David Fincher Takes 'The Goon' To Kickstarter, Asks "Does Hollywood Know Better Than You?"
For the past few years we've watched as producer David Fincher, cartoonist Eric Powell, and Blur Animation Studio have worked to make an animated feature film based on Powell's comic The Goon.

OK, being 100% honest, the panel for The Goon, based on Eric Powell's comics (he's also scripting) and produced by David Fincher, may be the best panel I've ever seen at Comic Con.
