It's been almost two years since we last saw good-natured deer-boy Gus on screen, but Sweet Tooth season 2 finally arrives on Netflix this Thursday for eight exciting new episodes.
The series is based on a comic book written and drawn by Jeff Lemire. The show and the book are quite different beasts in some ways (we'll get into that in a moment), but both broadly stick to the same general story. Fundamentally, this is the tale of a naive young deer/human hybrid named Gus and his reluctant guardian, Tommy Jepperd (often called Big Man in the show), as they try to survive and make their way in a hostile, post-apocalyptic future.
