Chew #4
This fourth volume of the acclaimed Image series collects issues #16–20 of Tony Chu's bizarre adventures as a cibopathic detective. The story continues with Chu and his partner John Colby investigating a deadly new food-related threat, while the mystery of the bird flu and the secret behind the FDA's power deepens. Written by John Layman with art by Rob Guillory, this volume maintains the series' signature blend of dark humor, over-the-top violence, and inventive world-building.
"Flambé, Chapter 1" kicks off a wild, offbeat mystery in Chew #4, where the alien sky writing has loosened the FDA's grip on their no-chicken policy. With resources shifting, former agent Tony and Ceasar set out to find Daniel Migdalo, a man who vanished soon after the celestial message appeared. Written by John Layman and illustrated by Rob Guillory—whose distinct art and color work define the series' quirky tone—this issue blends bureaucratic absurdity with a growing sense of unease, all wrapped in a cover by Rob Guillory.
