New Bone Series

[eastofthemoon]

When I was a kid I read previews of the Bone series in Disney Adventures magazine and remembering being very interested in it. It wasn't until a few years ago when they started to release the coloured versions that I read the story from the beginning to the end. Now, it's one of my favorite comic series.

Which is way when I went into chapters today I was beyond thrilled to find a new Bone graphic novel called Bone: Tall Tales which is about Smiley telling camp fire stories to some Boneville kids. Also, there was a preview for a new Bone novel trilogy with the involvement of Jeff Smith.

It has new characters, and some old Thorn, Grandma Ben and unfortunately no sign of Fone Bone or his cousins. However, I have high hopes for it. ^_^

A new Bone series!? SWEET!

The idea of seeing Boneville and other Boneville citizens is an interesting one. And I've always wanted to know what happened to Thorn after the end of the main series.

Have you ever read the Rose prequel? It details what happened between Lucas, Grandma Ben, and Ben's sister back when they were young. It has a very different tone than the main series; but it's cool to actually see that story play out.

I recommend reading the Tall Tales volume. We get to see Smiely and Bartleby tell stories to campers and it's really cute. (Also, we get to see a detail explanation why the rat creatures cut off their tails but I won't spoil you.) I can't wait for the new series.

Yes! I read Rose and I liked we got to see Grandma Ben when she was younger. It was cool to see the backstory. (I felt so sad when the dog died to save Rose's sister. Should have listen to the Dragon Rose. -_-)

I think I got that book in a bargain bin at the last con I went to (it's called Stupid Rat Tails, right?). It's probably in my large "to read" pile. ^_^;

That poor dog. He died to save an ungrateful psycho. :P
