Transmetropolitan #2

Transmetropolitan Book Two collects "Year of the Bastard," Warren Ellis and Darick Robertson's gleefully unhinged vision of a future where gonzo journalism meets political savagery. Darick Robertson's cover puts Spider Jerusalem front and center — shades on, teeth bared, radiating barely contained menace — while a suited political figure looms in the background, setting the tone for the electoral chaos within. With an introduction by Patrick Stewart and a Spin quote calling it "brilliant future-shock commentary," this 2019 DC Vertigo collection makes a compelling case for why Ellis and Robertson's work holds up as sharp, funny, and genuinely provocative.
