The Goon featuring Hellboy

The Goon #7

by Eric Powell

The Goon and Franky have seen their share of supernatural-type hubbub, but when a big, red, stump-headed gorilla with a stone hand called Hellboy shows up on Lonely Street, they ain't exactly prepared for the hell that's about to break loose. And Hellboy ain't exactly prepared for Franky and the Goon! This is the crossover event of the year, and we ain't talking about pancakes and hot noodles! If you miss this, you might as well go crying home to Mama! Mike Mignola's Hellboy and Eric Powell's Goon team up for one of the coolest, funniest, and smartest crossovers ever in this historic comics event!

Reviews

[Jason Holtzman · Rating 4 out of 5]

Now this was an issue! I happened along quite the set of this series for free but was unfortunately looking a gift horse in the mouth after the first few issues because I wasn't really enjoying it. The issues seemed to be too focused on playing for laughs rather than telling a cohesive story, but this one was fun, especially as a Hellboy fan. It had a clear goal in mind and ultimately as a good read with some terrific Mignola artwork.
