To mark the 25th anniversary of The Goon, Eric Powell returns with an all-new miniseries, Them That Don't Stay Dead! When one of the Goon's most hated enemies delves into black magic to settle their grudge, there are unsuspected consequences. for them, the Goon and all of Nameless Town. An old evil returns in a new way to reclaim Lonely Street. With an alternate special edition cover by renowned artist Jim Mahfood.
What Eric Powell does exceedingly well is balance. The story can have high stakes, danger, and horrific imagery, and yet it's funny and cartoon in a way that brings it a light hearted feel. That same tone matches up with the art work. Zombies go from silly and stupid, to menacing and powerful. This issue really took what the previous issue started and ran with it, all while building a new layer. I feel like things are gonna be challenging for The Goon and he'll have to make some tough decisions in the future. The Goon is a great read for me and I highly recommend it to any fans of horror, Noir style stories, and Looney Tunes. Read Full Review
