Sergio Aragonés Groo the Wanderer #84

Sergio Aragonés delivers a wonderfully layered cover for issue #84, showing a crowd of wide-eyed children and animals gathered before a puppet theater — its tiny stage featuring costumed puppet figures amid red curtains — while a sword-brandishing, scowling Groo looms large at the left, apparently far more invested in the show than anyone else. The story title "The Puppeteers" pairs perfectly with this scene, hinting at theatrical mischief ahead. With Aragonés writing and drawing alongside Mark Evanier, Tom Luth on colors, and Stan Sakai on letters, this December 1991 Epic/Marvel issue delivers the warmly comedic charm that makes Groo such a dependable delight.
