Synopsis

From the twisted imagination of white-hot comics creator Warren Ellis, comes the second volume of his magnum opus, Transmetropolitan - and the insanity continues! Spider Jerusalem is back on the street, writing again: his subjects this time include the transformation of man into cloud; the 'revivals' brought back from 20th century cryogenic suspension, and the hellish time they have in the future; and the reservations, where entire cultures are preserved for eternity. But Spider's past is catching up with him - in the form of a vengeful, frozen ex-wife, a crazed police dog, and the son he never knew he had! Warning: Adults Only!

About this title

Review:

"Warren Ellis and Darick Robertson take a Hunter S. Thompson analogue and put him through a 23rd century wringer. It's angry political sci-fi and it's funny as hell."

From the Back Cover:

Spider Jerusalem, the most outragious and in-your-face journo ever to hit the mean streets, returns with more rants about life, love and lust, television, politics and religion. The thing about Spider, he's the ultimate in equal opportunity reporting ... he just hates everything.

This time, Spider finds himself on the run from hitmen and kidnappers who have his ex-wife's frozen head, a misshapen creature claiming to be his son and a talking police dog who wants to rip him to pieces. All in a day's work really!
