The Groo Festival

A single-issue comic festival from 1993, The Groo Festival brings together Mark Evanier and Sergio Aragonés for a special Marvel one-shot celebrating the beloved, perpetually bumbling barbarian. This oversized issue collects a series of short, humor-filled stories and pin-ups from various creators, all honoring the unique, slapstick world of Groo the Wanderer. It’s a lighthearted, celebratory snapshot of the character’s enduring appeal, offering a fun, anthology-style tribute to one of comics’ most endearingly inept heroes.
