* not comics: Mike Ploog's Fellowship Of The Ring drawing. I don't know if I've ever seen this specific piece of art, as the movie-poster version seems different design-wise.

I actually don't have any problem with George Lucas doing whatever he wants to with his creation, and actually think he's buying a weirdly specific kind of immortality this way. I think I may be fully out of the game of anticipation/disappointment/cathartic joy now. It took a while.
