Intelligent social commentary (in regards to the standard superhero archetype), action-packed, and full of hilarious dry-wit - it's a winning combination. Unfortunately, the research shows that's as far as Team Achilles got before it became too satirical for its own good, so I think I'll stick with just this first volume. Still, having regular humans just using their wits and real-life tactics and equipment subvert the violence-glorifying superheroes-without-consequences is fun for at least this much - my favorite line, after a soldier breaks a superhero's arm: "You're...using...super...powers..."
