The final issue of the Doomlord-homaging, superbly silly The Chefs of Death is here.

A parallel Earth’s Queen Elizabeth II is assembling a team to take on the Kabrullions and rid the universe of their hungry rampages once and for all.

Just like the first two issues, The Chefs of Death #3 is stuffed to the gills with pop culture references, sly digs at politicians and a vast number of puns. It seems that no pop culture property is safe from the satirical swipes in The Chefs of Death, and there’s a great deal of fun to be had in spotting what’s being pilloried in any given scene.

There’s cameos galore too, including a very welcome one from one of my favourite, citrus-flavoured characters from a 90s daytime TV show parody.

The vast amount of work it must have taken to get all of the scenes photographed, and edited to add effects, such as in a kaiju-style battle in London, is genuinely impressive too.

This has been a wonderful series to check out; such a knowing and lovably mischievous homage to a classic, fondly remembered (if slightly obscure) photo strip. I’ll miss the daft shenanigans of The Chefs of Death, but as the afterword states, it’s definitely best to go out on a high.

You can buy The Chefs of Death #3 from Global Comix.
