Eric Powell’s The Goon is set to get a major promotional push from Dark Horse this October. For starters, there will be a special 25-cent issue of The Goon and a new hardcover called The Goon: Fancy Pants Edition. The stories in the hardcover will not be collecting the Dark Horse issues sequentially. Instead, Powell has rearranged those stories along with some of his self-published Goon issues into chronological order. The hardcover is also expected to contain excerpts from Powell’s sketchbook and other extras.  |

this (and apparently the Goon toys as well!) is supposed to come out tomorrow!! HOOOORAY GOOON!
I wonder what exactly is in the Hardcover (is a collection of the 4 Goon TPB's out now? just a collection of the essential reads plus some sketchbook stuff? does have any new material like some of the nwer comics or will I need to wait for the 5th TPB (which ironically would be #4) to get those?)
Still the Goon is good reading, if no other reason then it's got Franky, the greatest sidekick EVER (and yes, I'm aware I'm saying that on a message board deicated to a superhero with the most iconic sidekick ever, and I still stand by that statement!)
