This book combines two out-of-print graphic novels written by Anthony Bourdain and Joel Rose, set in a near-future Los Angeles in which culinary tribalism rules the city and one talented sushi chef refuses to be forced into any of the dueling camps. Fortunately, our hero Jiro's knife skills extend beyond fish, something his opponents learn to their regret. Bourdain fans will recognize how he and his collaborator Joel Rose skewer ideas and trends for which the late chef had little patience. Art from the original Get Jiro! is by Landon Foss, with coloring by Jose Villarrubia and Dave Stewart, and letting by Todd Klein. For Get Jiro: Blood and Sushi, Ale Garza is given credit as penciller and inker, Dan Green as inker; Jose Villarrubia as colorist, Clem Robbins as letterer, and Dave Johnson as the cover artist. This edition also contains Langdon Foss's character designs and concept sketches from Get Jiro! Paperback. Color and black-and-white illustrations throughout.
