, but most of the book is pretty much all noise and no substance. There are far too many unlikeable characters and too much cynicism and emptiness, though there are also some cool moments, and the art is stunningly detailed. Overall, however, it's a book that thinks it's much cooler than it really is. ( )

This is still pretty decent, but I'd still rather re-read The Authority. This of course is done from a different slant. The superhuman carnage here is orchestrated by a right wing military, and Captain America is all gung-ho about it to the point of parody. Thor, however, is a hippie greenie, and is not.

The first few issues did the impossible—got me all choked up about Captain America. The rest of the book did the easy—made me go back to not giving a damn.
