088 - The Goon

Even the undead fear… The Goon! But who is The Goon? We take a look at Eric Powell's strange pulpy horror adventure crime comic series about a tough guy who beats up spiders and zombies and elves and cows and anyone else who needs a beating. We're looking at 4 issues (and a color special) that were self published by Eric Powell, but that Dark Horse later released as Volume 1 of the Goon. We're also getting close to the end of Crisis on Infinite Earths with issue #9 of our continuing series. Next Time: Batwoman: Elegy by Greg Rucka & JH Williams III
