    In Transmetropolitan where they can lab grow whatever they want, I think one of Spider Jerusalem’s favorites was polar bear eyes.

      We even see a Long Pork food stand in the background in one issue. If I remember correctly, it was even advertising that they use 100% cloned meat.

        Wasn’t it a major plot point that people meant for consumption were instead being used as sex slaves? (Been a long time - I literally read the series when I was 10. Not the best parenting decision there)

          i don’t remember that bit, but i’ve only read all the way through it once, and that was a long while ago.

          I don’t remember it being a major plot point, but I feel like something got brought up at one point after the Beast arc? Might have been in one of the odd-ball collections, or I might be mixing things up myself. Been a minute for me, too. Guess I know what’s coming up after my Spawn/Darkness/Witchblade read-throughs.
