I'll dig through the archives then, thanks. I don't have much to say, just looking to do some reading.

I remember an issue of Groo where foreign-language speech was just the same word repeated in different languages. Probably wouldn't've noticed except they had some person saying "djup syvä" - or probably "djup syva". I wonder if the technique was used more than once? (I only own three issues of Groo.)
It's a series I remember borrowing issues of from friends in the 4th grade, and having a good laugh. Then decades later, I stumble my way back into reading comics, and learn that it's still going. I saw some yt vids on Sergio Aragones, and learned that Groo is supposedly the longest running creator owned comic book. And that Aragones provided delightful drawings for drat near the entire print run of Mad Magazine.
He seems like a delightful guy, judging from little interview snippets. I get the vibe of the kind of person who brightens people's mood whenever he's around.

Covid gave us an at home comic con, with a panel by the folks behind Groo.
