  • Print Length: 148 pages
  • A graphic novel of the enchanting prequel to The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit - the classic fantasy that inspired Peter Jackson's major motion picture trilogy.
  • When Thorin Oakenshield and his band of dwarves embark upon a dangerous quest to reclaim the hoard of gold stolen from them by the evil dragon Smaug, Gandalf the wizard suggests an unlikely accomplice: Bilbo Baggins, an unassuming Hobbit dwelling in peaceful Hobbiton.
  • Along the way, the company faces trolls, goblins, giant spiders, and worse. But as they journey from the wonders of Rivendell to the terrors of Mirkwood and beyond, Bilbo will find that there is more to him than anyone - himself included - ever dreamed. Unexpected qualities of courage and cunning, and a love of adventure, propel Bilbo toward his great destiny . . . a destiny that waits in the dark caverns beneath the Misty Mountains, where a twisted creature known as Gollum jealously guards a precious magic ring.
  • This comprehensive edition collects the three-issue series originally published by Eclipse Comics and thereafter augmented with many pages of additional artwork and improvements. Carefully abridged from Tolkien's classic novel, and brought thrillingly to life with striking, evocative art by David Wenzel, this graphic novel is a perennial delight to Hobbit fans old and new.

Good reviews on reddit and amazon. It says first available on Amazon in 2024, but this was originally released in 1989 unless this is a new one?

According to tolkienlibrary [tolkienlibrary.com] (if this is the same book)
Quote :
To coincide with the upcoming The Hobbit movies, a new edition, with six new pages of artwork, was be published on 12 September 2012 by DEL REY - ballantine. With ISBN 978 0 345 44560 5 and a new stunning cover and fine movie like typography, this The Hobbit illustrated by Wenzel is ready for a new generation.

Digital edition released 2024, the physical book and copyright seems to date back to 89 or 90ish?

It was originally published in 2 volumes by Eclipse comics in 1989. It's really good. Beautiful art that I feel is closer to how Tolkien would have made it look. Follows the book pretty closely.

Just how many times will I buy The Hobbit before I stop? At least once more.
