The great Warren Ellis has quietly become one of the most important comic book voices of his generation. He has the talent and gravitas of his contemporaries like Alan Moore or Grant Morrison, but also a gruff charm and plainspokenness that makes him more accessible. The Ellis bibliography ranges from high concept (“Transmetropolitan”) to superhero […]
