Discover the tantalizing tale of Rubin Baksh, a demonic Rakshasa with a down-to-earth dream of becoming the next Anthony Bourdain. To achieve his vision, Rubin enlists Mo, a filmmaker who has seen better days, to document the world-renowned cuisine of India and the people behind such glorious food. But little does Mo know that there’s more to Rubin than meets the eye, and the mortals play a darker role in the show than they were prepared for... Entice your palate with the follow up offering from the Eisner, Harvey, and Ringo Award-nominated team of Ram V (Detective Comics, Blue In Green) and Filipe Andrade (Fantastic Four, Star) in this series painstakingly prepared for fans of Anthony Bourdain’s Hungry Ghosts and Eat The Rich!

Normally I wait until issues of a graphic novel have been bound into a volume, but I was hungry for another Ram V/Filipe Andrade collab, and predictably, this was also incredible. All the food-related clichéd compliments apply: 'darkly delicious, a feast for the eyes'. Little ominous, hints of violence, but also beautiful and immersive. Gave me Gaiman/Sandman vibes. Demon gourmand: what more do you need? Hope my library gets the next issue soon!
