Goon Squad

An ongoing, episodic 'prose comic' from which the pictures are summoned by the magic of words, Goon Squad is set in a version of modern-day Manchester. Its biggest divergence from the real city is that it (along with most other large urban centers) has a team of superheroes to protect it against unusual threats with which the conventional forces of law and order would have problems. Goon Squad, Vol. 3: Old Enemies is composed of: 'Life during Wartime,' 'Red Wolf, Red Wolf, Does Whatever a Red Wolf Can,' 'Shadow of the Vivisector,' 'The Man from Switzerland,' 'The End of the Year Show,' as well as an introduction read by the author.
