Chew #12

Rob Guillory's cover for Chew #12 sets a tense, sepia-tinged mood as two armed figures — a shorter man in sunglasses brandishing a pistol and a taller, scruffy man in a military jacket carrying a briefcase — stand back to back against a fiery, smoke-filled cityscape. Looming behind them is the massive, ominous shadow of a bird-like figure with a skull emblem, hinting at dangerous forces in the world John Layman and Guillory have built. "Just Desserts, Part 2 of 5" promises that this five-part arc is well underway and showing no signs of letting up.
