Groo (Dark Horse)

    (Dark Horse, 1998)
™ and ©1998 Sergio Aragonés

After stints at Pacific, Eclipse, Marvel, and Image, Sergio Aragonés’ Groo came to Dark Horse in 1998. Aragonés, a veteran of numerous humor titles, such as Plop!, as well as decades of drawing marginals for Mad magazine, is in great form as he begins the new series. Once again, Mark Evanier handles scripting duties, making the Evanier/Aragonés partnership on Groo one of the longest in the comics business.

The only thing that seems to have changed in the series is Groo himself. As the series begins, the chowderheaded engine of destruction has become—can it be?—smart! The Minstrel, who has chronicled Groo’s exploits these many years is stunned to catch up with a Groo who seeks peaceful solutions to conflicts, uses strategy and good thinking, and speaks with a vastly increased vocabulary. Has Peter David (The Incredible Hulk) been ghostwriting for Evanier? Or is it something far more sinister…?
