I was not impressed by Ellis' run either but the only words that can describe Millar's The Authority are probably "pure ignorance".

Mark Millar takes the intelligent, acid and bold superhero story by Warren Ellis and turns it into an edgy cringefest that brings nothing new to the table, contributes barely anything to the Authority lore and turns the characters into massive douchebags just because. The ideas introduced in this book are promising, but their execution is mediocre at best. 1'5, if only because Frank Quitely's artwork is always pretty to look at (even when dealing with Millar's uninspired characters and ideas).
