[Groop] What made you love Groo?

[Börje Karlsson]

My first contact with Groo was in a friends house going through a
stack of old comics from a cousin of him. Most of them were really
directed at kids but there was this Groo: O Errante (the title used in
Brazil) issue.

I started reading it and, as many in the groop, was instantly hooked.
I especially liked the Brazilian Portuguese translation of the title
as it means both "the one who errs" and "the one who wanders around".

ps: Mayonaisse is one of man's greatest inventions, but feeding only
of it..... eeew

Best,
Börje
