This story is a collection of a crossover of a few different Wildstorm comics with emphasis on The Authority, the Wildstorm's version of the JLA or X-men, except they're more aggressive and less apologetic than the super friends. So the theme of the story is what happens when humanity taps into forces beyond their own control? The Authority steps in and decides to take control of the United States of America. Oh yeah, hence the title Coup D'Etat. It's probably one of the most amazing stories I've read in a long time and it deserves some credit for the groundbreaking themes represented in this graphic novels. If you tip toe around the possibility of getting this book, get it because it's not just a story about superheroes, it really makes you think and that said, I highly recommend this book.
