Groo & Rufferto

Groo & Rufferto by Sergio Aragone  111 pp.

One more Groo graphic novel. This one has Rufferto, the dog, transported to the future by the greedy king's wizard. He is appalled and frightened by what he sees of modern life. While he's gone, Groo brings things to a standstill in their own time because he wants his dog returned. He blocks the bridge and won't let the King's soldiers & tax collectors across to do their jobs and won't let the merchants and townspeople cross the other way to get to the town. Once again, Aragone makes wonderful social commentary in classic comic book style.
