Publisher’s description

The future is bad for you. In a place where everyone has the technology to create brand new weird sciences ten times a day, there are policemen who will hunt you down for having a bad idea. They're the Silencers. And the investigation of a dead kid with a silicon pentagram on his neck opens up a whole box of bad ideas, in a city that only survives through silence... Originally created and produced in the mid-Nineties, and prefiguring his TRANSMETROPOLITAN in its approach and themes, CITY OF SILENCE was among Warren Ellis' (THE AUTHORITY, PLANETARY) first work for American publishers, and illustrated by Gary Erskine (STAR WARS, HELLBLAZER, OUT FOR BLOOD) immediately after his best-selling PUNISHER/WOLVERINE mini-series. Never before printed, this tech-noir miniseries has waited patiently for the times to catch up with it. But it's finally run out of patience.
