[Groop] Tabloid Cartooning

Hi Folks!

I forgot to mention that at the Gropo panel we learned that Sergio is doing
a weekely feature in the "Weekly World News," by far the cheesiest of the
Supermarket Tabloids.  He's doing a one page cartoon in which 10 items are
hidden.  This week it was 10 feathers.

So, of course, I will have to track down all the past issues he's
contributed to (The last 10, I think) and buy it every week.  The drawing is
spectacular, needless to say.  Sergio's response to being invovled with a
publication that has headlines like "Moon to Explode in 6 Months" and
"4-Armed Boxer Smashes the Competition" is the following:  "Obviously, it's
a humor magazine!"

After skimming it a bit I think he's right.  It IS a humor magazine, as any
fool can plainly see!

Take care all -Gary G.

PS  It's going to be so embarassing to buy it at stores where people have
known me for 20 years.  On the other hand, I'm a Groo fan.  Nothing can
embarass me.
