From the author of Y: The Last Man comes a comic series that is a little less epic but, in a way, might be more enjoyable.

Mitchell Hundred – not that dissimilar from the protagonist of Y in his struggles to be GOOD and his near godlike ability not to abuse the inherant power in his situation – suddenly finds that he has dominion over machines. He is a second-rate vigilante until 9/11/01 when he is able to save the second tower from destruction. He suddenly finds himself mayor of New York on an independent ticket – and then the real trouble begins. Best way to pitch is DC comics meets The West Wing – but hardcore New York. The series is about halfway through its run.
