‘Looking for Group’ #3- More Mischief and Mayhem

Ryan Sohmer’s and Lar DeSouza’s brilliantly entertaining comic detailing the adventures of a hastily thrown together group of adventurers continues in issue #3 of Looking for Group. While there is a quest and a large cast of characters, this book has more in common with a late night pick up group in an MMORPG than it does The Lord of the Rings – and this is a good thing. There are plenty of little nods and homages to both the MMORPG genre and its pencil-and-paper originators ,such as Dungeons & Dragons. For example, in this issue, a slightly befuddled beholder makes an appearance simply to utter a prophecy then wander off to drool in a corner. Mix moments like that with Richard’s antics – and he is the epitome of the late-night jokesters who can be found trolling MMO chat channels from World of Warcraft to Rift – and you get an exceptionally entertaining read.
