Transmetropolitan

[Rodney-2187]

With the success of Deadpool, I'm hoping studios are looking for more R-rated content to adapt, and hoping further still that someone decided to adapt Transmetropolitan.

Transmetropolitan is a cyberpunk, transhumanist comic book series chronicling the battles of Spider Jerusalem, infamous renegade gonzo journalist of the future, an homage to gonzo journalism founder Hunter S. Thompson. Spider Jerusalem dedicates himself to fighting the corruption and abuse of power of two successive United States presidents; he and his "filthy assistants" strive to keep their world from turning more dystopian than it already is while dealing with the struggles of fame and power, brought about due to the popularity of Spider via his articles.
