[Groop]Aragones Pocket books

[Grossmann, Gary]

Hey!  What do you mean "If that's true"?  
 
There are only two covers, one of which is a wrap-around, to MAD on Parade.
I also remember some tiny drawing on the spine that I thought might be Groo,
but decided it wasn't.  I'll check it all out tonight.  -Gary G.   

 
If that's true then I do have all 16. Neat.  Mind you, some I got second
hand. There was one that eluded me. Really pissed me off. Incurably Mad.
Little did I know that it had just been reprinted at that point in time and
I was delighted that I received it as a Christmas present. "Reissued
September 1985" so it must have been Xmas 85 that I got it, before I saw it
on the newsstands (which I had already given up looking.).  Different prints
of Sergio Aragonés on parade have different covers. I've seen at least two.
Mine appears to be the 1979 original, and even at that time you can clearly
see Groo marching with the crowd on the right hand side of the spine. It's
not a Groo-lookalike; the swords give him away.

All Original.
All Sergio.
Circa 1978.
It's about the dimensions of a magazine and as thick as the pocketbooks at
least.  I'll send more details when I get home tonight. -Gary G.
