Chew - 3

Here are some more pics from the comic series Chew. The artist is Rob Guillroy. The writer of this series is John Layman.

It is one of the funniest series you will read. it kind of falls into the bizarre category with its story lines and the powers of the characters but it is a great read nevertheless.


in this picture, the top part is the face of the main protagonist of the series. his name is Tony Chu(Get it, chu is his last name and the title of the series is Chew). and the bottom part of the picture is the face of one of the antagonists. there are several antagonists in the entire series and all of them are well written. the main protagonist actually has a weird power. he can have the knowledge about absolutely anything(human beings included and also inanimate objects), what is the catch you might ask? he has to eat it first. Get it? he has to chew and the title of the series is Chew.

here you can see a person locked up in a cage completely Hannibal lecter style. he is also one of the antagonists. it took a while to figure out the identity of this particular villain and capture him. however, after getting captured, he makes appearances in the series. as you can see in this panel, they are not afraid to poke fun at popular pop culture icons. and in the background of this picture, you can see a guy reading something. he also has a significance in the story.

here you can see three characters sitting on a table with something or another in front of them. as i mentioned the power of the main protagonist before, you can see that he is sitting with a finger in front of him. so yeah, this series can get gross from time to time.the person sitting completely opposite to him also has a severed finger on the table. this indicates that the person also has a similar power that matches that of the main protagonist.and the woman sitting in the middle of the table has a weird looking plant in front of her. this is actually a mystery.

POYO. One bad-ass chicken. you do not want to mess with this one. this one is actually a part of the police department task force. he is completely brutal and if you even want to lift a finger in front of this one, you better say good bye to the precious finger of yours. in this picture, we can see that poyo has gone missing. he might be missing, but you do not need to be worried about the well being of the cock. you better pray for the person that crosses the line with him.

in this picture we can see that there are mysterious insignia that can be seen all over the sky. this can mean nothing but ominous signs and something bad is coming to the earth.

Although the story can get wacky from time to time(actually most of the time), I am pretty sure most of the graphic novel readers will enjoy reading this story.
