In 71 (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0071.html) one goblin is carrying two boxes. One clearly has "DVDs" written on it. The other has something like "Magic T*" written on it but I can't quite make it out.

Tomes. That is, magic books.

Ah thanks. I guess the joke is the contrast with DVDs.

It's more of a moving joke. Before digital content (back when mammoths roamed the Earth), the two largest stacks of boxes were your books and your movies, followed by tapes or CDs or even vinyls depending on your taste. Rich was just riffing on that.
