Hi Folks!

Well, it's just too darn quiet on the Groo Line lately.  So here's something
to rile you all up.  (or not)

The weekend before last we was down in Portland visiting my son and we went
to Powell's Bookstore, which pretty much has to be the largest bookstore on
the west coast.  For fun I cruised by the section the have for comic related
books and saw a couple of Comic Encyclopedia books.

One was edited by some guy named Maurice Horn.  So I look up Sergio and
there is a nice article about him that has a familiar ring to it and sure
enough it was written by Mark.  But then there is this little paragraph
afterwards by this Maurice Horn guy.

In it he says that Groo is his most famous comic book and that it has
developed a "vociferous coterie" of fans and despite it's "sophomoric" humor
and "ham-handed writing,"  Sergio's art keeps the book afloat and transcends
these drawbacks.

What a snot!!
