Transmetropolitan #5

A French collection of Warren Ellis and Darick Robertson's sardonic sci-fi series, this 2023 Urban Comics edition presents "Année Cinq" with a cover showing a manic, shaven-headed Spider Jerusalem — sunglasses on, bowel disruptor blazing an orange beam — crashing through a chaotic cityscape swarming with birds and debris. Robertson's linework crackles with kinetic energy, packing the frame with collapsing architecture, scattered onlookers, and protest signage that perfectly captures the series' anarchic spirit. If you've been following Ellis and Robertson's gonzo journalism odyssey in French, this volume looks like an essential continuation.
