From the acclaimed writer of "The Authority", Warren Ellis, the return of the smash-hit series that managed to shock, move and thought-provoke in one foul swoop! Spider Jerusalem is back in the City, writing again: his subjects this time include the transformation of man into cloud; the grim fate awaiting the 'revivals' brought back from 20th century cryogenic suspension; and the 'reservations', where entire cultures are preserved for eternity. But Spider's past is catching up with him - in the form of a vengeful, frozen ex-wife, a crazed police dog, and the son he never knew he had! Acclaimed writer Warren Ellis ("X-Men") and artist Darick Robertson ("The Boys") invite you back to visit their dysfunctional dystopia!
