I don't know about the deal between Sergio and The Sun newspaper in
Malaysia but The Sun newspaper did invited/bring Sergio to Malaysia in
1997.  Mark, can you ask Sergio about this Malaysian The Sun newspaper
Groo reprints?  (Maybe that's why it stop reprinting it in their
newspaper or the deals was just to promote Groo comics to the Malaysian
audiance).
