[Groop] This is the end.

[royalslik at aol.com]

Pardon the out-of-touch question, but what is Solo, how many issues has 
Sergio been involved in, to what extent and does Groo appear?  There'a 
comic shop on the block that my office moved to in manhattan, so I am 
definitely getting this issue #11 next week.  Thanks in advance.

   Ok, I'm in.  I'll buy a couple Solo #11s.  I'll inform the local 
comic shop
today.
