<DIV>Thanks Gary.....I guess my best chance for a sketch is to go to a con.....I
hope there's a con on the east coast he'll appear at.....an "8 x"11 sized sheet
of paper would also be good to slide as a cover to a card binder....I hope he
goes to a con in Florida soon!!!</DIV>

<DIV>1. Do you guys think that Sergio would be open to sketch a cover for
binders if we send them to him? If he would do
them for any fee or any costs he might have for him to
produce a personalized sketch for the loyal Groop members who
collect the Groo cards? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff size=3>Well, no. See, that sort of thing takes
things from the something-for-the-fans department and into the
business-side-of-things department and that department gets complicated.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>2. How many are we in the Groop anyway? 20-30
members?? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff size=3>Actually, I think it's closer to 150-200, but
most are lurkers. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>3. I don't know if he has a policy for sketch requests by mail...</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff size=3>He doesn't do them. He can't do
them. If he did he would never have time to do his work.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff size=3></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff size=3>Try to make it to a Con that Sergio goes
to. Make the trek to WonderCon or San Diego. He'll do a little
sketch in a Groo book or if you want more he'll do a drawing over night at a
price that is determined by what you want. (If you can't find an already done
drawing for sale in his book that he will personalize for you.)

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>4. but I would definitely pay for one of Sergio's fast Groo and
Rufferto sketches on a binder. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff size=3>If you get to a Con, he will do a quick little
Groo & Rufferto sketch on your binder, especially if you tell him you are
a Groopie. I saw him sign a coffe mug, a baseball, a shoe, and a
sling at the Con this year. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Any type of sketch of Sergio's would be a beautiful cover presentation
for the Trading card collection we loyal Groop fans have in out
collections. I would pay extra for a Chakkal and
Dakarba too!</DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff size=3>I like that Card promo on the cover
idea. I'm gonna do that myself. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff size=3></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV> Gary, do you know if Wildstorm ever had any
plans to produce any kind of binder for the trading cards??</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#0000ff size=3>I don't know, but they didn't produce one, so
my guess is no. btw, it was Sergio & Marks intention that they be
stored as Ryan described so the multicard drawings could be appreciated.
