''Chasing Dogma'' is a '' and '' Dogma ''. It was released by Oni Press and written by Kevin Smith , creator of View Askew Productions . SUMMARY Jay and Silent Bob get the idea that if they go to the town of Shermer, Illinois, where most of John Hughes ' movies take place, they could "get chicks and have the blunt connection". Along the way they encounter Holden McNeil , Wildlife marshals and Monkey s. ISSUE #1 In the first issue, Jay and Silent Bob have been kicked out of Trisha Jones's (Trish the Dish from '' Mallrats '') apartment, where they had lived for the previous six months. Unfortunately, this is all seen by a USA Today Reporter , hoping to talk to her about her book ''Borgasm''. After getting ejected, Jay and Bob go on to be kicked out of the Eden Prairie Mall (also from ''Mallrats''), Quick Stop/RST Video(from '' Clerks. '') and Comic Toast (as seen in ''Mallrats'' and a cut scene from ''Chasing Amy''), the two, remembering various John Hughes movies, decide to go to Shermer, Illinois (where most of Hughes' movies are set). The two get tickets, meet Holden McNeil (an interaction depicted in the diner scene from ''Chasing Amy''), and travel to Chicago via bus. The issue also features various references to the View Askew films.
ISSUE TWO The pair are thrown off the bus to Chicago after "smoking a bowl" in its bathroom. Being kicked out near Pittsburgh , the two decide to get a ride to a nearby town. After a near fatal encounter with Mr. Rogers, Bob decides to get a new hat at a Mooby store. While Jay is waiting, he meets a Pornographic Actress . He convinces her that Jay and Bob should be in her current project, ''Doogie Nights''. The two arrive at the set, a local hospital, to find that the director is former Doogie Howser star Neil Patrick Harris . Wishing to make a "quasi-indie film", Neil gives Jay the job of Fluffer . Jay, being ''too'' good at his job, leaves the actors unable to do a scene. Jay and Bob then leave the hospital, unhappy with the gift the porn star gave to him. Meanwhile, wildlife marshal Sam "Big Dog" Gavert starts a full search for the escaped Zoo monkey Suzanne (shown in the closing shot of ''Mallrats''). The monkey actually belongs to Provasic Pharmaceuticals , who are hoping to get their test subject back.
ISSUE 3 The two wake up in Indiana to find Suzanne cupping Jay's penis. While Jay rants about how monkeys may eventually rule the world, Bob bonds with Suzanne. The three of them become hungry, and Jay decides to grab something to eat. Meanwhile, Big Dog and his team of wildlife marshals get a tip that the monkey is at an Indiana diner. At said diner, Jay, Bob and Suzanne eat some grub. The wildlife marshals surround the diner and demand the release of Suzanne. Jay, Bob and Suzanne (disguised as a kid) decide to come out. Big Dog falls for their disguise , until he smells Banana s. Jay and Bob escape with Suzanne into the Sewer , where they're followed by Mad Dog. The four end up at a huge Dam pipe, where Suzanne tricks Mad Dog into jumping over into the water. Hearing of Mad Dog's fate, the team of marshals leave the trio alone when they emerge from the pipe. Jay and Bob hear that a Dr. Ogee at Provasic is offering a Reward for Suzanne's capture. The two turn Suzanne in, get two bus tickets to Chicago as compensation and are on the road once again. ISSUE 4 The duo finally arrive in Chicago and enlist a cab to drive them to Shermer, Illinois. They end up at McHenry High School, where the two crash the Home Economics classroom and sell some weed to the students. At the school, Jay meets a Lesbian student named Crystal, who sews Jay's catchphrase "Snoogans" onto his hat and explains the fictional status of Shermer, Illinois. The two rival with the school dealers and end up in a sticky situation. After getting some new clothes, the two talk about going back to Trisha's place, but are distracted by the sounds of the local rock band Forkin' Tongue. The two praise their playing and Jay buys a shirt from them. After hanging out with the band all night, Jay and Bob eat breakfast at a Mooby's restaurant and decide to stay in Chicago and get laid. They stop by the Planned Parenthood clinic to "meet loose women". After waiting all night, Bob hears something near the parking lot. The two investigate the problem, thus leading into ''Dogma''.
