Synopsis

• Tony Chu is a detective with a secret. A weird secret. Tony Chu is cibopathic, which means he gets psychic impressions from whatever he eats. It also means he's a hell of a detective ― as long as he doesn't mind nibbling on the corpse of a murder victim to figure out whodunit and why. He's been brought on by the Special Crimes Division of the FDA, the most powerful law enforcement agency on the planet, to investigate their strangest, sickest, and most bizarre cases.
• Winner of the 2011 Eisner Award for "Best Continuing Series", this gorgeous, oversized edition collects issues #21-30, the fifth and sixth story-arcs of the acclaimed series, "Major League Chew" and "Space Cakes," as well as the blockbuster spin-off featuring America's favorite homicidal bionic rooster, "Secret Agent Poyo."
