What does a god do when his followers stop following? Easy: He makes them follow. Ravenous the Insatiable (one of your greedier gods) and his minions do godlike things to his flock. That is, until the godforsaken warrior named Groo shows up. Then the new order of Ravenous faces a challenge, and all the believers suddenly believe it's time to flee. With lettering by Stan Sakai, coloring by Tom Luth, and yet another actual, real letter column by Evanier, it's a treat for anyone smarter than Groo . . . which is, of course, everyone.
A couple of months between issues hasn't diminished what Fray of the Gods is doing and I think a bit of a break actually helped me some in enjoying this installment a bit more. The series has been a bit thicker in some ways than others and it's a bit of an adjustment to get into it, which is a welcome challenge. The fun here in seeing Groo being used as an emissary of sorts means the blowback will be profound and I can imagine the fourth and final installment coming up will be pretty well packed to get a whole lot going into it considering the events above and below. I'm still a bit wary on this miniseries overall, having enjoy the previous twelve-part series more, but any Groo is good Groo – unless you're on the pointy end of his sword. Read Full Review
