I just finished reading the Austin Grossman novel of that name, and I really enjoyed it. I’m not a big comic book (ok, ok, graphic novel) fan, but this story really grabbed me. It’s about Doctor Impossible, who suffers from Malign Hypercognition Disorder (he’s an evil genius). He escapes his supermax confinement and launches another plot to conquer the world (his 12th), only to be confronted by the superhero team called the New Champions. The whole book delves into the relationships between the members of the super team, the motivations behind the evil genius, etc. A good read.
