I think the Barrow-Wight could have easily racked the contest with such great comics as Battlefield:Middle-Earth, Elvish Costello, and Elvish Presley.

Most bestestly impressed (wish I was artistic!). Shieldmaiden has obviously spent a lot of time in the chatroom recently. Love her line in underwear!

The "I hate Sauron" is the best! Regardless of artistry it's a stitch.

You know, I really ought to turn in my comics..

Pratchett? He's the best comedy author of the century. I mean last century. And this one too, so far.

Ron, is there going to be another competition at any time in the future? My brain is awash with ideas for comics, many of them sure winners... I've only got about four downon paper though. Can we have another one in about half a year or so?

Thank you for the welcome, HerenIstarion! So far it's been most enjoyable and instructive. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

What a difficult task you had, Barrow-Wright!
I agree that the "I hate Sauron" was pretty funny! So many choices, so little time! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Now if I could only draw like I write!!!

How come some of the runner-up comics had no bubbles? Were all the runner-ups just rest of the people who entered? Hrm.

I think the sniffing Nazgul one was good.

BTW-- I'm the one that draw the one with the Aragorn thumbnail^-^;;

***The Barrow-Wight*** · 03-03-2002, 09:17 PM

Bubbles?

The runner-ups were just some of the finalists that we particularly liked.

Gwaihir the Windlord · 03-04-2002, 01:36 AM

Just out of interest; I don't suppose you actually bothered to look at my post, did you, Kittle? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

***The Barrow-Wight*** · 03-04-2002, 07:13 AM

I looked at it. I just didn't answer it because I haven't given it thought yet. But since you need an answer now, the answer is "No, there most likely will not be another comic contest."

Gwaihir the Windlord · 03-06-2002, 12:45 AM

Like, not ever? Years down the track?

***The Barrow-Wight*** · 03-06-2002, 08:52 AM

Most likely not, but never say never.
