Greg Feely is a ""dodgy bachelor"" living a quiet life in London alone with his elderly cat. Everything changes when a strange woman named Miami Nil confronts him.

She informs him that ""Greg Feely"" is actually a ""para-personality""--in effect, a secret identity--and that he is in fact Ned Slade, the top agent for an organization called the Hand, a group of extra-dimensional agents who need Greg/Ned back in action!

From the twisted imagination of Grant Morrison comes a groundbreaking, mind-altering voyage of conspiracies and revelations.

Reviews for The Filth (New Edition)

""The mutant child of Alan Moore, Terence McKenna and Robert Anton Wilson, Morrison has emerged as one of only a handful of comics writers with a true voice and vision. He's as fascinated by paranoid conspiracy theories and the Kabbalah as he is by superhero archetypes. They're all played out in this psychedelic science fiction adventure. Like his best-known works The Invisibles and Doom Patrol, this story follows a subterranean organization with terrifying science at its disposal--but in a break from Morrison's previous works, covert government agency the Hand is actually working to maintain the status quo against the mass hallucinations of a society that needs to dream. Artistic collaborators Weston and Erskine capture this insanity with razor-sharp precision, dead-on characterizations and such memorable vistas as a decaying miniature world and planets covered with machines.""--Publishers Weekly ""Ideal for fans of 'challenging' comics and scifi.""--Booklist
