"Eric Powell&amp;#039;s Dark Horse Comics title The Goon is to return. The comic - which has received only intermittent releases since its monthly schedule for 2008&amp;#039;s &amp;#039;Goon Year&amp;#039; - is to return to its original bimonthly schedule with issue #34. &amp;quot;Something I pride myself on is that I feel people can really pick up any single issue of The Goon and be entertained,&amp;quot; Powell told Comic Book Resources. &amp;quot;Even though there may be back story you don&amp;#039;t understand, if you pick up an issue with no prior knowledge of the book, you&amp;#039;ll get a complete story. &amp;quot;I do have a big story in the same vein as the &amp;#039;Return of Labrazio&amp;#039; story planned sometime down the road. But really, The Goon has always been a self-contained-story kind of book. &amp;#039;Chinatown&amp;#039; and the big &amp;#039;Return of Labrazio&amp;#039; arc being the exceptions. I like short stories. No time to be flowery. Make your point and get out of there.&amp;quot; Powell sparked a heated debate earlier in the year with a video protesting the supremacy of superhero comics. The Goon #34 will be released in June, and sees the eponymous hero going up against a gang of very familiar sparkly vampires. The following issue is being penned by Beast of Burden creator Evan Dorkin.  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
