Morrison splits the issue between a Present and a Past section, and by the end of this Present section his script engaged me enough to want to know more.

For Morrison's part, the story is accessible, but surprisingly sappy.
Morrison does a good job when it comes to letting new readers in on the heroes' powers, and his plot captures the larger-than-life nature of the Authority's activities and the threats they oppose on a routine basis.

 Graphitti Designs Presents... NEWSARAMA - CHAOS COMICS AUCTION PAPERWORK FILED
Robbie Morrison is fairly new to most of the American comic book scene, having written a smattering of projects and anthologies for Dark Horse, Marvel before taking the helm of WildStorm's Authority.
Robbie writes some of the meanest comics around but is in person, a very affable, easy going creator who can drink Tequila with the best of 'em.
Robbie Morrison: Hold on now - when you say meanest, you're talking in terms of writing tough, gritty, no-holds-barred-fiction and aren't talking in terms of money or anything like that, are you?

 Wildcats: Nemesis #1 Review - Silver Bullet Comics
Call me stupid, but when I saw the name "Morrison" on the cover of this comic, I thought it was written by Grant Morrison.
But I think the reason I expected Grant Morrison to be writing this comic is that I just couldn't see any reason for releasing a new Wildcats series unless a big name was at the helm.
But here it is. The Wildcats are back, written by some dude named Robbie Morrison and drawn, in the first half, in a style approximating the series's early Image days, and in the second half, drawn in a kind of uninked style reminiscent of a cartoon without a lot of fl lines.

 Review: Wildcats: Nemesis #1
The story by Robbie Morrison is so-so; it’s nothing we haven’t seen a thousand times before.
I’m actually quite fond of Morrison’s work in 2000 AD, but here it’s just another super-powered throwdown with stakes so vague that they’re nonexistent (they fight because they’re enemies — ha ha!).
There’s really nothing of note to mention, other than the first half takes place in the (relative) present, and then halfway through it inexplicably jumps to the past for the rest of the issue with no segue whatsoever.

 2000 AD Graphic novels, collections and trade paperbacks
Robbie Morrison and Simon Fraser put far more research and behind-the-scenes work into this strip than was typical for series at the time, with vibrant results.
Fraser's art is simply amazing, and he uses an incredibly detailed sense of design and feel for architecture to ground the strip in a world all its own - this is no generic "future" world, it's emphatically Russia in the 27th Century, with each location breathing its own atmosphere.
Morrison and Fraser populate this world with a remarkably vivid cast of amazing characters.
