Series: Transmetropolitan (#6)
Ahhh yes, another excellent entry from Mr. Ellis. I was, I admit, a bit concerned at first that I'd become desensitized to the maniac glory that is this series... but he proved me wrong soon enough. Indeed, the character development continues to excel, the story continues to engage, and above all ...
The sixth book in the series. I know it's well reviewed and a dystopia but I just couldn't get into it. Seems predictable - Spider rants and abuses himself, finds some great injustice, hunts out the culprit, exposes them, case closed.Love dystopias, but when they become routine it's time to move on....
After Spider finds out the new running president is out to shit on the world. He only has one choice wipe him out. Callahan wins easily and Spider finds out hes part of Vita`s murder.Second Issue was boring but the last one literally goes out with a BANG! Next volumes 7-10 (revised)
