Few works of fiction capture the true essence of gonzo as it was pioneered by Hunter S. Thompson quite like the Vertigo Comics series Transmetropolitan by Warren Ellis and Darick Robertson. The series follows a journalist named Spider Jerusalem who is a pretty clear Hunter S. Thompson analogue. Jerusalem lives in The City where he writes a column for the newspaper The Word that’s titled “I Hate It Here”. The column focuses on his perception of modern day life as it exists in this futuristic, transhumanist, cyberpunk landscape.
