The Beef #2
Years of eating cheeseburgers pumped full of questionable chemicals has finally come back to haunt Chuck Williams. Seeing his beloved Mary-Lynn about to become road pizza, Chuck's adrenaline and rage literally turns him inside out. He becomes like the Hulk only a whole lot uglier.
Though the change wasn't permanent, it's attracted the attention of The Beef's owner Vodino. This sort of mutation is the type of thing that could cause trouble for the unethical meat processing plant. But it's also the kind of thing that shouldn't go unexploited. (Hey, The Beef could create super steroids out of Chuck's DNA for all we know.) Regardless of the outcome's positive and negative effects, Vodino has to get Chuck Williams out of the public eye.
The story continues to be very good. However, I had trouble understanding about 5-6 pages of the story. It was in Spanish and mine is not good. Too bad it wasn't in French- I know that language.
I also like the art. I won't say that it's superior or anything like that. But I love how it looks like a cross between Beavis and Butthead and King of the Hill. Yes, I know that the same guy did both projects. But King of the King was a lot more polished that B&B. Tyler Shainline's artwork is both rough and polished. It's an interesting amalgam.
Cool cover by Shaky Kane.
Can't wait for issue #3.
The Beef #2 debuted in print and digital mediums on March 28, 2018.
Worth Consuming!
