Transmetropolitan Vol. 10: One More Time (New Edition) by Warren Ellis

5.0

I am incapable of writing this review without spoilers. So, be warned.

Thank you, Mr. Ellis. Thank you for giving Spider the best possible outcome that fucker could ever deserve. In the sun, his ladies doting on him as he tinkers in his garden, quiet and at peace. Not dead. Not dying, but living, on his terms in his own time, like the glorious bastard he is.

Incredibly satisfying wrap up as the baddies fall and the good guys STAY ALIVE!

The back half of this volume includes a sampling of Spider's columns. Funny and painful and insightful, beautifully written, I would follow his writing anywhere, any when, were he a real person.

Spider is my hero, I wish I'd read these back when I was majoring in journalism. I did okay with my column in the school paper, but now I know I could have done better. I keep my pair of red and green geometric glasses in my jewelry box, even knowing my amply curvy girl bod will never be able to cosplay them.

Read during the October 2015 24-hour Read-a-thon.
