Two Italian Guys comic series debut book now available for pre-order

Online, March 22, 2010 (Newswire.com) - From the migration, to the mob, to marinara...It's the Italian-American experience like you've never seen it before! Mangia Industry proudly presents the first chapter of the Two Italian Guys comic book series, now available for pre-order.

In his debut comic work Two Italian Guys, cartoonist Chris Yura pays homage to the grand history, grisly mob culture, and great foods that are Italian-America. Yura draws on his family's own past to weave a rich narrative that says goodbye to the old country and casts off for the land of opportunity. Transitioning into Depression-era America, Two Italian Guys follows two first generation brothers who think they deserve more than dead end jobs and, if they ignore their father's advice, may have found the answer.

Raised in a culture that worships homemade meals and quality cuisine, Yura's nod to those who share his intolerance of bad food is evident in the short stories starring TV chef Lou Peppino. Lou may toss out more insults than instructions to his viewing audience, but he does reveal authentic, easy to follow Italian recipes to show that anyone can make something good to eat! Wittily strung together with a hearty helping of mob hits and pop culture references, Yura's straightforward style will appeal to everyone.

Two Italian Guys (38 full-color pages, premium hardcover, retail price $12.95) is available for pre-order at http://www.amazon.com and http://www.mangiaindustry.com and is scheduled for release on May 11, 2010.
