Even the Doctor and Jenny - powerful as they may be - both have been rendered useless by a low level telepath. The Authority rips apart homage teams with brutal ease and everyone thinks "Oh shit, the Authority sure are powerful"... but have failed to take down Stormwatch and even GEN 13. Ask your self what strength feats does Apollo have? What combat speed feats does he have? Virtually none, he has a few flight speed feats... but even Swift has managed to keep up with him. If we are being honest, Apollo is closer to Rogue in power then he is Superman... and he runs out of power faster than a standard AAA battery in a digital camera. And yet people have said that he could hold his own agaisnt Sups for a while? Don't make me laugh. Midnighter? His best strength feat is whacking a guy with a fridge. He has been in a well chair for days after getting his arm and both his legs broken. He has less than half a dozen speed feats (all of which have been replicated or topped by standard streets)... and people aruge he can take Wolverine 8/10 in fight? Which is almost as insane as people thinking that Hawksmoore is a match for Iron-man.... which sadly is also the case.I love Wildstorm and the Authority - I mean - they are no Planetary, or Wildcats but their books are still good. But based on what they've actually accomplished (with the exception of the Doctor and Jenny), they aren't nearly as powerful as KMC makes them out to be.
I made a Mythbuster post about Doctor's telepathic skill. It's the first link in his section in the respect thread. You should read it. Kinda puts your opening point(s) in perspective.
Jenny's vulnerable to telepaths. They even admitted that the fight would've been over in the opening seconds if King hadn't been able to take her mind over and have her fight Doctor. I'm not sure what you're proving by saying Stormwatch didn't get pwned. Take those two out, which they did, and they're fairly well-matched.
As for the rest, you seem to have some sort of irrational hatred for them by trying to attack by using scattered feats that aren't representative of their true power. If I ever work with something beyond the facts, let me know. I rarely, if ever, do. And I'm also of the mind that clearing the moon or destroying a continent-sized space station >>> Rogue, and that an angry, trillion-ton+ fighting metal-and-concrete city >>>> a guy in a metal suit, regardless of how powerful the suit is. You can disagree, it's your choice.
Though I've never backed MN'er vs. Logan. I think Wolverine wins the majority. So don't generalize...there's good points on both sides.
Anyway, that was clearly off-topic. I'd ask you to refrain in the future.
