Quote: Wonder Boy said: While I think I'd like to check out the Millar issues, I'm repulsed by the level of over-the-top violence and cynicism in many of the books that pass for "realism" in comics over the last 15 years or so.
I wouldn't consider The Authority as having over-the-top violence. Which issues/moments are you basing this on? As for cynicism, I'd say exactly the opposite. The entire idealogy of the group is in fact one of progressive optimism: Improve the world.
