Knights of the Dinner Table Illustrated #5
In "Diminishing Returns," the Knights of the Dinner Table face off against Rotgut the Wyrm in a showdown that’s equal parts absurd and deadly. Teflon Billy, ever the showman, bets the dragon on a wine tasting—offering up the party as slaves if he loses—then quietly slips a Polymorph to Insect potion into one of the bottles. As the dragon’s reaction turns predictably chaotic, the group scrambles through the hoard, only to find themselves arguing over old adventures. With art by Brendon Fraim and Brian Fraim, this 2001 issue delivers the series’ trademark mix of dungeon-crawling chaos and irreverent humor.
