Layouts to pencils for The Goon

A while back I wrote and drew a short for The Goon. I absolutely loved working on it, and wish I could do more with the character. Anyway, here's the "script". You'll notice that there are more pages here then I ended up with. Check them out closely, and you'll see that I trimmed it down to bring it in at six pages.





Here are the pencils, some of my favorite ever.








I'll post the inks later.

best,
mike

Oh man...cannot wait to see the inks. Anyone who can't get into The Goon just isn't human. Great character and great treatment Mike. Nice!

Thanks guys. I really would love to draw more Goon... if I only had more time!

Eric was fun to work with, and we've been pals for a long while. The gag was that Eric was to write the dialogue in the last panel, but I never knew what it was going to be till I was done. :)
