DM of the Rings

I laughed my way right through this, even though I Know next to nothing about D&D:  8)

Lord of the Rings is more or less the foundation of modern D&D. The latter rose from the former, although the two are now so estranged that to reunite them would be an act of savage madness. Imagine a gaggle of modern hack-n-slash roleplayers who had somehow never been exposed to the original Tolkien mythos, and then imagine taking those players and trying to introduce them to Tolkien via a D&D campaign.

Yes, the whole epic in webcomic form, with stills from the movies matches with some very original dialogue.  :P
