In Spanish forum Forocoches they are already calling this series "The Lord of
the Nig's" (El Se¤or de los Negrillos, instead of EL Se¤or de los Anillos).

Purists are bothered because acording to the source material, the only blacks
known in the Middle Earth wwere the Hƒradrim from the far South.

They say the last inheritor from Tolkien's IP who cared for the purity of the
franchises and didn't want to license series if they were not faithful to the
source material died recently, and the next in line are said not to care and to
sell happily for any price they want to name. I have not verified these claims.
