4.0

I was astonished when I've found this book: how can you create something inside one of the most revolutionary superhero comics out there? Yet this book accomplishes this and more, using only the first issues of the comics! I love all-in-ones, and this gives you everything: the detailed world of the Authority, a very vast cadre of super powers at world-shattering levels, a very nice and detailed look on superheroes (better to say super powered beings in a world so gray). The book itself is lavishly equipped with tons of comic panels from the series, which is fantastic to get the look and feel for players who haven't read the series. My only complaint is the system: easy to manage at the beggining, but with each turn it complicates exponentially.
