Do you know what's nuts? He's well respected within the industry as an editor - he's worked with many of the luminaries of science fiction and fantasy over the years as the editor for Wild Cards and other short story collections.

The main change was the chapter" riddles in the dark" - in the original printing Gollum willingly handed the ring over when Bilbo won the riddle contest. He did attempt other changes but these were rejected as they changed the tone of the book to much. He did make some later edits post Lord of the Rings due to the US copywrite expiring but these mostly changed minor lore details to bring it in line with the silmarillion.

They're still making videos on YouTube at least once a year too! One of the two brother chaps who created it went on to work on the animated show Gravity Falls too.

Ive read most of the pre 1980s 2000ADs at one point or another (my dad had his childhood ones on a big box) but it has been nearly a two decades since I read any so my memory has someone faded.

He's simping for dredd - an explicit satire of authoritarianism and police brutality

It's from the D20 Star Wars RPG, they weren't the most accurate to the cannon even at the time. An interesting historical point is that the earlier West End Games star wars RPG fleshed out a lot of the expanded universe that we know and love and were used as reference material for the expanded universe novels.

Good old d20 Star Wars, I have great memories of this rpg. I loved the maps that d20 modern/future era Wizards of the Coast made.
