1.Emeril, Giada, Rachael, And Buddy Immortalized

In this Blondie comic, Dagwood is delighted by his unique Father's Day gift. In case anyone's feeling a bit jealous, we're sure it's just a matter of time before this becomes a reality. Actually, just check Etsy.

2.Chris Cosentino Teams Up With Wolverine

Less surprising than how well these two go together is the fact that nobody has tried to pitch this as a TV show. Ideally, it would be something in which the pair travel the country cooking delicious food and solving meat-related crimes. [X-Men, Marvel.]

3.Anthony Bourdain's 'Get Jiro!'

Unlike the rest of the chefs featured here,Anthony Bourdain isn't the star of this graphic novel, he's the author. We're pretty sure we can all agree that "ultraviolent food nerds" is definitely something the world has been missing.

4.Gordon Ramsay's Reach Known No Bounds

Who doesn't get the urge to curse whenever Gordon Ramsay is involved?

5.Julia Child's Words of Wisdom

Coincidentally, this is also Paula Deen's favorite piece of advice. [The Brilliant Mind of Edison Lee, by John Hambrock.]

6.Rachael Ray Brings New Meaning To TV Dinner

In Rachael Ray's second appearance, she helps this mother make a meal her son will eat. His retort is on point. [Oh, Brother!, by Jay Stephens and Bob Weber, Jr.]

7.Eli Kirshtein Cooks For Peter Parker

The Top Chef Season Six cheftestant is once again cooking under pressure, this time for Spider Man. At least if the Green Goblin shows up, Eli's got some sharp knives handy. [Spider-Man: A Meal to Die For, courtesy of Marvel.]

8.Top Chef Makes Food in America

Our favorite cooking competition gets name dropped in this comic. Take note future cheftestants: one day you too may be cooking for superheroes. [The Family Tree, by Signe Wilkinson.]
