HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Like many of you, we celebrate all things creepy all year round, but today is still the best day of the year, and we always like to have something special for Daily Dead readers. Thanks to Dark Horse Comics, we have a Halloween treat in the form of not one, but two comic books that you can read for free right now! This frightfully fun Eric Powell double feature includes the entire issue of The Goon: Them That Don't Stay Dead #1 and Lester of the Lesser Gods #1!

The Goon: Them That Don't Stay Dead #1: "To mark the 25th anniversary of The Goon, Eric Powell returns with an all-new miniseries, Them That Don't Stay Dead!

The return to Lonely Street hasn't been easy for the Goon and Franky. And just as they've finally got the various gangs of blood suckers and night stalkers back in line, and they can finally relax with a nice night out bowling, a new threat appears. One that will shake the very foundations of Nameless Town. Also, Spider gets hooked on the junk. Drama!

With an alternate special edition cover by Craig Davison. Davison's work is well known for its depiction of childhood pop culture fantasy. From Star Wars to Marvel superheroes, Davison's art reminds us what it was like to be a kid using creative ways to transform into our favorite heroes and villains."

Lester of the Lesser Gods #1: "Eric Powell (The Goon) and comedian and voice actor Lucky Yates (Archer) combine twisted comedic talents to bring you Lester of the Lesser Gods. Originally created as an unproduced animated short by Powell a decade ago, the concept was revived when the two writers were looking for a comic project to work on.

Lester, the larping bastard son of the Odin, wanders the post-apocalyptic wasteland after thwarting Satan’s attempt to bring about the end of days. But can this hero of the downtrodden survive the battle arena of Will Frye the Technomancer Guy."

Featuring art by Gideon Kendall
