I went through a Rick Veitch phase like a decade ago. Read Army@Love, Bratpack, Maximortal, that Aquaman run...
Bratpack felt edgy for edginess's sake. It might have been subversive and had something new to say as a deconstruction of the superhero genre when it was published, but books like Watchmen and The Boys have done it better.
Easton Price
As a huge fan of the Boys I would say it blurs the line between deconstruction and parody, veering more towards parody even.

i heard about it, look weird tho

I read it two days ago for the first time while on the crapper.
I liked how blatantly, stupidly depressing it was.
It was fun, yet needlessly tragic.
The female sidekick was great fap material though.
Maximortal sucked ass though.
Blake Bailey
As usual with Veitch, the ending was unintelligible.
Owen Hall
It was basically just ugly for the sake of being ugly. "What if all of those jokes about Superheroines being sluts, superheroes being steroidal or stoners, and kid sidekicks being gay were REAL?"
Everything it tried to do has been done before, better, and with a better storyline.
Adrian Cooper
Where?
Hunter Garcia
I prefer the original ending.

Do you want the "Superheroes are all corrupt degenerate scumbags" bit? Go for The Boys or Marshall Law.
Do you want the "Superheroes are ineffectual at best and do damage at worst" bit? Watchmen or probably Kickass.
