The Grand Tour

Forgotten Realms: The Grand Tour is a comic published by TSR, Inc. as a limited-edition release. It presents a short, whirlwind tour of the Forgotten Realms, introducing various core concepts and themes, then-ongoing storylines from the novels, and famous characters, and notably features cameos from the characters of the Dungeons & Dragons animated series of 1983–1985, now older.
==Synopsis==
In the 1360s DR, the well-known adventurers, Bobby, Diana, Eric, Hank, Sheila, and Presto visit the Old Skull Inn in Shadowdale so that Presto can ask the great sage, Elminster to take on Presto as an apprentice. Though Presto loses his nerve, the rowdy group of friends manage to convince him to at least. Elminster decides to take Presto on his "evening rounds" where he checks on various ongoing matters.
Together, the two wizards journey throughout Faerûn, seeing several well-known figures in action, getting caught up in battles, and fighting monsters. After returning from the grand tour, Presto decides that he is not quite on Elminster's level, and is content to remain with his friends, but has ideas for future adventures with them.
