Narnia and A Series of Unfortunate Events. Narnia and the works of Paulo Coelho. These might just end up making it even more spiritual.

Narnia and Wonderland.

I would be curious to read what questions people had if they read Magician's Nephew followed by Lion, Witch, and The Wardrobe. As I said, the only question I had was whether or not it was Diggory in LWW (and I still haven't read to the point where that is answered).

Hail, Theoden King! Hark!

RIP Robbie Coltrane. We have lost so many of the actors and they all had such passionate fans.

Interestingly, this character also features in a novel that is considered to be a sequel to H.G. Wells "War of the Worlds".

Okay, let's start with the Black Owl. The Black Owl is Walt Walters. He is the father of superheroes Yank and Doodle. When Walters dons the mask, his children are unaware of his secret identity at first, but they do become the first crime fighting family in the history of comic books. Walters...

What would you be interested in knowing? Not too much is known about some of them. Sky Wizard, for example, has only been seen in 5 comic issues since 1940, that I can find. As for the first one I mentioned, Red Bee, he was actually adopted by DC Comics. They killed him off and he appears as a...

No, but I do love the idea of Sherlock Holmes and company being considered under the 'superhero" category. I was referring to such characters as Red Bee, The Masked Marvel, Sky Wizard, Mister Wonder, Marvelous Man and Marvelous Woman, Professor Supermind and Professor Supermind Jr., Future Man...

There is something to be said for the public domain superheroes and that is they don't get anywhere near the recognition they deserve.

It is essentially those books written in the perspective of the characters and a different font, with perhaps some new art, insofar as I can gather.

Does the Red Book of Westmarch have any one to one real world equivalent or is it just the series as a whole?

I know what the first two names are, obviously, so let me guess "Chase" is your name?

Maybe we would see more mythical figures. Santa is already known to exist, which easily opens the door for things such as the Easter Bunny, Cupid, perhaps even The Grim Reaper.

What if instead of the deplorable word killing everything, it instead sent them to one of these other worlds?

The text of The Hobbit that I am reading starts off with, I guess, a rundown of publication errors, such as incorrect translations of the runes on Thror's map. Also, entire chapters apparently have some problems. Of course, I have not read the whole thing or different versions to be sure, but...

I never knew he dedicated the letters to Tolkien. I'd be interested in an Inklings biography.

Are there "inaccuracies" in the LOTR as there are in The Hobbit?

Interesting. I just started the Hobbit and am well immersed in the description of Hobbiton. I love how detailed it is!

I would also posit that - unless otherwise stated - the stories exist outside of the parameters of the real world.
