Frodo is a much better character in my opinion. Bilbo doesn't suffer like Frodo does. Frodo's story is so much more interesting than Bilbo's - although they are both part of a whole - they can be treated seperately.

Once Bilbo jumped into his adventure after his initial sluggish ways he jumped right in, right? Frodo was reluctant all along, but performed his duty nonetheless. I think Frodo is a deeper character.
