Chew #2
This second volume of the acclaimed series continues the adventures of Tony Chu, a cibopathic detective who gets psychic impressions from whatever he eats. As Tony investigates a mysterious chicken-related conspiracy, the story expands its bizarre world with international intrigue and even more outlandish food-based powers. Collects issues #6-10 of the original run.
In "International Flavor, Chapter 1," writer John Layman and artist Rob Guillory kick off a wild, offbeat mystery set in the bizarre world of Yamapalu. When Tony is jailed for the murder of Lin Sae Woo, his uncanny ability to taste secrets leads him—and Chief Kulolo—on a gruesome trail that uncovers a hidden rooster fighting ring and a mysterious chicken named Poyo. As Tony delves deeper, his first taste of Gallasberry marks the beginning of something far stranger than he could have imagined.

The Yamapalu authorities jail Tony under suspicion that he killed Lin Sae Woo. After biting one of his cell mates, Tony shows Chief Kulolo the location of the body the inmate buried. After finding and tasting the dead body, Tony identifies the location of a rooster fighting ring on the north side of Yamapalu. Tony and the Chief raid the gangster's lair and recover Poyo, the fighting chicken. As a "favor" to Tony, the Chief lets him into the morgue so he can "investigate" the remains of Lin Sae Woo. Tony has his first taste of Gallasberry.
