A Web Comic and more

DM of the Rings is a web comic of a special nature. It's the story of a group of Dungeons and Dragons players, being lead through a huge campaign their dungeon master has created. To us the reader, that campaign is J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, but to them it's something entirely new (although that doesn't make it a particularly good campaign).

The other neat thing is the artwork. Shamus Young has taken single frames from the recent Lord of the Rings films directed by Peter Jackson, and attached speech bubbles and the like to them. He is currently about half way through The Two Towers.

If you're not a role playing gamer, or you don't know any, a lot will likely go over your head. At the same time, I still think most anyone would find something to appreciate.

This is me waiting and writing at the coffee shop.
