Eric Powell’s The Goon is a one-of-a-kind comic book character, a brawny, unconstructed lug who has a dive-bar soul and an alley-fight face. This year, remarkably, is the 20th anniversary of the cult character, who has tussled along he way with ghouls, a giant squid, mobsters, mutants, deranged scientists, demons, and a pie-eating skunk ape. For the award-winning Powell, the anniversary celebration has been chance to connect with fans (with an ambitious book tour and a barrage of tie-in releases) as well as peers (through a bevy of unprecedented collaborations).
In the all-new Goon comic book series now underway, Powell has teased that he would be joined by some notable names from the comics world. For issue No. 5, which goes on sale July 31, the writing chores were divided by Powell and Thomas Sniegoski (The Fallen) while the illustrations are by Brett Parson (Tank Girl). Powell himself drew the main...

London-based sales outfit WestEnd Films has released the first-look image from Gerard Johnson’s psychological thriller “Muscle,” which Variety has exclusively.
The movie, which is “dripping in sweat, tears, and testosterone,” according to WestEnd, centers on Simon, an unhappy, unambitious office worker whose life is gradually taken over by Terry, his new, very hands-on personal trainer. Terry soon reveals himself to be more committed — and more dangerous — than Simon could have imagined.
The black-and-white picture, which is in post-production, stars Cavan Clerkin, Craig Fairbrass and Lorraine Burroughs. The original script was penned by Johnson.
Matthew James Wilkinson of Stigma Films is producing alongside Ed Barratt and Richard Wylie of Hook Pictures. Fred Fiore and Eric Tavitian of Logical Pictures are both producing and fully financing the film. Céline Dornier and Alan Martin, Logical Pictures, and Manuel Chiche, The Jokers, serve as exec producers.

So, Tank Girl is 30 years old this year. How the hell did that happen? Seems like only yesterday I was at university and I had to pretend to every girl I was trying to pick up that I was a big Tank Girl fan. All the cool girls wore Tank Girl t-shirts, or had a book or poster, and she became something of a hero to the feisty teen girls about town. In the death throes of Thatcherism in the UK she was also allowed aboard the anti-establishment train, so her pop culture credentials were well and truly accepted. But, hey, we all grow up eventually so how has Tank Girl kept herself relevant in pop culture all these years? Oh, and rather like Ryan Reynolds in Deadpool 2, I have erased Tank Girl the movie from the timeline,...

With the Premier League’s joint-top goalscorer, England’s brightest defensive prospect, and some of the best young midfielders in the business on its books, Everton’s greatest challenge could be keeping hold of his prized assets this transfer window.
Some of Europe’s top clubs are circling the likes of Romelu Lukaku and John Stones, but Goodison Park is no longer the revolving-door talent hub it once was. Manager Roberto Martinez continues to repel bids for his star players, yet with Champions League qualification no more than a pipe dream, holding onto them longterm could be a big ask.
Then there are valuable squad players like Steven Naismith and Kevin Mirallas, a talented duo who are finding first-team football hard to come by at Everton and may choose to seek it at pastures new, rather than fight for the right to cast off their benchwarmer tags.

Another 25 unsung greats come under the spotlight, as we look at the underrated movies of 1995.
The year covered in this underrated movie rundown was significant for a number of reasons. It was the year that saw the release of Toy Story--the groundbreaking movie that would cement Pixar's reputation as an animation studio, and set the tempo for CG family movies for the next 23 years and counting. It was the year that saw James Bond (played by Pierce Brosnan for the first time) emerge for GoldenEye after a six-year break. It was also the year of Michael Mann's Heat, and the moment where Terry Gilliam scored a much-deserved hit with 12 Monkeys. Plus it was the year Mel Gibson's Braveheart had a battle cry of freedom that reverberated all the way to the Oscar stage.
As ever, we're focusing on a few of the...
