Every week, the Comics Page introduces you to brand-new graphic novels by the world's best artists and writers. Manga, superheroes, indie comix — we'll cover them all as our editors select the best the exploding comics world has to offer.

Johnny Boyo could have had it all. Women. Money. Fame. He was one of the premier chefs in the galaxy, and his culinary skills could have made him a star.

Today on the Comics Page, we're proud to present an excerpt from Wonton Soup, a manga–meets–Gahan Wilson–meets–Iron Chef space-trucker opera by James Stokoe, on sale now from Oni Press.
