Sweet Tooth #4 Review
Gus might be the answer to the world's problems.
by Bryan Joel IGN.com
Jeff Lemire's Sweet Tooth is a monthly revelation, but it's not the fresh take on a post-apocalyptic world where the true genius of this book lies.

SWEET TOOTH 3 Review at IGN
by Jesse Schedeen
November 4, 2009 - On a surface level, Jeff Lemire's Sweet Tooth seems to borrow from numerous sources. The basic concept of a young boy and his grizzled protector crossing a post-apocalyptic wasteland evokes images of Cormac McCarthy's The Road.
