*Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Gus.

Gus had antlers and lived with his father in a little cabin in the woods. Then his father died, and the big man with cold eyes took Gus away. Gus went on many great adventures, found friends, love, happiness, family, and acceptance.

Now, years later…it begins again. A young boy with antlers and deer-like features wakes in a bizarre and completely foreing world where the last humans struggle to survive. They tell the boy his special, he is chosen, and that he alone can help them take back the world from the oppressive Hybrids.

Sweet Tooth: The Return is no rehash of the original series, but rather a bold reimagining of the Sweet Tooth mythology; taking elements of the original series and remixcing them into something familiar, but totally new. A divided world. A planet long ago past the point of devastation. And at the center of it all, a child who didn’t ask to be born into any of this, but who has no choice but to try and forge some life for himself. His visions and dreams may not be real at all…they may just be fiction. But they are hope. And sometimes hope is enough.

Acclaimed writer/artist Jeff Lemire reunites with colorist José Villarrubia to bring you the next chapter in the saga of DC’s acclaimed series Sweet Tooth! Collects all six issues of Sweet Tooth: The Return.*


Kieltämättä yhtäläisyyksiä alkuperäiseen sarjaan löytyy. Ja ne ovat kyllä varsin ymmärrettäviä kun pääsee perille siitä, mitä on tapahtumassa. Siinä vaiheessa viimeistään nousee vino hymy huulille. Ihan loistava idea ja toteutettu vielä hyvin. Sekä oivalla hahmokatraalla ja laadukkaalla kuvituksella. Ehdoton luettava kaikille alkuperäisen sarjan faneille! Tässä on tulevaisuus pistetty melkoisella tavalla uusiksi.
