I attended the Emerald City Comicon on Saturday, March 5, 2011 and had the 
chance to meet Sergio Aragones. He is a wonderful person! He even drew me a 
picture of himself.

I have been a fan of Groo my entire life. To actually meet my favorite artist, 
to shake his hand... I have no words to express my delight. Of course, I spent 
most of our short encounter babbling and squeaking. I am so glad to have met 
him!

Originally, I just brought a copy of Groo #10 from 1985 in hopes of getting an 
autograph. I figured the cover art was a good example of why I love Mr. 
Aragones' art; lots of stuff going on, humor, and Groo.

My husband got a Groo cap and Mr. Aragones signed it and drew a little Groo on 
it. Watching him draw was amazing. He is so fast and it just happened.

Later, I purchased a book of art from over a large portion of his career, and he 
signed that for me. That is where he drew himself. Again I was amazed to watch 
him draw so quickly.

Mr. Aragones was even happy to pose with me for a photo. I am so thrilled!
