The Goon will be relaunching at Powell’s imprint Albatross Funnybooks, and it will be one of the flagship titles of the new expanded publisher.

Powell began self-publishing again in 2002 as Albatross Exploding Funny Books, and in 2003 publication of The Goon moved to Dark Horse.

The very violent but also very funny Goon offers a hockey thug’s twist to Canada’s official colors: red blood against white ice.

HitFix’s Alan Sepinwall reviews "Goon," the movie comedy starring Seann William Scott as a minor league hockey enforcer.

Leading the cast is Rahman. In an earlier conversation with CE, Rahman said that his character in the film is a person who wants to be a serious goon but does not know how to.
