Bilbo #3

Bilbo #3 (1992, Epix) delivers a pivotal moment in the journey as Bilbo and the dwarves reach the Lonely Mountain, where Smaug’s death sets off a chain of events. With Thorin claiming kingship and the mountain’s treasure now free, forces from across the realm converge—only for orcs to launch a sudden, desperate assault. As humans, elves, and dwarves face the threat together, the fate of the mountain hangs in the balance. Written by J. R. R. Tolkien, Charles Dixon, and Sean Deming, with art and inks by David Wenzel, and lettering by Jan-Erik Höglund, the cover by David Wenzel captures the storm of conflict rising at the peak.
