I recall reading the entire thing as a child and I wanna reread it again because it calls me. I remember it was so good and I feel it would be nostalgic.
I get the feeling you will not be disappointed - this is one of those series that is as appealing to adults as it is to kids, and I would not be surprised if you found your love and appreciation for the comic actually increasing with a re-read. But I don't want to jinx it; do let me know what you thought if you do take a new look!
I only read it as an adult, and it’s one of the best stories I’ve ever experienced
I’m a bit late to comment this, but I thank you for making this.
I remember watching my brother first show me them when I was quite young. I could barely read and I’d just go through them... And it was still an amazing comic. When I found it at my school library when I was in third grade, I was so happy. I read all of them and read them again the next year.I’m trying to get enough money right now to get that 1300 page full book of the series.
I thank you for this review, because your quite the small channel. All of your work on comics deserve much more attention.
Thank you.
Thank you so much, it is an absolute joy to hear such stories, and thanks for the kind words for our little channel!
Fizz_le my 1300 page one comes tomorrow
HI!!👻🎷🎷 and I love bone!!!!
Just ordered it today off of amazon
Bone has long been one of my favorite series. I have the color editions, the black and white editions, the One Volume edition, and I have given the One Volume editions to all of my nephews as Christmas gifts over the years!
I am exactly the same way (as you can tell by this playlist here) and have as many editions of Bone as I could get my hands on. Extending the similarities, I also gifted my nephew the complete Bone, albeit in the colour volumes from Scholastic.
I read up to #6 a few years ago. LOVED THEM! Never finished them because the library I read them in only had until #7. Now, I found the whole series online, may re-read them for nostalgia. Still waiting on that Netflix show!
You have to finish the series and let me know what you thought! 😁 I feel there's a chance you may enjoy it even MORE now, but let's see!
Damn, I'm loving how you go deep on a lot of more obscure books. Great stuff!
Happily, I think Bone has now passed into the global bestseller and legendary statuses 😁
Thank you so much for your kind words of encouragement; I'm thrilled you're enjoying the channel and long may that continue!
Saw all your videos of Bone series and I must say you have done an amazing job in these videos. I’ve never seen such detailed and splendidly made videos of any comics before. Keep up the good work 👍🏽 tempted to pick the one volume paperback version after seeing this series.
Vikas Sehgal thank you so much! It really makes my day to read a comment like this, and is very encouraging.
Re:Bone, yes, if you like the black and white, the one-volume edition is unbeatable ‘bang for your buck’! 😀
I read the Bone omnibus in a day. I picked it up to start it while getting up on a Saturday, and then it was eight hours later
Sounds like it was a good day! 😁
Yay! I was waiting for this vid for a long time!
Djeizo I’m glad to oblige! What do you think of it?
Wow, this was a very well done look at Bone. I'm long removed from reading comics, but I'll check out some of your other recommendations after watching this. :)
Thanks so much! I'd love to know what you think of any other videos you do try out!
This made me start watching the Love of comics
And we're very glad you did! 😀
Bone is the best comics ever
I would not disagree! 😁
A very quick look indeed. Looking forward to the next video!
Thanks Adam! I have some closer looks at Bone issues coming up. With this intro, I ran into a host of technical problems, and gave away some major spoilers rambling, so a lot of footage was unusable, making this zippy! What do you like better, shorter or longer 'What is ...?' videos?
Short and sweet i think works out well. Not so much detail that it feels like a lecture, or overly long.
Thank you. Well done.
joanofarc33 Thank *you* for watching! 🙂
Fascinating!
What is bone?
Baby don't hurt me. Don't hurt me.
No more.
Can you imagine the possibilities if I covered this?
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love_Is_Love_(comics)
Do your worst
Change 'hurt' to 'bone' for lols
And I love this series
Oh yeah i remember this my dad showed it to me when i was like 7 years old. Then i mean the Book
I always pitch this series to people as "imagine if Garfield had to help Frodo and the Fellowship destory the Ring"
I may use that! Maybe I can keep using variations. Charlie Brown, and Chico Marx, and ..😁
Pretty cool!
I remember reading these and them being popular at my elementary school, havent read them since. That Was probably around 2005 so 4th grade or 3rd. I plan to reread them though now that I'm older haha
When you do revisit them, I'd love to know what you think of them as an adult!
such a fantastic saga. I could still see this translated to a movie trilogy or video game franchise someday, if the artists are bold enough
I could be wrong, but I think there's a Netflix show coming soon!
I read all the Bone GN when I was in middle school and boy it was a great series. I remember going to my school library to get the next book so I can read it two or three times.
It's an absolutely peerless story that I praise every opportunity I can get, including my most recent livestream last night 😁!
Wow I’m amazed
Thanks for recommending, i finished it in 3 days, it was excellent!
Great to know you liked it! Did you read it in black and white or colour?
I read it in black and white. The one volume edition was quite affordable to get. I didn't expect the eerie dreams but thats what excited me the most. It's the first fantasy work I've read. Any other recommendations?
Oh, this whole channel is recommendations! 😁 Have you checked out my Top 10 videos? Of course there are hundreds of books in the Shelf Videos that I briefly describe, so that is also an option?
For the Love of Comics Yeah, i have checked out most of the videos! I have even noted down many titles to research more on them. But now, its a problem of plenty!
@@kurtosis4573 Always a good problem to have! 😁
Nice video. Thanks. :)
Thank *you* for watching!
Ty love bone, 1 of the 1st comic I've read
Ah I'm jealous of people who read it as kids, I was all grown up when I discovered it! How old were you when you first read it?
@@ftloc I think I was 6-7
Sensational run down ! I think I’ll pass as I have too much artistic material to enjoy in other works. I will circle back around and learn about Tin Tin I get the impression you will rate it very highly and I’m curious to learn much more .
Thanks so much!
Yes, there's never any dearth of good reading, is there? I do love Tintin and have since I was a kid. So sometimes I wonder how much that childhood nostalgia has to do with it (it doesn't eventually matter, just a thing I'm curious about). _Bone_ , on the other hand, I read as a full-fledged adult and loved with no caveats, so there's that for whatever it's worth! 😁
Going to pick up Adventures of Bone at the library today. My first exposure to Bone :) .
Yay! Do let me know what you thought of it once you're done! 😁
@@ftloc For sure :)
Hey I finished reading Out from Boneville. What a great comic book. I want to read more of the series. I love the characters especially the main characters such as Fone Bone and the rat creatures. The world building is excellent due to home simply it is and also the fact that we, as readers, don´t have to be hung up on any timelines. The Rat Creatures are interesting. They remind me of spiders but in the shape of Cousin It from The Adam´s Family. The Bone series, I believe, is just fine as a series and not a show or movie adaptation. Thanks for your introductory video and the time to write back. :)
I found bone but can u do a video on What's Micheal and gone? Please?
Im super late to this series, but it looks awesome! I was wondering, what is the chronological order to read the books?
The collected volumes go like this:
Out from Boneville
The Great Cow Race
Eyes of the Storm
The Dragonslayer
Rock Jaw: Master of the Eastern Border
Old Man's Cave
Ghost Circles
Treasure Hunters
Crown of Horns
In this video, I show which singles make up each volume, if you're interested: czcams.com/video/sa7GKFFcGbc/video.html
and a look at the one-volume edition here: czcams.com/video/2p-wBolWTBM/video.html
Cheers!
Thanks!
@@ftloc where does the Rose comic fit in all this
Rose is a prequel, telling the story of (slight spoiler alert) Gran'ma Ben and the backstory alluded to in Bone. It is also written by Jeff Smith, but drawn by the wonderful Charles Vess.
Would you say it's worth the extra money for the colour edition? I don't mind black and white visuals, but wonder if I would be losing anything without the colour. Or perhaps even the other way around!
Honestly, as lovely as the colours can be, if I had to pick only one, I would choose the original black and white. The depth and shapes really have a different presence and part of the joy of Bone is its artistic achievements within an all-ages work, something that may get a little 'hidden' if colouring it as if primarily for children.
Having said that, if you want hardcover, or maybe (I haven't been able to check this personally) thicker paper, the hardcover colour edition would have those.
What's your #1 priority? 😁
@@ftloc From what you've said I'm definitely going for the black and white! And I get what you mean. Some of my favourite manga lose something when I compare them to a coloured version. Akira for example. Thanks for the wonderful reply!
I can't believe Netflix canceled this show
Yes, i feel bad for Jeff Smith, he's been let down a bunch of times now!
HIII, any BONE by JEFF SMITH collectors here? Do you have an Issue #12 that shows #11 in the indicia , on the inside front cover ? Please and thank you .
Haha you made me go look and, indeed, the indica for #12 says #11! It still says February 1994, not the December 1993 of the actual #11. Sharp eyes!
Bone vs The Sandman Which is better?
Haha what a cage match! Impossible to pick, of course. Bone may be a little more consistent, but honestly it's apples and oranges 😁
I'm from 2018
hi
Greetings!
Boneville must be a graveyard!!
It's good thing they got out then! 😁
@@ftloc indeed😄
Goku
I guess he had a bone er
