The Hobbit #[nn]

Nov 1990 · Eclipse · 12.95 USD; 17.95 CAD
“There and Back Again”

In "There and Back Again," the Hobbit Bilbo Baggins is drawn into an unexpected adventure when the dwarf Thorin hires him as a thief to reclaim the dwarves’ lost treasure from the fearsome dragon Smaug. Written by J. R. R. Tolkien and Charles Dixon, and brought to life with vivid artwork by David Wenzel—pencils, inks, and colors—this 1990 Eclipse Comics issue captures the magic of the original tale in a striking, full-color adaptation. The cover, also by Wenzel, sets the tone with a bold, dynamic image of Bilbo and Thorin on the edge of a grand quest.
