Synopsis:

"Transmetroploitan" chronicles the exploits of 21st-century outlaw journalist Spider Jerusalem, who returns to The City after five years of self-imposed exile. As a columnist for The Word, Spider's first subjects are the Transients, humans who have become aliens through surgery. But when he finds himself caught between the Transients and the cops, he'll learn once and for all whether the laptop is mightier than the nightstick.

Michael Hockinson, May 11, 2008 (view all comments by Michael Hockinson)
Ellis' masterwork of a violent, bleak and all too plausible postcyberpunk society is as relevant now as it was when Vertigo first published it as a series of 60 comics books between 1997 and 2002. Warren's scathing commentary on politics and consumerism, channeled through his heavily-tattooed alter-ego, journalist Spider Jerusalem, will resonate with the cynic in us all after eight years of "W." Darick Robertson's detailed artwork is the perfect visual match. Funny as hell...in a very dark fashion.
