Summary: Not the best moment of Groo
Comment: Though Iam a big fan of Groo and I am reading groo since small, it is hard for me to dismiss a groo book but this is indeed not the best effort churn out by it's writer Mark Evanier.
The story is quite redundant, and at first is quite interesting.Bit as you ride along with it, you will found out the story is just going nowhere.It is just plain bland and boring.
This book is about Groo who swear not to use his sword anymore to kill! And a bunch of profiteers, like the coffin maker, and government skunks who keep taxing people for it's own ends. From there, the story trudges,which I find repetitive! Its simply not good. I have seen, and a lot of them, the best works of Evanier from Groo before.
Still, as a Groo fan, I suggest keep on buying other books of Groo to make us all happy.

Summary: A very funny graphic novel
Comment: Groo is a barbarian's barbarian: muscular, an expert swordsman, and incredibly *less* intelligent that his faithful canine companion, Rufferto. When certain people realize what a moneymaker Groo can be for them (Morose the Undertaker, the King who raises taxes to increase the army, merchants who supply the army with supplies, etc.), they begin to love him. However, when Groo realizes that killing people has made him unpopular with most people, he vows to never kill again. Disaster! Morose and the King need a new target for the war machine, and strangely, Groo turns out to be just as deadly when honoring vow!
This is a very funny graphic novel. The artwork, which reminded me a lot of the old Mad Magazine issues, caught my eye, and the story kept me reading. If you want a funny, light-hearted (and light-headed) read, then this book is for you!
