Groo: Friends and Foes

In this twelve-issue Dark Horse series from 2015–2016, the legendary Sergio Aragonés (with co-writer Mark Evanier) turns the spotlight on the colorful cast orbiting the perpetually bumbling barbarian Groo. Each issue pairs the dog Rufferto, the Minstrel, Chakaal, Drumm, or the villainous Dakarba with their own misadventures, revealing how they scheme, suffer, and occasionally thrive in a world Groo has left in chaos. Aragonés’s signature cartooning and slapstick storytelling give these supporting players their due, making this a warm, welcome expansion of the beloved comedy-fantasy saga.
