Bone: One Volume Edition:
The title of my blog is "A month behind..." Sometimes I am a little more behind, like years... Bone finished among 2 years ago and Jeff Smith was kind enough to create 1332 page monster to contained to whole Bone series in reference sized graphic novel. (Again thank you Jeff.)
The Bone cousins are lost in a desert from getting run out of Boneville. They stumble into a land not familiar to themselves: a land full of rat creatures, little and big bugs, dragons, and of course humans. When these three bones enter this new world, it set off a series of events leading to the past to be uncovered, evil reborn, and change for better or worst.
This literature masterpiece leaves me speechless. This is what all comics should aspire to be: fun, entertaining, emotional, suspense... This comic does this without vulgarity or gimmicks. Everyone should read this comic from ages 4-99. If you were buying this comic bi-monthly, you were probably frustrated from the pace this comic was coming out. The end of every issues only causes the reader to crave for more, but in this complete dictionary sized, the reader doesn't have to wait and the price is perfect. Only listed at $39.99, but you can usually find it cheaper online or ordering from your comic book retailer. The art is fantastic. Simple clean lines express emotion and action without the need of color. (But I'm still tempted to buy Bone in color from the Scholastic Books.) Again, you must read this comic, then share it with everyone. It is that good. RATINGS: STORY-10/10 ART- 10/10
