Concerning Midgets (LOTR Comedy Comic)

Recommended Posts

Back in October, I started doodling these humorous comic books, each having an average of 10 to 12 pages. It was called [b]Concerning Midgets[/b], playing off of the LOTR saying "Concerning Hobbits". Well, it's a LOTR parody. Instead of hobbits, we have midgets and stuff like that. Well, I made about 5 of them back in October, then stopped. Now I'm back here in 2004 makin' more and I'm up to 7. I'll slowly post each comic book one at a time and you may enjoy what I work on :)

I do warn ya, though. Some of these comic books may spoil LOTR for those who haven't read the books or seen the movies since it follows the storylines a tad bit :<

Anyways, the main plot is Skateron (Sauron-ripoff) made a ring because he thinks it makes him cool like Tony Hawk, but got beat up for bragging about it, and then it was sent off to be destroyed at Mt. Doom by the UPS company. That's the basic plotline, but this thing has become quite the adventure. So sit back, crack your fingers to annoy the people next to you, and ENJOY!

[B][u]Cast[/u][/B]
[i]Midget Joe-[/i] Frodo ripoff and main hero. He has the ring, word!
[i]Wade the Lamer-[/i] Samwise Gamgee ripoff and the idiot sidekick. He's just... yeah...
[i]Skateron-[/i] The main villain (Sauron ripoff) who is not only trying to get his ring back, but is an all-star skateboarder. Rock on!
[i]Gandude-[/i] Gandalf ripoff. He's da shiz, word!
[i]Pimpin-[/i] Pippin ripoff. "OH YEAH!"
[i]Mary-[/i] Merry ripoff. Isn't "Mary" a girl's name?
[i]Skinny Wraith-[/i] The leader of the Blingwraiths.
[i]Small Wraith-[/i] The tough, second-in-command Blingwraith.
[i]Fat Wraith-[/i] The stupid, fat Blingwraith.

Awesome DW! I think your artisticness has come a long way, I thought it was really good how you kept the characters looking the same through out it instead of changing them (which usually happens)

Awesome Idea about it being a LOTR rip-off, Pimpin is awesome!

Can't wait till the next comic!

Well, I've seen your recent movies, and the short one too. And all I can say is they are hilarious. It's amazing how many different ideas you can come up with. Really, not a lame moment in this comic, great lotr parody. It is really good how you kept them looking the same throughout the comic. And the character designs are really well done.

Well, I'll be waiting for the next one.

These often take around 1 to 2 hours throughout my day. Ya see, I mostly work on them throughout classes at school so if you add up all the times I work on them, it's most likely 1-2 hours.

I have 7 of these comics done, but it takes heck of a long time to upload them onto the computer. I'll upload the second one later XD

[color=midnightblue]Yeah, DW's too good to take the time to go through the horribly painful process of darkening the colors via Paint Shop Pro. :p

But yeah, this is certainly a great piece of work, Gavynn. I think that your hand-written comics are better than most of your recent Disasterpiece movies. I dunno, I guess they just have sort of lost their luster. They're still great, and they have some really funny stuff, but this is just.. New and improved, in my eyes. I like the style you used in drawing Skaterman. It really fits his skateboard-obsessive, "Sk8tr speak" persona that he so perfectle emenates.

I enjoy where you're going with this, and I truly hope to see a lot more of your hand-drawn comics in the future.

Just put a little more effort into the drawings. It'll be worth it, I'm sure.[/color]

No effort for u >: o I'm too lazy to put anymore effort into it. If I did, it'd look beautiful, but I don't. Now shut up and here's episode 2.

*laughing so hard I'm forgetting to breath* Oh wow!
*Coughs in an attempt to catch his breath* So ya...
It was an exellant laugh, and I can't wait til the next one.
I'm not sure making the people better drawn would help any, because it actually (in my mind) adds to the craziness, therefore making it more hillarious.
But I'm no artist so what do I know... I just think it's hillarious!
Most exellant job.

[COLOR=green]DW, your creativity and artistic abilities never cease to amaze me. This was a very funny read, and I look forward to the third installment with immense anticipation.

Just one small criticism. Some of the writing, especially in the second installment, was small and hard to read. Mind making it a little bigger next time? I?m sure I missed out on a few jokes and funny statements because of it?

Once again, thanks for the laughs...

Ah, I was expecting someone to finally say that. I just hope no one was too shy to say it before you did. I'm glad you did because I was wondering...

I'll try to make my text bigger in the comics I make in the future, but for now, the 5 other comics I haven't posted, but are made will just be enlarged on my computer. :) New comic tomorrow.

Awsome. Just awsome. I thought the first installment was the best though. I wonder if he knew the ring Tony Hawk was wearing was most likely a weeding ring. But it's better that he fourged a ring instead of a wife. 0_____o Heh that would deffinatly be interesting. I totally need to show this to my Languge Arts teacher. he has a whole board full of pictures from LOTR. he even made us write a paper on Eowyn and the Nazgul. No doubt he would find this interesting. Anyway kaap up the good work. Today's Movie Night right? I thik it is....

And thanks for the comments. If your teacher makes you write junk on LOTR, I want him as a teacher :< I'd get a A for sure :) [/B][/QUOTE]

Junk? I never said junk. It was quite fun actually. He had this awsome picture of Eowyn fighting the Nazgul and we had to build it around that pic. We couldn't use the books. And before the last movie cam eout he showed us perviews for it. It was awsome. that sucks though. iwanted to see mr. T. Oh well tomorrow...

Sorry I haven't posted one in a while, people. I've been very busy with my forums and site as well as Otaku Movie Night, which still has to premier.

Anyways, some new characters appear in this one so enjoy!
