Groo Meets Tarzan #[nn]

In a wild mash-up of absurdity and adventure, Groo sets off in search of the best cheese dip in the world while Tarzan tracks a mysterious dark ship through the jungle, all converging in the forgotten realm of Pal-ul-don—where reality bends and chaos reigns. Written by Mark Evanier and illustrated by Sergio Aragonés, this delightfully off-kilter chapter blends sword-and-sorcery thrills with the creators’ signature humor, as two iconic adventurers and a perpetually hungry warrior collide in a story that’s equal parts jungle mystery and surreal comedy.

In this wild jungle twist, Groo—driven by his unrelenting quest for the best cheese dip—stumbles into the lost land of Pal-ul-don, where he’s quickly spotted by Tarzan, who’s tracking slavers through the ancient realm. Meanwhile, Sergio Aragonés finds himself in a surreal California safari park, navigating a curious pair of lions, while Mark Evanier gives up the search, overwhelmed by the chaos of a Comic-Con that never was. As the two heroes converge in a forgotten world, danger looms—unseen and armed—just beyond the next shadow.

In the wilds of Pal-ul-don, Tarzan faces down slaver scouts with help from an eager but clumsy Groo, while back in a forgotten California safari park, Sergio Aragonés—still covered in garbage and sporting a raccoon pelt—continues his misadventures. With Candy Brown joining Mark Evanier in the search, and Groo momentarily distracted by Ungara’s legendary cuisine, the paths of chaos and jungle adventure begin to collide in unexpected ways.

In "Groo Meets Tarzan Chapter 4," Groo’s quest to rally an army for Tarzan takes a bizarre turn when he arrives in Ungara less concerned with battle than with satisfying his insatiable appetite. Rufferto gathers a motley band of warriors and thrusts Groo into the role of leader, setting off on a chaotic journey back to Tarzan—only to be interrupted by a sudden invasion of Comic-Con cosplayers storming Safari Land in search of Sergio Aragonés, who’s been lost in the park since issue #1.

When a downpour floods the jungle, Rufferto ducks under an elephant’s bulk for shelter—only to discover the massive creature is already a crowded hub of anxious, rain-soaked animals all vying for space.
