42.13: Chew (Volume 6): Space Cakes, by John Layman (author) and Rob Guillory (artist) (2012 trade paperback, issues 26-30)

For sheer entertainment and crazy, intelligent fun, this comic is unmatchable. I've laid out the premise in earlier reviews (Volume 3 and 4/5, and I'll simply say that this volume--focusing on Tony's sister Toni--is more of the same quality. Without giving more away, I will say that this story arc concludes in a pretty grisly and sad way, but it doesn't make me want to stop reading, Instead, I look forward to seeing how Layman and Guillory spin off from here into a new landscape both serious and comical.
