Warren Ellis' Bad Signal, Volume 2

From Warren Ellis, the creator of PLANETARY and TRANSMETROPOLITAN, comes one of the internet's most influential commentaries on comic books, culture, and beyond. Warren Ellis' e-mail column "Bad Signal" shows that he is a modern master of the short form essay, as his biting wit makes even the most esoteric of topics into must-read material. By his own admission, BAD SIGNAL is Warren Ellis on the move, emptying his head of thoughts and shoving them into a handheld computer with a wireless modem plugged into it, so that he can instantly bug four thousand people with useless e-mail from public toilets all over the world. This second volume collects his humorous and insightful columns from 2002-2003.

Continuing the series, this graphic novel features the latest Bad Signal columns profusely illustrated with dozens of stunning new illustrations by celebrated artist Jacen Burrows.
