Apr 12, Fred rated it it Chew: Vol.3 amazing. Aug 20, Keith rated it really liked it. More things! More death! More Poyo! I think I liked this volume slightly better than the last one because there's a lot of Poyo in it. But all the volumes are good; it's a strong series -- maybe a little rote at this point, but it's probably not bad when being rote consists of being really good. For some reason I feel like John Layman is kind of a putz, though. I don't know why. Jul 26, Alya AlShaibani rated it it was Chew: Vol.3 Shelves: favoritesgraphic-novels-comic-books.

I thought the series Chew: Vol.3 done! I was wrong!! Chew: Vol.3 16, Matt Smith rated it really liked it Shelves: comicsread-in The reason this volume in particular stands out for me is that the 7th chapter came out well before the Chew: Vol.3 of the entire volume. In the original run of Chew issue 27 came out between issues 18 and 19 of the series, some ten months Chew: Vol.3 because Layman knew what that issue was going to be and thought it slotted in really nicely as a good introduction of Antonelle Toni Chu. I think this is Chew: Vol.3 reason I gravitated so hard to Toni Chew: Vol.3 the original run, and reading what comes Chew: Vol.3 this the Chew I The reason this volume in particular stands out for me is that the 7th chapter came out well before the rest of the entire volume. I think this is the reason I gravitated so hard to Toni in the original run, and reading what comes after this the Chew I remember in lucid waved Toni's presence or lack Chew: Vol.3 carries a strong weight through the entire Chew: Vol.3 of the series as far as I can tell. She's a phenomenal character, and taking an entire arc away from Tony while he recuperates from the events of "Major League" to have five issues of fun and frolic with Toni I find that I enjoyed it so much more here than I did in the initial reading. Unsure what this has to say about Tony, but I always appreciate when a series goes off and explores some ancillary adventure that sidebars the main players. And it's weird. In the first half I complained about slowness, wasting my time with explaining Tony's powers, etc. But by the end there's such an insane economy of storytelling, it's wicked fast and terribly dense, but I don't feel robbed of any sort of Maybe this is Layman learning; I'll find out soon enough. It's crazy to be halfway through this series already, but it's odd that it's only with this volume that the Chew I remember crystalizes. Even though Tony spends the entirety of this volume Chew: Vol.3 on Chew: Vol.3 periphery, this is the volume that has the guy who creates weapons out of chocolate, starts to introduce the intrigue Chew: Vol.3 Olive, and paints a larger picture as to where this series seems to be going. And of course, Toni. I love Toni. Nov 06, Sarah rated it liked it. The main story about the Cibopath Agent Chu in the FDA after the chicken apocalypse is brilliantly absurd and super fun! Main characters are well written and the plot line is more Chew: Vol.3 less in constant development. Sadly the series as a whole is somewhat difficult to read due to psychedelic trips into nonsense. The first 40ish isues of Chew are just excellent ranging from 4 to 5 stars - but around vol 8 the absurdist side stories about devilish cyberneticly enhanced fda animal agents takes the So. Jun 30, Adam Spanos Chew: Vol.3 it it was amazing Chew: Vol.3 image. I still can't get enough of the story or the artwork in CHEW. The CHEW universe expands in this volume. We get more characters and more complex relationships between the already established characters. Volume one introduced Chew: Vol.3 to the world. Volume two took Chew: Vol.3 on a nice tropical adventure unless Chew: Vol.3 vampire ate you. But volume three shows there's way more to Chew: Vol.3 story than we've seen. Chew: Vol.3 12, Fritz Villanueva rated it liked it. I kinda see its charm now. Just like those 90's cartoons where you think the premise is weird enough already but the episodes or in this case the arcs get much more weirder and goofy. There is a Chew: Vol.3 plotline or big picture but the smaller details dont make that much sense, in a whimsical kind of way- Chew: Vol.3 is not a bad thing at all. The art style is also weirdly Chew: Vol.3 of 90's to early 00's cartoons and matches the story perfectly. Oct 11, David rated it it was amazing Shelves: graphic-novels. The best Chew yet.

For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] Chewing in the name of justice: the taste of law in action Abstract The first issue of John Layman and Rob Guillory’s Chew was released in June 2009 by Image Comics at a time when the American comic book market was so dominated by stories written within the superhero genre that ‘comic books and superheroes [had] almost become synonyms’ (Rhodes 2008: 6). Within this superhero market, Chew was remarkably not a comic book about a superhero. Instead, Chew is a New York Times bestselling, Eisner award-winning series about Tony Chu, a Chinese- American cibopath. As a neologism created by the comic’s authors, cibopathy describes the ability to receive psychic impressions from whatever one eats. Although Chu has this extraordinary ability, he does not have a secret identity, a costume, an origin story or a mission to save the world from evil. Instead, Tony works as a detective for the American Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in a possible future where the FDA has become the most powerful government agency in the world.

    An Annotated Bibliography by Jack Baur and Amanda Jacobs-Foust with Carla Avitabile, Casey Gilly, Jessica Lee, Holly Nguyen, JoAnn Rees, Shawna Sherman, and Elsie Tep May 17th, 2012 Table of Contents Introduction 2 Young Readers 3 Middle School 7 High School 14 Older Teens 22 Prepared by BAYA for the California Library Association 1 Introduction It’s no secret that comics (or “graphic novels,” if you prefer) are hot items in the library world these days. Oh, we’ve known that for years, but recently publishers have been getting into the game in a big way. Too big, arguably. As publishers struggle, it seems like more and more they are turning to graphic novels as new revenue streams, to diversify existing properties, or as ways to repackage old content. With the deluge of titles coming at us, it’s becoming increasingly difficult for a librarian who isn’t deeply invested in their GN collection or tuned into the world of comics publishing to discern the excellent titles from the merely popular, and the quality from the... well, crap. And oh there’s a lot of crap out there these days... But there’s a whole lot of great stuff, too. Comics are a wonderful and unique medium, which allow any kind of story or instruction to be delivered in a way that is fun, engaging, and accessible. Just like other storytelling forms, the content can be simple and amusing, or it can be deep and challenging. It’s no surprise that comics are seeing such a jump in popularity and acceptance now.

  • Chewing with Your Mouth Eyes Open: Food & Graphic Novels
    Proposal Title: Chewing with Your Mouth Eyes Open: Food & Graphic Novels Proposal Description (495/500 words): The medium of the graphic novel has evolved from the medium of the comic book. Today, graphic novels can be compilations derived from parts (or all) of a serialized comic book arc, or a stand-alone longer form that encapsulates a single narrative story. Although the medium has struggled historically with a reputation for providing juvenile, simplistic, popular or lowbrow stories, recent scholarship has shown that graphic novels can provide readers with unique and complex texts. As Brian W. Sturm writes, “Reading graphic novels is a very complex process that combines decoding what is provided in the text and pictures with filling in the gaps in the story left by the author and illustrator” (58). Graphic novels push readers to simultaneously interpret what is pictured and what is written; additionally, the reader must actively interpret or imagine parts of the story that are not directly described or illustrated. It is these gaps in narration, placed alongside potentially meaningful fragments of text and evocative illustrations, that create the graphic narrative. Unlike film, graphic novels don’t have to produce believable visual effects. Art can be bizarre or whimsical, and events can take place in the gutters between images. Indeed, the graphic novel format requires active participation by the reader; she must study visual images, read textual inserts, and successfully combine these visual and textual pieces in order to enjoy the story. Indeed, as Paul A. Crutcher has noted, graphic novels “can provide unique complexity not found in prose-based novels and traditional films” (53).

  • Book Club Reading List.Indd
    GRAPHIC NOVEL BOOK CLUBS READING LIST • 2014–2016 Toucan art by Rick Geary In 2014, Comic-Con International: San Diego in partnership with the San Diego Public Library, embarked on an ambi- tious project to start a series of Graphic Novel Book Clubs in some of the local branches around the greater San Diego area. Two branches started in 2014, one at the Downtown Central Library location and one at the Mission Valley branch. In 2015, additional groups were added to both the North Park and La Jolla branches. Over the past 3 years, the branches have read over 75 separate graphic novels (and graphic novel series). We’ve compiled this combined reading list showing everything that was read from 2014 through the end of 2016. Some books were “All- Group Selections,” meaning all four groups got together to discuss one book. Multiple volume-reads, usually taking place over more than one meeting, are also highlighted, as are books that were Eisner Award winners (see the key below for an explanation of the symbols accompanying each book in this list). What have we learned? Well, people LOVE comics! Surprisingly, some of our book club members had never read a comic book or graphic novel until they joined their book clubs! They had gone to Comic-Con and were fascinated by what they saw there, and when the opportunity arose, they joined the club. For the most part over the past three years, our book club membership has remained constant, with very few people leav- ing. The clubs meet every month, with a holiday party in December that combines all of them and includes the reading of the above-mentioned “All-Group Selection.” What has grown out of these clubs is a sense of community—some might even call it family—within the various clubs.

  • BOOKS to GET YOU STARTED VERSION 2.0 • 2015 If You’Re a Comics Fan, You Know Compiling a Reading List of Graphic Novels for a Book Club Is a Daunt- Ing Task
    GRAPHIC NOVEL BOOK CLUBS BOOKS TO GET YOU STARTED VERSION 2.0 • 2015 If you’re a comics fan, you know compiling a reading list of graphic novels for a Book Club is a daunt- ing task. With 75+ years of amazing stories and art, the comics medium is filled with absolute trea- sures. The staff of Comic-Con International got together and came up with a list of their favorite graphic novels. We hope that the books on this list, which we stress is just a starting point, will make for great discusssions. As a side note, we originally intended a list of 20 books; we stopped at 60, and could have easily continued. We think this list showcases the incredible diversity of comic books and graphic novels and the genres they embrace. We have selected books that are still in print; some of them are available in digital form via Kindle and comiXology. See the individual books in this listing for that availability. UPDATE: We’ve added 20 new suggestions for 2015! As with most book clubs, you, the members, will pick the books your group reads. If you have a favorite graphic novel you’d like to suggest—and maybe even moderate—at a future club meeting, please bring your suggestion and a copy of the book (If you have it) to a club meeting. It doesn’t have to be on this list. Make your case for your favorite book and if your fellow members agree, we’ll read it and discuss it at an upcoming meeting! Please see page 11 of this list for local resources (comic and book stores) that may carry the books we suggest for consideration for discussion.
