Bite. For your right. To party.

Despite my best efforts, Chew still seems to be a title without much hype on Scans_Daily. Considering that I'm trade-waiting, that's not such a bad thing.

However, the most recent issue of Chew was where I made an exception and picked up the single issue. You see, this issue is from Spring 2012.

Chew #27 is part 2 of the not-yet-begun Space Cakes arc and follows on from #18 and sets up for #19 in no real way at all.

The premise is largely the same: There's an agent of a US government group, investigating strange stuff and is themselves a bit strange. Except this time we're following Toni Chu of NASA, twin sister of Tony Chu of the FDA.



There's a lot of stuff in #27 that's a call back to other bits of Chew, Toni speaking to Tony in his hospital bed instead of Tony speaking to Colby, Toni's uptight boss who secretly loves her replaces Tony's uptight boss who openly hates him and loves Colby, Toni's observatory is not too different from the one in #4, but with fewer llamas and more frogs. Plus, there's chogs! Lots of chogs.

If only I didn't have to wait about a year for #28 to come out, since this ended on a cliffhanger
