The thing is (or will be when it's done) print ready, and it would cost them nothing to stick it on Lulu or RPGNow.<br /><br />But then, I still don't understand WotC ending sale of their PDF's. The only reasonable explanation I can think of is that they discovered <i>they</i> don't clearly own the rights to some of the material. That's just speculation on my part.<br /><br />I may in the end publish the notes in such a way that an owner of the LBB PDF could usefully interleaved the two documents, so as to have the notes and text on facing pages. That's the best legit publication method I can think of.Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12096724870715714696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8066179905250164861.post-14450023601486430282012-04-14T00:37:13.767-04:002012-04-14T00:37:13.767-04:00Cool idea.

It replaces the original by Bell. A piece by Tom Wham was also added to Vol 2 to replace the Balrog entry.<br /><br />While Bell's art mimics comic book art in some cases, I don't think the source for all of them is Strange Tales. For instance, <a href="http://zenopusarchives.blogspot.com/2012/03/obscure-art-friday-balrog-by-greg-bell.html" rel="nofollow">the Balrog art on page 13 of Vol 2</a> may be inspired by a Black Panther comic.Zenopus Archiveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14069501995927451558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8066179905250164861.post-25209341885520506062012-04-13T10:15:04.135-04:002012-04-13T10:15:04.135-04:00This is an excellent idea Paul.This is an excellent idea Paul.DHBoggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02170439175265397893noreply@blogger.com
