About The Book

American Chop Suey is an all-ages, comedic graphic novel set on the great plains of North Dakota populated by kung fu rabbits, ninja prairie dogs, and wrestling bears. Written by Aaron Walther and illustrated by Ed Bickford, American Chop Suey is published by Scout Comics.

Having mastered the art of Origami, Tofu the Rabbit goes on a quest to learn the secrets of perfect scrapbooking from Princess Snowpea. Along the way, he battles a troupe of Ninja Scouts in training, mentors a wrestling bear, and tries to avoid the Evil Ferret, but when Tofu’s rival, Dark Miso, kidnaps Princess Snowpea for his own nefarious purposes, Tofu and his new friends must band together to pull off a daring and comedic rescue.

The debut graphic novel in the American Chop Suey series, this is a silly and charming comedy about facing new challenges with a smile on your face and not getting discouraged when the odds are against you.
