Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Mood music'Right now, there is a new religion invested in the City every thirty-five minutes. And yet, strangely, flame-throwers are still illegal. There is no balance in this place.' This is a selection of Spider Jerusalem's columns. As another reviewer has observed, it's been published before so beware. Also probably not a good idea to misunderstand the 'volume 0' tag and read it before you've read the volumes 1 to 10 - firstly because you won't understand half of it, and secondly because it contains more than a few spoilers. But a real treat if you're already familiar with Spider. Oh, and don't miss the walk-on appearance by another of Ellis's creations on page 44. Rating: - 'All fall down.''All news services in the city are currently occupied by troops from the Martial Law detatchment. And now, footage of them killing unarmed students' Chapter 10. End of the road for everyone. The conclusion of this fabulous story arc will leave you amazed, shocked, saddened and utterly satisfied. If it was a movie you'd be on your feet cheering and then chewing your fingernails to the bone - all within a few moments. No spoilers here - buy it and read it. Now. Rating: - Endgame begins...'I feel a bout of monstering coming on..' Spider's on borrowed time and still has a presidency to bring down. As usual, Ellis takes us through a dreadful situation without playing on any mawkish sentiment - his characters don't want our sympathy. At the same time, the sense of urgency running through the book is palpable, and we never get to forget it, whether the story is in high-action mode, dealing with dark conspiracies or just keeping us laughing.. Rating:  - Let down in a big wayI have every square inch of Transmetropolitan published in trade paperback form. All of the story, plus "I hate it here" and "Filth of the city" (the two supplementals containing Spiders vitriollic writing) Imagine how exited I was to see that a third supplemental was published. I pre-booked it and sat by my letter box with a puppy-dog expression on my face. When it arrived, I ripped open the packaging only to find that "Tales of human waste" is merely "I hate it here" and "Filth of the city" re-published in one book with no new material whatsoever! I'm a little upset they would expect me to pay for something I already have. On the flipside, if you do not already possess the two earlier books, then I would heartily recommend it. Rating: - Doesn't let you downThis is the final piece of the Transmet jigsaw. I cannot tell you what happens as it will ruin your enjoyment of the book. All I can tell you is that Spider and the Smiler do finally have it out. Spider is still just as bad as you expect, his filthy assistants are still just as bad and there is still corruption everywhere. There is no sense of anticlimax after reading this - buy it now. The filthy monkey wrote it - now you need to buy it! 10/10  Try searching the Internet for "Transmetropolitan: The Cure (Transmetropolitan)" or Ebay for "Transmetropolitan: The Cure (Transmetropolitan)".
