I ask these questions because as I“ve read both issues, I have felt that each of these possibilities would be cast as the overriding theme of the story. Through two issues, I“m still not sure I have the answer.
In this completely original story, written by Richard Starkings and Tyler Shainline, we are introduced to Chuck Carter, who has eaten way too much beef. So much in fact, the excitotixins that he has accumulated in his brain over the years, now turn him into a giant slab of beef when he gets angry. Think of a big marbled pink and white Hulk running down the street.
To me, the comic so far has been a test of patience. I feel there is a really good story here that is worth telling, but it feels slow to develop. If I can continue to hold out, I feel there will be a payoff soon. I just have no idea what it is, or when it is planned.
I do want to give major kudos to Shaky Kane for the art and colors, which jump off the page. So far, this has been the consistent stand out work in the series.
If you have patience, this comic has potential. There are a lot of moving parts and if they are brought together into a cohesive storyline, it might be really fun. If you“re reading along with me, let me know what you think. I“ll continue to keep tabs on this one.
