Description

“Terminal City: Aerial Graffiti Vol 1 #4 (Cover)” (1998) by Mark Chiarello (1960-) 11 x 17 in., acrylic on artboard “Let us see what we can learn of its composition with the reflecting spectrographic vibroscope… shall we?” Terminal City: Aerial Graffiti was a limited series of 5 issues, published by Vertigo, which ran from 1997 until 1998. Cosmo Quinn and the city he calls home picks up six months after “Terminal City” left off. Quinn, "The Human Fly," has resumed his uneventful career as a window washer. But things change, and quickly, when a disgruntled ex-skywriter decides to vent his frustrations in an unusual way, using the skies above Terminal City as a canvas for his "aerial graffiti"--unprintable obscenities that threaten to tarnish the futurist city's finest hour: the opening of the Trans-Atlantic Tunnel connecting Terminal City to Paris. The police ask Cosmo's help in bringing the airborne vandal down to Earth, but there are, of course, complications, as the Mayor has hired an agent of his own--the mysterious lady in red named Monique Rome--to thwart the skywriter.
