Groo: Friends and Foes Volume 1




Sergio Aragonés may be the most honored cartoonist working today, having won every major award in the field, including the National Cartoonists Society's Reuben Award, and the Will Eisner Hall of Fame Award. Sergio is best-known for his Marginal Thinking cartoons printed in the margins of MAD magazine. In 1982 Sergio teamed with Mark Evanier to create Groo the Wanderer, an unveiled parody of Conan.

As the bird-brained wanderer Groo and his loyal mutt Rufferto crisscross the countryside, they encounter various acquaintances from years past--the hapless seaman Captain Ahax; the sinister witches Arba and Dakarba; the pompous Arcadio the Hero; and Groo's own sweet Granny Groo, who raised from a tot and would never try to profit from him! What will ensue from all these chance meetings? With Groo, the only possible result is chaos! The award-winning team of Sergio Aragonés and Mark Evanier are joined by Tom Luth on colors and Stan Sakai on letters! This volume collects issues #1 - #4 of the Dark Horse Friends and Foes series.

Praise for the comics that comprise Groo: Friends and Foes:
"Charming, lucid and fun, Groo: Friends and Foes also swims in gorgeous colors from Tom Luth and includes lettering from the legendary Stan Sakai." -Paste Magazine
"Groo: Friends and Foes #1 in no way pretends to be something it's not and I am thankful for it. It is a beautifully-cartooned, smartly-written, lighthearted and enjoyable adventure book that also happens to be very, very hilarious."
