I'm looking forward to hitting it in a similar fashion. This summer I'm trying to get through David's Hulk, 100 Bullets, Usagi Yojimbo, and Lone Wolf and Cub...among other runs. Probably Priests Black Panther too. We'll see how many of these I make it through.

Usagi Yojimbo.... another book that's stayed with me for more than a decade. Love that book.

Speaking of Stan Sakai, where are the large Groo collections I've been waiting for. Sure, maybe it's just me, but c'mon.

I've been following three "monthlies":

Phonogram: Singles Club
Locke & Key
The Umbrella Academy

These are all quite enjoyable. There was a long gap between issues 1 and 2 of Phonogram, but hopefully, it's back on track now. The second UA miniseries just wrapped up, and the second L&K mini concludes in the next issue.

It's not just you. Any fool can plainly see that Groo collections would be a good idea.

It looks like Groo Treasury editions (They couldn't go with Groomnibus?) start coming out in October:

Awesome! What is that, 12 to 13 issues? I'm in.

Looks like 15, I'm not sure how much space the Destroyer Duck and Starslayer take up:

* Collecting material from Destroyer Duck #1, Starslayer #5, Pacific Comics's Groo the Wanderer #1-#8, Eclipse Comics's Groo the Wanderer Special #1, and Epic's The Groo Chronicles #1-#6.

Wow, IDW is publishing a complete Rocketeer deluxe hardcover in October as well. Amazon knows me too well...
