A little while back, the comic book world caught an absolute fever. All for a creator-owned series from Image Comics called CHEW, which happened to have a particularly bizarre premise (as you’ll read below). And as columnist Jim Martin said a few months ago, "This is just a fun series with an odd premise. It is half comedy, half detective story and all fun. If you haven’t heard about this book then you are asleep at the switch." So wake up! The fifth volume in the series comes out on Wednesday!

His daughter Olive has been kidnapped for the exact same reason. Two kidnappers, two captives, and two very different outcomes. Presenting fifth storyline of the New York Times Best Selling, Harvey and multiple Eisner Award-winner series about cops, crooks, cooks, cannibals, clairvoyants – and kidnappers! |

Strange writing in extraterrestrial script has appeared in the skies of Planet Earth-and stayed there.
