Transmetropolitan #31-Fine (5.5 – 7) Cover By Jaime Hernandez

A self-contained issue featuring a cover by Jaime Hernandez (Love and Rockets, Penny Century) and interior art contributions by THE AUTHORITY's Bryan Hitch, 100 BULLETS' Eduardo Risso, and more. In the aftermath of "Lonely City," an over-medicated Spider is left to brood about his place in the world and turns to the one drug that he's sure will relieve his melancholy: television. But, in Spider's altered state, the horrors of TV seem even worse than usual ? especially when he sees that he's been adopted, defanged and made cuddly by the media. Written by Warren Ellis, regular TRANSMET artist Darick Robertson illustrates this issue's framing sequence, while a surprising array of guest artists provide some truly twisted TV versions of Spider Jerusalem.
