Sergio Aragonés Groo the Wanderer #31

Sergio Aragonés delivers a wonderfully chaotic cover for issue #31, showing the lovably hapless Groo standing obliviously in front of a towering, groaning pile of swords, axes, and assorted weaponry that seems ready to topple at any moment — with his faithful dog Rufferto at his side and a startled-looking figure lurking to the left. The story is titled "The Arms Deal," which pairs perfectly with that teetering mountain of blades looming over our wandering barbarian. With Aragonés handling both pencils and inks, Mark Evanier co-writing, Tom Luth on colors, and Stan Sakai lettering, this 1987 Epic Comics entry is Groo at his cheerfully disaster-prone best.
