How I came to love Groo:
I saw Groo across a crowded room. Strains of violin music came out of
nowhere as our eyes met. I smiled and tossed my hair back coyly. He
slayed everyone in the room as we ran toward each other in slow motion.
Actually, not long after Elie and I started seeing one another
seriously, he gave me a Groo to read to keep me occupied for a few
minutes. I never remember the issue number; it was the one with the
puppet shows. I was not exposed to comics or MAD Magazine growing up,
so that was my introduction to not only Sergio's work, but comics in
general. I was amazed at how intelligent the story was--nothing like
what I had been led to believe comics were like. I was immediately
hooked and devoured the rest of Elie's Groo collection in short order.
