The Goon”s most desperate battle gets a high-class treatment, with a ritzy new design and featuring a new cover by Eric Powell! An ally of the Goon has learned the Zombie Priest”s secret name, turning the tide in the struggle against the undead hordes of Lonely Street and forcing the Priest to create a whole new breed of minion-one that may be beyond even the strength of the Goon to contain.
