SWEET ON DARK AND GRITTY CRIME

Newcomer Kody Chamberlain writes and draws SWEETS for Image Comics

Berkeley, CA - 22 April 2021 - Newcomer and Louisiana native Kody Chamberlain makes his Image Comics debut with SWEETS, a five-issue crime drama set in New Orleans shortly before Hurricane Katrina strikes.

“New Orleans is a great town for crime comics. It’s rich with culture, architecture and all the little details that rarely show through in comic books,” says Chamberlain. “I’ve lived in South Louisiana all my life: I don’t have to jump on Google to find tourist photos. The music is my music, and the slang is my slang. Hopefully, that shows through and makes the city come alive for the readers.”

“Kody has one of the freshest perspectives I’ve seen in a while,” says Image Publisher Eric Stephenson. “His artwork is fantastic, but he’s a great writer as well, and SWEETS is going to be the book to read.”

SWEETS: A spree killer terrorizes New Orleans days before Hurricane Katrina makes landfall. Detective Curt Delatte just buried his only daughter, and he’s in no condition to work. But when the bodies pile up, Delatte masks his grief and joins the hunt through the bowels of the Big Easy. It won’t be long until his city—and his evidence—gets washed away.

SWEETS #1, a full-color 32-page comic written and drawn by Kody Chamberlain, will be available for $2.99 and in stores on July 14, 2010. A special preview of SWEETS can be found in CHEW #11, in stores on June 9, 2010.
