[Groop]Con Reports & Spanish Groos

[Gary Grossmann]

Hi Folks!

Thanks for all the great con reports.  I never get tired of hearing them!

Janet, don't forget we want pics of that Chakaal costume!

John!  Washington DC to Ohio & back!  You are getting into Dessesbo
territory!  But tell your wife I've done much crazier things and am still
employed and solvent. Sort of.

And Hey!  When you see someone with the Did I Err? shirt yell or tackle 'em
or throw something.  We wear them so other Groopies can easily spot us.  (Of
course for others, it's a good warning to hide!)  And definitely stop anyone
with one of the rare Groo jackets!!  (If it's not a Groopie, make them an
offer!)

Mike, was that you in the jacket?

OK, as for the Spanish Groos (exasperated sigh.)  Do I count these quasi
"publications" as official reprint publications of not?

You see, thanks to my good Spanish buddy René, I've got all 24 of the black
and white reprints of Groo put out by Forum.  (Not to mention all of the
high quality trade paperbacks he procures for me.)  And my other wonderful
Spanish buddy, Dani, has offered to fill in for René anytime that may be
required.

Well, René ran across one of these ersatz trade paperback (#3) at his comic
shop and bought it and sent it to me.  And as Dani indicated was the case,
the comic store owner really didn't know much about it.  Well, upon close
examination, it's six of the actual comic books that have been glued
together at the binding with a non-original cover, no indicia page, no
nothing, really, again as Dani indicated. One of the books still had a price
sticker on it from when it had been on sale as a single.

Oh heck, I can't decide.  I'll have to mull.  (Closely related to mulching
as far as my brain is concerned.)

Take care all!  -Gary G.
