Pulling anything from The Invisibles is just plain cheating. Anything Grant Morrison wrote, really.
That’s why I went with a tamer panel.
Dude is one asymmetric pair of glasses from Spider Jerusalem
Thank you for this. I saw a picture of Spider Jerusalem on a counter culture flyer over a decade ago and couldn’t find the source (I wanted those sweet glasses). When I read Invisibles I assumed I found it and it must’ve been Mob from some promo or alt art.
It was definitely Spider Jerusalem, I found the glasses, and now I get to read Transmetropolitan.
Enjoy! It’s really good.
Ah. “Scramble the mantras” must be code for big time fucking up peoples’ guts, then
I was thinking the same thing
Even closer than that to being King Mob from The Invisibles.
Edit: based on what other people have posted, it is King Mob. I’ll see myself out.
Maybe it depends on whether Grant Morrison intended this to be funny…?
…or would it depend on whether King Mob thought this was funny? 😱 Fuck, you’re giving me Invisibles PTSD Flashbacks
In context, it is a straightforward, accurate explanation. Mob is just filling him in on simple facts.
“simple facts”
Strange, but simple
I mean, getting shot in the throat has a way of doing that.
I suppose in a sense our life is a trance, traveling forward through time, and the coordinated nervous rhythms of our vital organs are “mantras” that maintain it.
“You mean the revolver, sir?”
