Added DiffLines:

''The Elf with No Name'' is a fantasy-western comic book series created by Jeff Schiller and Jeff Foulsham, and is a companion series of Schiller's ''ComicBook/MagicPowder''. It was crowdfunded via UsefulNotes/{{Kickstarter}}.

Many years before the events of ''Magic Powder'', the dragons of Delfor have put out a bounty on all fairies, and the elves, longtime allies to the fairies, chose to remain neutral. Disgusted with his people's inaction, one elf chose to teleport to the fairies' homeland Zodiaz in the hopes of intervening.

!!This series contains examples of:

* TheExpyWithNoName: The title is a clear reference to ''Film/TheManWithNoName'', and the series' protagonist is unnamed.
* FantasticRacism: The series opens with the dragons of Delfor offering up a bounty for killing fairies. There are no shortage of individuals from other races willing to try their luck at collecting on that bounty; the first issue alone has the apprentice fight off a gorgon, an orc, and a goblin.
* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: The titular nameless elf chooses to defy his master and travel to Zodiaz to help the fairies, even though his fellow elves chose to be neutral.
* ShoutOut: One of the bounty hunters that the apprentice kills in the first issue is named "Clunt", which is porbbaly a reference to Creator/ClintEastwood, from the ''Film/DollarsTrilogy'', which inspired this series.
* TeleFrag: In the first issue, the apprentice brushes up on the rules of teleportation. Among them is an admonition - "If you teleport into someone, at least one of you will die."
