[Groop] Scooping GrooFest

[Gary Grossmann]

Hi Folks!

OK, here's the deal on that issue.  The current problem/hold up is that Dark
Horse doesn't want to publish them in comic book size.  The current fashion
apparently is to put out TPB's in the smaller, more book-like size which is
what bookstores want and also theoretically helps to sell more.  However, it
also means shrinking the art, which Sergio & Mark refuse to allow.

Sergio said that if Dark Horse didn't agree to publish them in the same size
they have always been published in that he would self publish them and he
would start over with the Groo Adventurer.  This would be pretty cool since
A-G, put out by Marvel, are very hard to find.  Unfortunately, Self
Publishing sounds like a lot of work and would take away from comic book
creation time.  So hopefully, Dark Horse will come to its senses and do what
Sergio wants.  Geez!

Take care -Gary G.
