The Groo Houndbook

Groo the Wanderer #8

Everyone needs someone to leve them. Groo has (a) his loyal dog, Rufferto, whose first appearances are included in this handsome paperback, and (b) comics fans everywhere who appreciate hilirous stories about the stupidest barbarian to ever swing a sword. At last report, the second group outnumbered the first. But just barely.

How groo and rufferto found each other, hilarious, witty and reaching new lows of dumbness. Love it

A cute little comic about a slow witted barbarian and his dog. It's a short read with some fun puns.

Groo is amazing.

In this collection we get to know how Rufferto joined up with Groo. A classic, if you will.

groo is always accessible anytime , any issue , no need to read in any sort of order , but I'd love to see complete collection or omnibus or library editions in my lifetime

Loved this book about a little boy who will only go to school dressed as a super hero. Finally he has to leave his 'disguise' at home to be washed and face school as "Just Jack" ... And it's ok to be just Jack after all.

Beautifully illustrated (we say that a lot, but really, the illustrations are amazing).

I loved this and so does the 5yo Pink Kid.

Fun stories with a moral. Groo seems to be chaotic neutral where Usagi Miyamoto is lawful good.
