The Crossover You Never Expected: CHEW Meets THE WALKING DEAD?
After a rather interesting attempt at sizzling up the Image Universe by establishing an interconnection of sorts with Tim Seeley and Mike Norton’s rural noir, Revival, Chew creators John Layman and Rob Guillory are setting their sights on a much bigger pie with Chew: Warrior Chicken Poyo #1 featuring an appearance with what we can only assume as The Walking Dead’s Rick, Carl, Michonne, and hordes of the undead.
While this may be nothing but a simple allusion to undoubtedly the most successful Image Comics venture, it’s interesting to note that this is not the first time for characters from The Walking Dead to appear in another series. Police officers Rick Grimes and Shane Walsh have appeared in an issue of another Kirkman comic, Invincible #81.
The Chew/Revival crossover released also alluded to Staples and Vaughan’s Saga, with an appearance by The Will’s sidekick, Lying Cat, fighting Poyo.
Chew: Warrior Chicken Poyo #1 will be released on July 30.
