☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis second omnibus of John Layman and Rob Guillory's acclaimed series collects issues #11-20, continuing the bizarre adventures of Tony Chu, a cibopathic detective who receives psychic impressions from anything he eats. The volume includes the story arcs 'Flambé,' 'Just Desserts,' and 'Sorbet,' as Tony faces new culinary horrors and government conspiracies in a world where chicken is illegal.
In "Just Desserts, 1 of 5," John Layman and Rob Guillory kick off a wild, meaty mystery as two FDA agents—Tony and John—dig into Montero Industries' new chicken substitute, Poultplus. When their investigation leads them to a hidden residence, they uncover a tangled web of deception, with Mason Savoy and Ceasar Valenzano playing dangerous roles in the shadows. With Guillory's sharp art and Layman's clever script, this is a high-stakes, offbeat thriller that starts with a bang and never lets up—cover by Rob Guillory.
