Visitors to the TORN panel at Comic-Con got a sneak peek at a very exciting adventure, and now it’s time to let everyone know. TORN has teamed up with TheHobbitBlog.com to send Gandalf around the world with our Gandalf World Tour!
The Gandalf World Tour is a year-long, global event that kicked off at our Comic-Con 2011 panel and will conclude at Comic-Con 2012. TheOneRing.net is managing and supporting the event and hopes fans like yourself will choose to participate!
