The Goon
>>156224024>unadaptable comics
>>156224088
>>156224107I meant for the other reason
>>156224119What's the other reason?
>>156224133Take a guess.
>>156224119NOBODY CARES ABOUT YOUR RETARDED MODERN DAY USE OF SLANG YOU AIRBREATHING INBRED OVERSIZED SPERM CELL
>>156224107based point 2 conclusion.
>>156224192Cope
>>156224164
>>156224232It's in the title
>>156224282What's wrong with The?
>>156224024Lords of misery was such a massive disappointment that I basically gave up on Powell. Has he done anything interesting since then? Besides make bad political comics I mean.
>>156224024I feel like the Lords of Misery has been a turning point for the worse for the franchise, everything since the peak that was Once Upon a Hard Time has just been tragically off. Like a corpse that just keeps shambling.
>>156224347Hillbilly was pretty good.
>>156224024Dave Bautista likes this comic
>>156224367Hillbilly came out way before LoM.
>>156224385Well I feel like it retained its quality throughout the years unlike the Goon.
>>156224347There's that Ed Gein comic which was pretty cool
>>156224396Oh no hillbilly is mostly great, I was just wondering if Powell had made anything worth reading in the past few years.
>>156224405Okay neat, I'll check it out
>>156224347>>156224358>end goon on a high note with an avengers style teaser for a follow up book>make us wait 5 fucking years with no updates >abruptly restart the main book under a different team before lords even comes out>finally release it only to reveal its a 50 page oneshot with a nothing burger plot that barely involves Franky or Goon and pretty much exclusively exists to shill his new edgy Latina oc and undo the ending of OUaHT>new goon run remains shit even after he returns to the book and is quietly canceled a year later Seriously what the fuck happened?
Gooning
Goongang
>>156225787>quietly canceled a year laterIt was always meant to be a mini (and even then it was reworking what he was making back before Albatross became a Dark Horse imprint)He said at the end of it that he's gotten old and his output has slowed down tremendously He can't do all-nighters anymoreHe's also married now
>>156226332My question is why do it at all? Especially when you're apparently so overwhelmed you can't even work on it directly for the first year? Did he decide he didn't like how he ended the original series? Was he somehow forced into doing it by dark horse? Why make something so utterly pointless? All it accomplished was resetting to the status quo
>>156225800>>156225837I hate you
>>156224416He's currently making Hillbilly : the Treason of Two Toes Maggie. Next issues in a few weeks I think.
>>156227811I love you anon. I really do. You are the only one who makes me laugh.
>>156224088I'm gonna be the old man and tell you the truth, that, why are you such a prissy little girl that you have to watch a tv show of something? Just buy an anthology book of something that came out forever ago like Bone or go to a pirate site and just read the whole series. Emmy is fun and it doesn't have a show. Why are you being so prissy? This might be a bot or something that fp a very annoying post to facilitate engagement.
>>156230197I said the truth, jackass
>>156224088just make it cringe edgy like the boys. retards will take it seriously like superhero deconstruction.
>>156224024I read some of the early issues and it was whatever. Nice art regardless.
>>156224107I was in school for 3D animation when the concept teaser was released and all of my classmates were so excited for it. I feel like Blur is incapable of feature length projects?
>>156230245Holy shit, it's always weird to see stuff from when Jeff was relevant. The guy really did just fall off the face of the earth once Bone was done.
>>156231239No one cared about RASL or Tuki.
>>156232012They were extremely unambitious and underwhelming compared to Bone. They're both soild reads, but they feel far more constrained.
>>156224107>Unfortunately the animated film we had been trying to get off the ground isn't happening. The Blur guys tried their hardest for almost two decades, but we've pretty much exhausted every possibility.They should team up with Laika. Imagine a stop-motion Goon movie.
>>156224024
>>156232795ummmmmwheres the weirdly sized dimpleglass pint with a handle.
>>156232795LOL!
>>156224024There's one issue with a joke scene about shooting trannies like rabbid dogs. Hollywood will never touch it.
>>156232631Kek
>>156230245Who are cigar and Superman supposed to be?
>>156230244Not what I meant
>>156235976Jack Kirby and Alex Ross
>>156224024Clancy Brown and Paul Giamatti sounded perfect for them
>>156230245Let me see if I got this right:Jeff Smith, Mike Mignola, Alan Moore, Jack Kirby, Alex Ross, Frank Miller?
>>156236291You got it.
>>156234619Powell is a very good boy now, don't worry. He's the kind of guy who would happily write goon giving a speech on the validity and beauty of troons if the need ever arises.
>>156224024What does he goon to?
>>156224375the singer for clutch mentioned it once in an interview and i think that's pretty neatit's only tangentially related but fun
>>156224347Is that a chick in leather and a gas mask? Tell me more.
>>156238941Keep it in your pants.
>>156227811Checked
>>156232771That's an idea.
>>156239726Listen, do you want me to read it or not?
>>156241862It's really not worth it
>>156237622Your mom.
>>156244510The Goon would go for a milf
>>156237622He is a Milf/Gilf enjoyer
>>156244861>>156245513Goon has exclusively dated 10/10, femme fatales, in their 20s.
>>156238920Man, I never run into other Clutch fans in the wild.I'm kind of surprised Neil Fallon has never written a comic.
The Coom
>>156224024I read some of it years ago. I didn't like it, although I don't remember much about it. Might give it a second try.
>>156246983Early goon is both a parody and a refinement of the 90s indie comic formula. Its a distillation of all those tropes but with a heavy layer of self awareness and the benefit of hindsight.
>>156247171I wish I remembered why I didn't like it, but I vaguely remember that the setting didn't make it for me, it felt way too random to be invested.
>>156246713Why did we switch from coom to goon?
>>156224024Decent series. I enjoyed Goon's first stories that were also funny. The recent stuff not so much. In the end it's Powell's series and he did what he thought was best for his character.
Gooncave
>>156247640Well my son, coom is used when someone is ejaculating and for the vast majority of us mere mortals one load is enough to satisfy us for a few hours, while gooning refers to the practice of consuming pornography and/or edging yourself until you finish, a practice that to the sufficiently motivated and/or bored can take much of one's day, and so it is applicable to a wider variety of situations than coom.
>>156224024Ok true goonheads give it to me straight, is thisnseries worth checking out or will i just end up being disappointed. I've been meaning to sit down and start it for a while now. Is there a point where it gets noticably shittier like most comics?
>>156248265See >>156224358
>>156247640*fap to goon. I don't know where it originated, but as I understand it "goon" started more as as a derogatory term for compulsive or excessive masturbation, but through overuse it just came to mean masturbation in general.
>>156248265It gets pretty meh starting Lords of Misery but the original run all the way to Once Upon A Hard Time is a classic.Afterward it doesn't fall off a cliff, but it kinda skids down a muddy slope. If Powell gets inspiration again it very well can become good again
>>156224024My brother had two of the books back in 2012. Nothin' But Misery and something else.Is the series over? Should I buy the rest? I liked it but I'm a bottom of the barrel kind of guy when it comes to media. I'd probably love Marvel movies if I didn't know they were all Jewish propaganda.
>>156248659It's pretty good up to a Once Upon a Hard Time.
>>156248884The horror circus oneshot was good too.The last story about the zombie woman was okay.
>>156238920The tweet is gone but he once said Momoa said he looks like the goon and he posted a picture of him and a picture of the Goon and it was pretty ccurate.
>>156249347>ccurateI choose to see this typo as a combination of cute and accurate
>>156249347Curare
