Sweet Tooth #7

I think I'm actually more interested in Jepperd's past than I am in Gus' future. And I'm way curious to see what the fuck happens to Gus. The reveal on the last page isn't a total shock, but it works, and it definitely makes shit more interesting. Also Gus is about to get ravaged by the nefarious Dr. Singh. Tray of cutting tools gets me every time.

Art-wise, this is Lemire's strongest issue yet. The emotional subtlety of his close-ups, the haunted washed-out landscapes, the gutshot splash pages - all awesome. And that pig-boy is fucking creepy.
