dromoman reviewed Transmetropolitan #8 May 17, 2020
8.0

A standalone story in the series as Ellis explores the silliness of cryogenics (a real thing!) with a serious rather than mocking tone. Spider Jerusalem sums it up in last page as he chucks away a smoking joint after some thought into a clearly ridiculous futuristic idea but people are still looking for fountains of youth.

Transmetropolitan #8

By: Warren Ellis, Darick Robertson

In the self-contained "Another Cold Morning," Spider Jerusalem, outlaw journalist, walks with the Revivals--people who have come out from cryogenic freeze into a world they don't understand, clinging to life in a city that has forgotten them completely.

Marvel steals 'Batman: Year One' from Miller and Marzuchelli at first but this series later spins out of control as Fraction and Aja tries to also steal from Hernandez bro's Love and Rockets and Chris Ware.Good read nevertheless.
