Plot

A quest, a war, a ring that would be grounds for calling any wedding off, a king without a kingdom, and a little, furry hero named Frito, ready-or maybe just forced by the wizard Goodgulf-to undertake the one mission which can save Lower Middle Earth from enslavement by the evil SorhedLuscious Elfmaidens, a roller-skating dragon, ugly plants that can soul-kiss the unwary to death-these are just some of the ingredients in the wildest, wackiest, most irreverent excursion into fantasy realms that anyone has ever dared to undertake. For everyone who has delighted in J.R.R. Tolkien's fantasy masterwork-or anyone who's just looking for a good laugh-Bored of the Rings is the all-in-one-volume comic extravaganza that will convince lovers and haters of fantasy that they've finally experienced it all, and that they'll never need to read another fantasy parody again.
