    Although I keep awarding this book high praises and scores every month, I never run out of positive things to say.People look back on comics in the 1990s and remember poly-bagged gimmicks.When people look back on comics in the early 21stcentury, they will remember compelling stories, magnificent illustrations;The Goonwill be the first example to define that era.

    Having now established background and motivations for a number of characters, it will be interesting to see how much of a bearing each will have on the final outcome. The central conflict that makes up the core of the overarching narrative has, up to this point, merely provided a backdrop for detailed character development, but it is sure to become the central focus in what promises to be an exciting, action-packed final issue.

    The Goon: Occasion of Revenge gives us yet another amazing entry, as though I'm more looking forward for the battle between the Goon and the Witch Gang, this Kid Gargantuan centred chapter really kept me hooked. Highly recommended. Read Full Review

    The Goon: Occasion of Revenge #3 is an engrossing issue due to its story developments that includes shocking twists, and effectively sets the stage for an explosive conclusion to the series. The build up of Kid's backstory is entertaining and pays off, although I admit I enjoyed the way the previous issues were able to connect the backstories of others to the destructive influence of the town. There wasn't much action, even though it was alluded to heavily, and so I believe some of that will be shown next issue. Either way I can't wait to get my hands on the final issue and see what fate awaits Goon and the town. Read Full Review
