Mud Brothers

Mud Brothers

The Mud Brothers (sometimes Mudd) are two ogre-like brothers who aid The Goon when he needs some extra muscle.

Origin

The Mud Brothers were first seen after they were hired by a mobster known as Salvatore to collect a debt for him. While they originally set out with this mission in mind, they were given a better deal by The Goon and decided to work alongside him and his pals, defending Lonely Street.

Creation

The Mud Brothers were created by Eric Powell for 'The Goon' comic series.

Team Evolution

The Mud Brother's have a conflicting team name; considering sometimes they're called the Mud Brothers while other-times being dubbed the Mudd Brothers; it is unknown what the official title of the group is or why it is so often altered.

The team disbanded after the death of Bill Mudd; thus leaving Charlie Mudd as the only surviving member.
