Off topic forum! Feel free to discuss anything non-Usagi related or that doesn't fit within the parameters of the General Discussion forums. Gotta talk about the latest Sci-Fi flick? Need help with your homework? Want to post an announcement of a personal nature? Then here's where you do it!
I dunno when it’ll be out but Sergio brought me pages yesterday and I think we’ll be done with our end of it in a month or so — no all-night binges necessary, at least on my part. (Sergio, by the way, has his medical problems under control but he has had to cancel his appearance at the WonderCon in Anaheim at the end of March.)
Very glad to hear that Sergio is doing better in any case.

In other comic book news involving me: Sergio Aragonés is over his medical problems and drawing pages again for the long-delayed Groo Vs. Conan mini-series from Dark Horse. I expect to be able to announce a release date here shortly. I’ve also just agreed to write a new, unrelated-to-Groo-or-Garfield comic for another publisher and I think they plan on announcing this at San Diego. I’ll try to update you on all this stuff more often than once a year.

Mark made a comment on Facebook saying that the long-awaited Groo Vs. Conan is nearly complete and that work is proceeding on a new 12-issue (!) Groo series.
(Wow, the last post I made here was nearly a year ago!)

Miniseries
It had to happen: The most heroic warrior in history meets the stupidest as Robert E. Howard’s immortal Conan the Barbarian crosses swords with Sergio Aragonés’s Groo the Wanderer in Groo vs. Conan #1. This four-issue miniseries was concocted by Mark Evanier and Sergio Aragonés, aided by illustrator Thomas Yeates and colorist Tom Luth. Will Conan annihilate Groo? Will Groo turn out to be the man who can defeat Conan? We’ll see.
• Comics’ greatest barbarians together at last!
