Global Frequency was a 12-issue series written by Warren Ellis, with each issue drawn by a different artist. The series ran from 2002-2004. It follows the story of an organization named Global Frequency (how apropos) that consists of scientists, agents and experts from all over the world that provide their skills to solve crazy emergencies. Each issue is its own self-contained story, with only two characters - the leader of the Global Frequency, and her techie sidekick - that tend to show up in each book.
The issues range from pretty good to really good, and each story and tone is drastically different. I liked the range within the series for the most part, although the extreme variety sometimes fails to keep the whole series tied together cohesively. Luckily, the inventive storytelling was more than enough for me to see the series through to the end.
There was a pilot for a TV series filmed in 2005 that loosely follows the first issue of the comic. It never got green-lighted, but you can find the episode online if you're file-sharing-savvy.
