Possibly second only to Alan Moore in the realm of superhero deconstruction is god damn Mark Millar (I say possibly merely because Mark has done so many more decon stories than Moore). The Ultimates, Kick-Ass, Civil War, Superman: Red Son, and even other **** I haven't read yet, such as The Authority, are some of the best comics, superhero deconstruction or not, that I have ever read (alright, I've only read a bit of Civil War, but still). I am now reading Wanted, and it is awesome.
Mark Millar is the ****ing **** and superhero deconstruction is his bitch.
