Chew

[Gabriel Diaz]

Is anyone reading this? It's HYSTERICAL and original, i love it!

[Dave Barton]

Amazing title.  I was eagerly awaiting it on my pull list for the longest time, and it has yet to disappoint.

I'm very pleased by the success it's had too.  Nice to see a new idea getting so much support.

[Gabriel Diaz]

It's a fun title and very off beat. You gotta love something that just laughs at alot of the ways that stories are told. I'm thrilled for it

You guys heard this is going to be adapted into a television show, right? I don't know anything about Chew, but I hear that it is pretty good. I hope the show will be just as good. Stephen Hopkins is going to be the director and producer.

[Dave Barton]

They better have Miles from Lost play Tony.

[Desna]

Yeah, I think that Ken Leung (Miles from LOST) would be a perfect fit for the role if only for the look. I saw a picture of Tony Chu while internet surfing on the topic.

[Dave Barton]

Exactly.

I've been reading Chew from day one, and the writers have said several times how they model Tony after Miles.  And Tony's partner was modeled after Sawyer.  They've mentioned how if there were ever a show, they'd love the two to play them, so here's to hoping.

[Desna]

Wow. If I saw those two back on the screen again, I would definitely be into the show.

[Dave Barton]

After the "sideways" world was revealed towards the end of Lost, the writers of Chew wrote how they were excited to see Sawyer and Miles as cop partners, just as they are in Chew.  So it could be written in the stars.

Still no word on who is going to be playing who, but I found this article on who people would like to play the characters in the tv series.

I doubt they are getting Jackson. He doesn't strike me as the type to do tv series. So what do you guys think? Good picks? Would you replace anyone?

[Gabriel S-C.]

I just saw this and I am sold Sawyer and Miles would be perfect for Colby and Chu, awesome info, Dave

I think Chew is in trade now. If it is, I just might pick it up.

I think Chew is in trade now. If it is, I just might pick it up.

Bit of an understatement.  The fourth TPB just came out. 

[Desna]

Thanks for the correction. I saw a tweet by a LCBS owner that said that people who were waiting for Chew and Morning Glories to come out in trade would be very happy. Didn't know how long Chew had been out.

Morning Glories' second trade just dropped.  Another great deal ($12.99 full price).  The first one was only ten bucks.  It's a great comic, too.
