"Out Loud" Part 1 of 3. The Smiler is operating on the American Constitution. Civic Center is remaking the City in the image of his New Politics. Some anonymous freak is turning a Print District street into Sniper Alley. And Spider Jerusalem is having black-outs and episodes of mental confusion that are not related to his usual diet of narcotics and whiskey. Things are going very wrong. And they're going to get worse before they get better...if they get better.Transmetropolitan (1997)

Volume Description
Transmetropolitan, Warren Ellis' and Darick Robertson's grand pastiche, follows Spider Jerusalem, neo-gonzo journalist extraordinaire, through the backyards and the rooftops of the future. Ellis's wit is bang on the job, surely at its prime, in all its spitfire, vulgar glory. And the nosedive the series takes somewhere in the middle comes with scary accuracy, becoming a soap box commentary on our generation. Touching everything from anthropomorphism to religion to politics with a cheery sense of dread and disgust in its 60 issue run, and featuring one of the scariest governments post-1984, this is one of Vertigo's imprint-defining titles.
