I'm not into comics, but I saved about 100 issues as I grew up, and eventually scored a certified Pacific Comics Groo #1 signed by its creator, Sergio.

Today at the show I claimed a copy of Destroyer Duck #1 - noteworthy as the first-ever official appearance of Groo.

Thanks for the memories, Dad!
