Back on the Street

"Transmetroploitan" chronicles the exploits of 21st-century outlaw journalist Spider Jerusalem, who returns to The City after five years of self-imposed exile. As a columnist for The Word, Spider's first subjects are the Transients, humans who have become aliens through surgery. But when he finds himself caught between the Transients and the cops, he'll learn once and for all whether the laptop is mightier than the nightstick.
