Labyrinth: Under the Spell TBP

Graphic novel. Three stories, all taking place before the movie. Hoggle looks a lot younger. Most of the artwork is pretty good.

The Eternal Tournament. Sir Didymus and Ambrosius enter the tournament. Someone named Mariell enters the tournament. She had been in it the won the previous 12 matches,Apparently whoever wins the tournament has to work in the bog of eternal stench. Challenges include archery, spear throwing, etc. There's a lot of cheating that is going on, though, and it all seems aimed to make sure Mariell wins.

Sir Didymus would end up working in the Bog of Eternal Stench area if he wins.

En Guard: Fairies are nasty to Hoggle. He has to clean things for them but ends up trading jobs which is why we find him working around the outside of the castle in the movie.

No!: No is the name of a clumsy goblin and the story is how he got his name. The others keep yelling NO at him since he has a major tendency to be in the wrong place and/or do the wrong thing. He gets fired. He gets kicked out, finds a book and ends up becoming a thief who steals only books. He becomes known as Know: The Almighty Moving Library.

Nice to see backstories.
