Re: Of Bombadillos and Balrogs
Durelen is right that cover art done by an artist after JRRTs death (or before, even) cannot be used as proof for or against wings. You must turn to the text. If you relied on artists renditions, you'd soon believe that Legolas wears wigs or colors his hair, for he is seen with several shades of long tresses in the various pictures I have seen.
