A murderous childhood, and a legend born onto the streets

Eric Powell brings forth his creation, The Goon. A scarred crime boss in a city plagued by both criminals and supernatural evil that seems to seep out and torment its inhabitants. But, that is not where the story begins, for it began when The Goon was nothing more then an orphan who was taken in by his strong woman aunt Kizzie up until she was killed in a shoot out. And through sheer guile and force Goon took over the cities rackets. It also explains how he met his good friend and partner Frankie. Its a rip roaring good read that blends both humor, action, and adventure, read The Goon and enjoy a unique ride.
