Description
This is one of those questions about Smeagol/Gollum's character which keep popping up in my friends chats around a tea table. There's been up to 5 persons who asked me what I though about Smeagol's "wholeness" after Mordor interrogatories...Of course I don't know (How would I?) But I make a guess here...Related content

Ough riGHT AT THE CROTCH! Poor Smeagol... He's suffered long enoughΒ
i like how you did the ninth panel though XD And ive no idea why but it kinda amuses me when you draw Frodo with a slight feminine demeanour

YEP!
That was the last thing he needed...ughhhn
Hahahah I just can't help it! Frodo is so timid and scholarly hobbit...I see him as acting more corteous and delicate than rougher others who have a more farmer-like style of life...hence why his slightly "feminine" behavior at certain points! ^^

True. Why must you always be so buff on him, Sam!
And about Frodo, I wholly agree with you on that XD And it really suits him tbhΒ

Hahaha...neither had I (or, well...assumed the "worst" wasn't done to our poor SmΓ©agol) but my friends seemed to worry about the subject...so this one was "dedicated" to them XD

I'm finding myself a little worried about the kind of mind that would worry about this. XD

Ah, me as well...that's why I turned it into a joke...
My friends seem to be even nerdier than I am...and SmΓ©agol's "private" intrigated them so bad that they started a whole discussion about him being "deprived of IT" by the orcs in mordor, or not...
I found the discussion all too strange, since we're talking of a fictional character, and since it'd fiction, and nothing on the subject was said, then we can assume it's the same, goddarn it, just believe what suits you most!!!
But no. They had to discuss endlessly over it...and take me as a war hostage, trying to turn me on favor of one of the two hypothesis, since I'm SmΓ©agol's greatest fan---sheesh...
It was all so silly that I drew thsi strip in conmemoration of the silliest question ever asked to me.
Also, I think my friends are kinda twisty, for wondering so much over that...

LOL. I Love the internet sometime. I mean, you would NEVER get a conversation like this in real life. Even in the geekiest of conventions. It's like...Of all the things to talk about. Of all the things I never wanted to think about. XD

Here's where I blush to death and go hide on a hole in the ground...
This conversation took place in my house, actually.(Yes, my friends are pure breed nerds)...Not internet...
But true...THAT precisely, I'd never thought about...I mean...does it really matter?...AND WHY??? Of all questions, WHY THAT ONE?
π: 0 β©: 1
XD. Oh man. I love that.Β
I just love the fact that someone was watching TV or something and this question pops into their heads. XD

I knowss, I knowss...It sstill hurtsess...

Oh sam!
You always have to do such things to Gollum!
π: 0 β©: 1
It's like he can't help it...

Yeah...Sssmeagol WAS whole, preciousss...But maybe now he's NOT, after that incident

Hilarious

I see him like a scholarly-guy tipe...so I imagine that he would've blush a lot in situations as such...
π: 0 β©: 0
Yeah. Poor Smeagol, though...

This one is VERY weird... to say the least... actually the weird thing about orcs is they are very stupid and easily distracted. Too bad Smeagol didn't really have anything good to distract them with... he probably would have gotten away much sooner... BTW did you ever read Tolkien's other Middle Earth stories? I tried to read the Simarillion, but yikes... it's like reading a REALLY convoluded history textbook... I did like "Children of Hurin" though... it does a good job of explaining how truly screwed up the Peter Jackson films are, and exactly why. My explaination for what is going on there is that given Tolkien's own "logic" about how the Red Book was written by those present, and of course they had bias too... we all know Frodo was raised by Bilbo, and he... had a certain "flair" about his stories. Also Tolkien then "translated" them. So here we have two levels of distortion already... then Jackson adds yet another level of disortion... yeah... so now we are very far from any sort of "history" that might have been there.

Hm...I'm very short of time lately, and of money...I still don't have The children of Hurin, and have read the Silmarillion...But it's heavy for me also.
I'm in a moment of my life where I simply draw what pleases me to draw, and work the rest of the day...If I say otherwise, I would be lying...
