Come to think of it, a Punch & Judy showdown between Gandalf vs Witch King would be quite funny.

I don't think Gandalf would be too happy with that since the Witch-King's gauntlets would basically be iron knuckles.

Gandalf has his solid oak staff to stave off the Witch-King. We may have a stalemate here.

He won't have that staff if it's a Punch and Judy fight.

And a mace will tear right through a staff, or it could get set on fire.

What? The old wizard would probably have wacked the head off the Witch-King by then with his staff. Take that as a lesson - always respect your elders.

Am I the only one who thinks the WK is badly overrated in the movies & the book?
