Chew #3
This third volume of the acclaimed Image series collects issues #11–15, continuing the adventures of Tony Chu, a U.S. FDA agent with the psychic ability to get psychic impressions from anything he eats. As the bizarre and violent world of food-based powers expands, Tony faces new threats while investigating a deadly conspiracy involving a mysterious chicken substitute. The collection also includes a short story from The Walking Dead #100 and covers the 'Just Desserts' story arc, known for its dark humor and inventive art by Rob Guillory.
In "Just Desserts, Chapter 1," John Layman and Rob Guillory kick off a gripping tale of corporate espionage and hidden identities, as two FDA agents—Tony and John—uncover a web of deception spun by Montero Industries. When a new chicken substitute hits the market, the investigation leads them into a tense showdown with a man thought to be dead, forcing both old allies and new enemies into the open. The story unfolds with sharp pacing and a grounded, character-driven edge, all rendered in Guillory’s distinctive, expressive style, with the cover by Rob Guillory capturing the moment’s intensity.
In "Just Desserts, Chapter 3," Tony and John, FDA investigators, dive into the strange world of Montero Industries, where a new chicken substitute called Poultplus has raised red flags. As their probe leads them to hidden labs and long-buried secrets, they cross paths with Ceasar Valenzano—once an enemy, now a ghost in the machine—and uncover a web of deception that pulls them into a high-stakes game of trust and betrayal.
In "Just Desserts, Chapter 4," Tony’s past comes to light as a flashback reveals the emotional fallout from his relationship with his previous girlfriend, shedding light on his hesitation to fully commit to Amelia. With the FDA closing in on Mason Savoy, the fugitive makes a desperate escape, while Caesar, still feeding him intel, pushes Mason to escalate his campaign against Tony.
In "Just Desserts, Chapter 5" from Chew #3, Tony returns home for Thanksgiving, only to be startled when John shows up unannounced, bringing Amelia with him. As the family gathers for dinner, a sudden crash outside pulls them all outside—where alien skywriting begins to spell out something impossible in the night sky.
