Hi Vaughn (and anyone else who cares!)
The complete list of known international Groos is below, modified for the
e-mail from the Groo List.
The Spanish publisher continues to issue trade paperbacks of the Epic
Series, usually with 6 comics. They also started to issue B&W reprints of
the Epic series in regular comic book form, black & white interiors with an
new cover similar to the original cover.
The German publisher has been putting out the Dark Horse mini-series in
Trade paperback form. In fact, the Groo & Rufferto TPB came out in german
before it came out in english!
The Brazillian publisher did the first DH series, but nothing since then. A
French publisher was at San Diego and was hoping to strike a deal. And as
far as I know, the Malaysian series has ended.
The Turkish total of 8 is a guess. Sergio doesn't know, but I ran across an
ad in a Turkish Conan for Turkish Groo #8.
Take care -Gary G.
