Comic 1087 - Cirith Ungol

There lurks a beast in Cirith Ungol
In atmosphere gloomy and fungal
Her heart black as night
Who quotes... EB White?!
When spinning her spiderweb jungle.

My laptop: delivery missed.
Well I won't just sit here and be dissed!

Classic comic 483 - Fiction Rule of Thumb



If you're making up words by the barrel
For characters' food and apparel
I'll know in a jiffy
Your novel is whiffy
Unless your name's Tolkien or Carroll.


Original comic here.

Or Lear, of course!

Classic comic 760 - Moria



Behold, we approach Khazad-Dûm
Where the Dwarves met their end in the gloom
In the mines of Moria
Not shadow and fire
But short, stubby legs wrought their doom.


Original comic here.

Another Tolkien-inspired comic and limerick, to go with the one about Sam G from the other day.

Comic 847 - Stingray Nebula



If you're bearing an arduous load
Like Sam did in Sauron's abode
You can find succour knowing
Your star's always glowing
So long as it doesn't explode.
