Ooooh. What would happen if his dad, Bil got ahold of Groo? Little Billy in
The Family Circus getting into a fray with Dolly or P.J.? Frightening!!

>much he enjoyed reading them. He went on and on about how "expressive and
>beautiful" Sergio's work was and how the stories were so "funny and
>imaginative." I do believe I have successfully converted yet another
>innocent person into a Groopie!
