Just re-read Out From Boneville, again, this morning.
This is book 1 of 9 of the Bone series by Jeff Smith.
Got into this comic a few years ago, when I won my first and only slogan contest for World Book Day, and got rm500 worth of Kinokuniya Vouchers. Also bought Death: The High Cost Of Living and The Time Of Your Life by Neil Gaiman.
The comic is like, Tolkien doing Calvin and Hobbes.
It's an incredibly brilliant and funny fantasy story. And the art is beautiful.
Some time back, there was some discussion about Bone being made into a movie. The whole thing fell through cos a block-head producer insisted that the Bones have kid voices, and that's bound to be the first of many other changes to make the story "fit for children".
Pity pity pity.
Still missing a few of Jeff Smith's books... Need to do some Christmas shopping for myself.
