Line 10:
This would make for a frustrating game. But it makes a great comic.
 
''[http://www.shamusyoung.com/twentysidedtale/?p=612 DM of the Rings]'' uses screen captures of the films and places them in the format of a comic book. The comic never shows the faces of the players (although the short-lived original follow up, ''[httphttps://wwwweb.archive.org/web/20131013091255/http://shawntionary.com/chainmailbikini/ Chainmail Bikini]'' did). Instead, we see shots of the films as actions the players are taking.
 
The comic doesn't really satirize ''[[The Lord of the Rings (film)|The Lord of the Rings]]'' as much as it makes fun of the the way [[Tabletop Games|roleplaying]] sessions tend to go, especially the struggle between the [[Game Master]] and players. It's been described as an overall example of how ''not'' to conduct a campaign in general.
