Transmetropolitan #2

Plot

Collects issues #13-24.

In a future where consumerism, superficiality and corruption reign supreme, outlaw journalist Spider Jerusalem has decided to stop sitting idly by and watching the world crumble around him. No one in The City is safe.

Another day in the City. Jerusalem targets three of society's most worshipped and warped pillars: politics, religion, and television. When Spider tries to shed light on the atrocities of these institutions, he finds himself fleeing a group of hit men/kidnappers in possession of his ex-wife's frozen head, a distorted creature alleged to be his son, and a vicious, talking police dog.

Combining black humor, life-threatening situations, and moral ambiguity, Warren Ellis' legendary series is the first look into the mind of an outlaw journalist and the world he seeks to destroy. This new recut trade paperback series features behind-the-scenes material, variant covers and scripts from the graphic novel series run.
