In a somewhat dystopian future filled with scents that record everything and microbes that convert people to other species, a semi-deranged, drug-addicted gonzo journalist returns to the metropolis he once covered with foul-mouthed wit and facts. Quite funny and often disgustingly so, it's a great series. ( ) So fucking awesome! If awesomeness could be condensed into six books, then this would be it! Warren Ellis makes some eye-opening observations through Spider Jerusalem. The one that struck me most was this: There's one hole in every revolution, large or small. And it's one word long -- people. No matter how big the idea they all stand under, people are small and weak and cheap and frightened. It's people that kill every revolution. (Issue 3) He also captures the essence of journalism in a brief but astute conversation: "The point is, the only real tools we have are our eyes and our heads. It's not the act of seeing with our own eyes alone; it's correctly comprehending what we see." "Treating life as an autopsy." "Got it. Laying open the guts of the world and sniffing the entrails, that's what we do." (Issue 4) I've never been so amazed by a comic series. Transmetropolitan is off to a good start! sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

Renegade journalist Spider Jerusalem targets three of society's most worshipped and warped pillars: politics, religion, and television. When Spider tries to shed light on the atrocities of these institutions, he finds himself fleeing a group of hit men/kidnappers in possession of his ex-wife's frozen head, a distorted creature alleged to be his son, and a vicious, talking police dog. Also includes the one-shot Transmetropolitan: I Hate It Here. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
