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! It's election time, and that's bad news for Spider Jerusalem, the journalist who's returned to a bleakly funny future world from self-imposed exile. On one hand, there's incumbent President and Jerusalem's old bête noire, the Beast; on the other, smiling, vacuous Gary Callahan. Oh, and there's the small matter of Spider's new assistant... and his old one, too!
