[Groop] This is the end.

[Yodazone at aol.com]

I encourage everybody to buy at least 2  issues of Solo #11 from their 
nearest comic shop next Wednesday.  This  series has a real low print run (way under 
10,000) and  if that issue sells out,  that'll show there's a huge demand  
for Sergio's and Mark's work.  DC Comics love to announce whenever any  of their 
books sell out and that'll send a message to comic book  companies including 
Mike Richardson at Dark Horse.   Maybe  possibly bringing back Groo comics 
sooner???
 
      Let's all buy multiple copies,  people!   We could make it happen!   
Only $4.99 an  issue!    Sure, it's a bit of money but we've paid for Groo  
books before and still felt ripped off.....so how 'bout this one  too!?!?!    =)   
  
 
     Oh by the way,  Solo is getting canceled  after issue #12.    Go Groo!

Bite you tongue young man!!!!  ("til it  hurts!!)

You must have faith in the fastest cartoonist and the fastest  wordsmith in
the business!

Besides that, there is no way it's from  either of them being too busy with
other things. They are busy, but I think  they could always make room for
Groo.  My guess is that for some  reason, Dark Horse is pissing around, not
giving Sergio and Mark a good  deal, or something like that, and so things
are dragging out.

Maybe  if Solo #11 sells out super fast that it will let Big Mike & Co.  know
that there is very good market out there for Sergio & Mark  product.

And btw, since you didn't know that Chakaal was a caricature  of Sergio's
wife, Charlene, (former world class Broadway dancer-when you've  danced for
Bob Fosse, you are world class) you probably also didn't know  that Princess
Thaais (Groo #80-#83) is a caricature of Sergio's daughter,  Christen.
Sergio & Charlene met when he was drawing sets for a Los  Angeles revival of
Li'l Abner and she was playing Stupefyin'  Jones.
