[Groop] Groo Treasury

[Yodazone at aol.com]

New Groo Hardcovers would be nice. Dark Horse has been making some real  
nice hardcovers for their other titles lately.  They should  totally make some 
for Groo run.
 
This Dark Horse/Star Wars book they just released,  for  example,  is a 
Slipcase Hardcover that collects 832 pages  of comics into a giant Leather 
hardcover that weighs 11  pounds:

Five or six of these monsters would collect the whole  Groo/Epic (1-120) 
run on new glossy paper.      
They could do that for Groo if they wanted to! 
 
Maybe the recent Groo/Eisner nomination will inspire them to churn out more 
 spruced up collections....

I think [the reprints] should be in … the Marvel Masterworks Omnibus 
[format].  Hardcovers with dustjackets and  contain roughly 30 issues including 
the original letters pages.   *THAT* would be a Groo Treasury to shell out my 
kopins for!   
 
Yeah, something like  that would be way cool.  But apparently the decision 
by the powers that  be at DH was they would make more money selling more 
copies of a less  expensive publication.  I have no clue whether they are 
correct or  not.  I know Sergio has no trouble selling the hardback edition of 
The  Death/Life of Groo book for $30 at San Diego.  They go fast.    
Ah, well, we can  dream…
