james_desantis 's review for:
Transmetropolitan, Vol. 4: The New Scum
by Warren Ellis
The new scum...well Warren, this title didn't age well for what's happening to you, huh buddy?
All bullshit aside because I'm reviewing the actual story/art here, not the (scumbag behavior of the writer) and there's a lot of good here.
Spider is now dealing with the aftermath of the death of someone he actually liked. With that, he goes for the two trying to become president. Gets a nice look into both of their views. Guess what? They're both scumbags. Similar to most of our presidents. However, the biggest takeaway is Spider is pushed into a corner, which one is worse? On top of that, we get some really funny moments with the two ladies.
Overall, this is still really fun to read. The art is fantastic. The situations are interesting. Spider is NEVER dull. I really am enjoying myself. The series is somewhat tainted by recent acts of Ellis but I can't deny I'm enjoying this read a lot.
A 4 out of 5.
