Branching Out My Reading Radius - Comics

Please visit Outlaw Colony my new message board it's a fun site for fun people.
Crossgen is a good place to start, most of their stuff is collected in TPBs so you can catch up for fairly cheap.
Sandman is awesome, probably the best, you don't mind horror with a fantasy slant do you?
Exiles from Marvel is good and is collected in TPB
Daredevil from Marvel Knights is good and in TPB

Please tell me it's the first series with Jenny Sparks as the team leader, and not the new, terrible one.
All you really need to know is that some of the members of The Authority were part of Stormwatch (a UN-run superhero team) before it was shut down due to lack of funding. The Authority are the most powerful superhero team in the world, and possibly the universe, though this gets tested pretty much every story arc. Otherwise, it seems to have very little to do with the rest of the Wildstorm universe, save for the WildCATS crossover that led to the end of Stormwatch.
