[Groop] Where was I when I first read Groo<br>Sent: Jul 16, 2009 10:35 PM<br><br>I'm chilean. We don't have enough comic shops, and at the newspaper<br>sellers, only arrives a small fraction of comics published. The formal<br>ones (hardcover) go to some bookstores, at the children's section, (they<br>have a stupid rule that says, "it has drawings, then it's for children,<br>very little ones."<br><br>Several years ago, "Fanboy" came to us. Appeared in the streets, along<br>with newspapers, but not the full collection (it came from Spain, 6 months<br>later!). I loved Aragonés's work, enjoy Evanier's texts (although they<br>were translated, the translator was not a traitor). But for a moment, I<br>hated the importer that brought us the first numbers. With a friend, began<br>the odyssey to find the remaining numbers. That forced me to learn the<br>little comic market (no more than 5 stores in Santiago). And they had no<br>Fanboy... But had
Groo...<br><br>It was a collection of semi-hard cover (6 numbers in one). I believe it<br>include "Island of Felicidad" and I become to "fanboy" of Groo...<br><br>Later, the remaining numbers of fanboy came to Chile, so at least I've<br>that collection complete ...<br><br>I remember that afternoon, in a hidden shop in Santiago, reading<br>(devouring) pages of groo... "¿Habré errado?" is, in spanish, the "did I<br>err?" after any epic fail... I bought all numbers they have... And I go<br>very often and ask for more... but nothing come from Spain (route for<br>Groo).<br><br>But I found Groop... And thanks to the list, I have figures of PVC, a<br>shirt and data to request numbers to co-workers who travel to USA.<br><br><br>-- <br>José Miguel Santibáñez<br> <a ymailto="mailto:jms@nivel5.cl" href="/mc/compose?to=jms@nivel5.cl">jms@nivel5.cl</a><br><br><br>Sent via BlackBerry from
