For two decades, the Goon’s adventures have thrilled fans, critics, and creators with their bold creativity, classic style, and irreverent humor. This volume contains Eric Powell's highly anticipated return to his flagship series for its 20th anniversary.
The next era in the legacy of The Goon starts here, and takes the series to its humor-based roots as Goon & Franky return from strange adventures abroad to find a horde of unsavory characters have filled the void left in his absence from Lonely Street.
