The only children born since are part of a new breed of human-animal hybrids. Gus is one of these children: a boy with a sweet soul, a sweeter tooth--and the features of a deer. <p/> But kids like Gus have a price on their heads. When vicious hunters descend on his isolated forest home, a mysterious and violent man called Jepperd rescues Gus. The hulking drifter promises to lead Gus to the Preserve, a fabled safe haven for hybrid children. <p/> As the two cross this dangerous new American frontier, will Jepperd corrupt the boy he's nicknamed "Sweet Tooth," or will Gus' heart change Jepperd? <p/> Collects SWEET TOOTH #1-12, as well as character sketches, cover sketches, and an introduction by celebrated actor Michael Sheen (<i>Masters of Sex</i>, <i>Frost/Nixon</i>).<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Like a Coen brothers road-trip drama, SWEET TOOTH...is a fantastic post-apocalyptic comic. --AM NEW YORK <p/>SWEET TOOTH is a grabber from the get-go...Lemire retains his gift for imbuing ordinary moments with a sense of wonder. --THE ONION <p/>Jeff Lemire's SWEET TOOTH is as heartbreakingly elegant as it is wholly original.
