The Goon is a comic book series created by Eric Powell. The Goon works for a local mob boss, which often lands him and his buddy Frankie in interesting situations. Many times it involves The Zombie Priest and his legion of the dead. But the come across plenty of other supernatural beings as well.
First published in 1998, the series has been going strong every since and has a devote fan base.
I cant say enough about The Goon. The story is fun to read. The characters are rich in personality, as our the creatures. It has a lot of dark humor too.
From the first volume, I was hooked and bought a couple of more. Now, I need pick up some more volumes and continue on.
