Groo Fray Of The Gods Volume 1

Product Description

The gods did not bless Groo with brains, only with the ability to battle. Now, they themselves are in conflict over the spirit and future of mankind . . . and it is Groo who becomes the pawn (unwitting, of course) in their war. If the future of humanity depends on the wanderer--who barely qualifies--we're all in a lot of trouble. This volume collects Groo- Fray of the Gods #1-#4, from the Harvey and Eisner Award winning team of Sergio AragonUs and Mark Evanier, with Tom Luth coloring and Stan Sakai on the lettering pen.The gods did not bless Groo with brains, only with the ability to battle.

Sergio AragonUs is the most honored cartoonist alive, having won every major award in the field, including the National Cartoonists Society's Reuben Award, and the Will Eisner Hall of Fame Award. Sergio's first contribution -- A Mad Look at the U.S. Space Effort -- appeared in Mad #76, cover-dated January of 1963. For that same issue, he also contributed the cover gag (the first of many) and his first Marginal Thinking cartoons to be printed in the magazine's margins. He has since appeared in every issue of Mad except for one and has done thousands of his unique pantomime cartoons. He also produced 16 best-selling original Mad paperback books. Sergio teamed with wordsmith Mark Evanier to bring forth the adventures of Groo the Wanderer. Groo quickly became one of the longest-running creator-owned comic book properties, outlasting many of the companies that published it. Sergio and Mark have also produced other comics, including Fanboy, Boogeyman, Magnor, Blair Witch? and an acclaimed series in which together, they trash famous characters- Sergio AragonUs Massacres Marvel, Sergio AragonUs Destroys DC, and Sergio AragonUs Stomps Star Wars. For their comic book work, they have received multiple Eisner awards. The author lives in Ojai, CA.
