Sergio Aragonés Groo the Wanderer #76

Sergio Aragonés' pen is in fine form on this April 1991 issue, with a cover showing Groo — swords at the ready — standing triumphantly inside the shattered hull of a thoroughly wrecked ship, his faithful dog Rufferto at his side, while tangled masts, torn rigging, and scattered debris stretch across a desert beach under a glowing full moon. It's the kind of gleefully catastrophic scene that perfectly captures why this wandering barbarian leaves destruction in his wake wherever he roams. With Aragonés writing and drawing, Mark Evanier co-writing, Tom Luth on colors, and Stan Sakai lettering, "The Mines of Minas" promises the same sharp wit and joyful mayhem that made Groo a beloved fixture of 1991 comics.
