Product Description: The first appearances of Rufferto, Groo`s loyal dog, are available for the first time in over ten years! When the palace dog runs away to seek adventure, he encounters -- and becomes enamored with -- the world`s least intelligent barbarian, Groo! Rufferto thinks he has found a companion for life, but Groo just thinks he`s found dinner. And when a reward is offered for Rufferto, our heroes become hunted by, well, just about everyone. What`s a dumb wanderer and an only slightly smarter dog to do?
Graphic SF Reader Rufferto and Groo go together, well, like nothing has gone together before, and likely never will again. Why does a reasonably intelligent dog decided to take up with a mouth breathing barbarian named Groo? Here we can see why, as the famously loyal canine meets his serv.. err.. master. This is bad for very many people not named Groo or Rufferto.
Viva Sergio. I am a great fan of Sergio. I have his mini series Space Circus published by Dark Horse Comics. Too bad the Groo regular series is discontinued but fortunately Dark Horse reprinted some of the cool back issues. If I have enough money, I will probably get all the trade paperbacks. I managed to get this title only but it worths every kopins you paid for it. It is time to fray. Cheers.
A man and his dog (who's smarter than he is) Groo Houndbook
As should be obvious, this is where Groo the most feared barbarian in the world (feared by everyone who knows his name and face!) meets his trusty sidekick Ruferto, a dog smarter than he is. Fleeing a pampered life into the chaotic life that Groo brings about, Ruferto and his new companion encounter Pal and Drum, the schemers who cut an arms deal with Groo. Of course, they've never learned that the best deal to cut with Groo is to RUN FOR THE HILLS! Groo gets wealthy through no fault of his own and winds up penniless as usual.
Note: the printing quality is generally okay to very good for the series, but this is generally a collection for Groo fans and comic book fans. The binding on some of my copies is broken (these are soft backs) and the print is now and then not the greatest. As a fan, I bought every collection I could, and enjoy them despite this! Not though for long-term pristine collectors though.
Sergio Aragone's the Groo Houndbook Sergio's work with MAD is famous. Yet this Groo Houndbook content a beautiful plot combined with our hero that can "manage" to destroy anything.
This 9-12 yrs rated comic attracts me very much [20+], btw, this one's a very good book to be read and enjoy. Using rasterized color image is another attraction of this book in the abundance of advanced computer coloring comics.
