Brubaker's run is very good so far, although the entertainment value is a wee bit disposible.
And: I really can't stand Millar's run. Everything that I dislike about him (reductive politics, one-dimensional characters, bad to cheesy dialogue), I found on his run.
Also: Dustin Nguyen is probably the best artist to work on Authority, including Hitch & Quitely.

I can Hitler the Brubaker run, if anyone fancies.

What I'm absolutely stoked about is the thought of Grant Morrison writing this - all the insanity they'd never have let him get away with in JLA in one juicy monthly package.
ps. The reason that I appear, to the casual observer, to be GM's bitch; is that I am.

Has anyone done a story in which they turn out not to know best? That is, they barrel in to some complicated Earth situation, do something decisive, and then realise after the fact that i) they have made the situation worse and ii) the problem is not fixable by someone coming in and kicking someone's arse? This kind of thing is the problem with that whole superheroes-in-the-real-world shtick (which I am amazed people aren't bored of yet, given that it's been a big superhero trope since at least the early 1980s).
The other narrative problem with the Authority is the way they typically kill their enemies, leaving no room for "So Mr Hawksmoor, we meet again" moments.

"But...but... you're DEAD!!!""No, my cigarette-smoking friend, that was Superman Analogue #341. I am Superman Analogue 43-A2! Prepare to DIE!!!" moments...

yeah, but it's all billed as "Amazingly powerful heroes interact with world in away that Superman doesn't". Because Superman isn't annoying.
― DV (dirtyvicar), Monday, 24 April 2006 13:16 (nineteen years ago)
It's the other side of the coin, innit. Superman does the virtuous thing and it always works, The Authority does the unvirtuous thing (within reason) and it always works.

This was pretty much the basis of Brubaker's run.

Authority Vol 2.Apollo was mainly neglected as a character during this run, although the Engineer does reveal to Apollo that she once had sex with The Doctor, something she has never told her lover, Jack Hawksmoor.This also marks the appearance of the infamous canopied four-poster bed. In the most intimate scene between Apollo and The Midnighter yet, the pair wake at dawn in their bed on the Carrier. Some fans found this scene objectionable, especially on account of the canopy.
