Special Halloween one-shot!
In this special Halloween one-shot, Goon finds himself trapped in the Theatre Bizarre at the mercy of Zombo the Clown and burlesque queen Roxi Dlite! Theatre Bizarre is a real-life Halloween event held annually in Detroit, the brainchild of artist John Dunivant!
The question becomes, "if I've never read The Goon, is this the place to start?" Probably. I mean if you want a deep backstory for the characters and to know why their altogether then you won't get that here. What you will get is a story that feels inclusive. You don't have to have read every issue of The Goon to read Theatre Bizarre. You just need to understand what the story is doing and get that there's going to be a mixture of comedy and drama when the story calls for it. Or if you're just a fan of Halloween one-shots, then check this baby out. Read Full Review
