Description



Book Synopsis



After years of self-imposed exile, cynical journalist Spider Jerusalem is forced to return to a job that he hates and a city that he loathes. Working as an investigative reporter for the newspaper The Word, Spider attacks the injustices of his surreal 21st century surroundings.

Starting with the story "The Scum", Spider Jerusalem learns of the vicious murder of political consultant Vita Severn, one of the few people that he liked. Moving into thrilling stories like "Lonely City" and more--Absolute Transmetropolitan Vol. 2 picks up where Volume 1 leaves off, collecting the exciting stories found in Transmetropolitan #19-39, Vertigo: Winter's Edge #3, and Transmetropolitan: Filfth of the City #1!



About the Author

With over 35 graphic novels in print, Ellis has received numerous honors including the International Horror Guild Award for graphic narrative and being named one of Entertainment Weekly's 100 Most Creative People. Rolling Stone described his work as "more influenced by Jesus and Mary Chain than by the Justice League, while his characters fight for left-wing agendas over God and country, and kick puppies in the street."
