He made it fun instead of the "guise this comic is for adults. Seriously guise! Stop laughing! Hank just beat up his wife! Comics are serious business guise!" that Millar made it. I honestly don't know how anyome can stand his work from 2002 and up. Even when he quit adding edge for edge sake his books were incredibly boring. Starlight started great, but by issue 3 I was done. Even my favorite of that period, Superior, has aged horribly.
EDIT: I recently started reading Garth Ennis comics, before that I had never really seen edge done properly and even then sometimes he does it for the sake of being edgy. My point is Ultimates isn't a very good comic to begin with and has aged even worse.
EDIT 2: I apologize, I didn't mean to be so negative
