I remember reading this issue once and never being able to continue because the school library only had this copy. Also Bone thread I guess.
You DID track down the rest of the series and read it in full though, RIGHT?
>>143367627No one outside America knows what this is.
This is their canon voiceshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5HX686N2phI
>>143368742Literally the only comic America has made thats worth a damn, and should be well known world wide...
>>143367627Who's will eisener? And that Disney font?
>>143368803I don't think I can watch thisThere was a cool fan made voiced motion comic of a PK story and when the guy doing Donald finally spoke my brain seized up. I realized I didn't really know WHAT I thought he should sound like, only that what I was hearing was wrongSome comics you spend enough time with, having just the vague semi-voice you hear inside your head, and anything else sounds off
>>143368834will Eisner was a cartoonist, that’s just a typical old cartoonist hand writing.
>>143368717No. I was a dumb kid at the time and didnt know I could buy comic books online
>>143367627What kind of bone is Bone?
>>143369327Hes a bone(r)
>>143368834Will Eisner was a comic strip artist during the 40s and 50s, know mostly for The Spirit and A Contract with God.The Eisner Award is named in his honor because his comics were pretty revolutionary in their respective times.
>>143367627Is this the one where he bones her?
>>143368815Holy hyperbole Batman >>143369489And giving Jack Kirby (and Wally wood iirc) his first job in comics
>>143368803Fone Bone sounds like John Fiedler, which is the right idea, but too old. Gilbert Gottfried is dead so there's no one to cast as Phoney. Overall I think those voices need to be way more cartoony. Right now they sound like the Watchmen motion comic where the one guy did all the voices himself.
>>143370593This guy as Smiley
>>143367627These books are kino. My father knows Jeff Smith, so I grew up with them and a bunch of Bone merch.
>>143370832Is he a cool guy? I remember Wizard interviews and he seemed alright. I most remember the Cerebrus dude wanting to beat his ass though.
>>143370843Who ISN'T on Sim's shit list?
>>143370843I never personally met him, but my dad seems to have respect for him, so I’d assume he’s not an asshole
>>143370863Good point>>143370900Nice to know. He seemed chill last time I read an interview. I need to give Bone a re-read. it's been forever.
Oddly enough I actually discovered this comic in my elementary school library, I don't think they quite understood what was actually going on behind the cover. Good read though.
>>143371034It's a kid's comic, anon. Smith made a ton of money through the scholastic licensing deal and that's how most of these were read.Kids books in general get less scrutiny from censorship(in general, not to say there aren't plenty attempts at banning kid's books). Hell I remember reading Hatchet in fifth grade and being shocked at the detail of the dead pilot's head underwater being picked clean by fish. That was more visceral than even R rated movies I had seen
>>143370843>I most remember the Cerebrus dude wanting to beat his ass though.That's because Dave Sims went to Jeff Smith's house to rant and espouse his beliefs about women in front of the latter's wife, leading to Smith kicking him out of the house.
>>143371110I really need to brush up on my Dave Sim lore. Holy shit.
>>143368742i'm not american and i know what this is
>>143371110Jeff smith is a massive faggot then
>>143371450I mean he's the one who still has a wife
>>143371450Hi Dave
>>143370710into it
>>143367627I'm sad about this animated show is cancelled in Netflix.
>>143367627>>143368742Bone is remembered by its fans fondly.It would be a household name if Fone Bone had ended up with Thorn. You can talk all you want about that being unrealistic, but in the end it was a comic that went on for 12+ years about a heroic little dude that fell for a girl - a girl that ended up every bit as awesome as he'd assumed when they first met - and after they overcome incredible odds he apparently at some point offscreen sat down with her and went "I've outgrown my love for you, let's be two lonely adults and go our separate ways."As unimpressive endings go, that one's a corker.
>>143371582>>143371545Why samefag? Also I hate him more because he went crazy during the trump years.
>>143371189It was quite the gossip point back in the day. There was even a lot of heresay on Ye Olde Internet about tough talk between the two, with the possibility that they'd face each other in a boxing match. Obviously that never went anywhere, and I don't know if any sort of conversations like that actually happened or if it was just online bystanders getting worked up and creating their own narrative of events.
>>143372310It was one of those "Gotta stick to this ending page because it was sketched out at the start of the run" situations.
>>143371450>What a massive faggot, loving his wifehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7VhJ_1bAkU
>>143372310The fact that Fone Bone decided he no longer loved Thorn IN THE UNSHOWN PERIOD OF A TIME SKIP galls me to this day.It'd be like writing a mystery story and then having the Detective's big "here's who did it and why" reveal happen offscreen.
>>143372316It's actually impressive how many artists, writers, etc. lost their goddamned heads during this guy's presidency. There is something so raw about the hate the orange guy caused in these circles. Obviously something psychological, although I can't quite put my finger on what exactly.Also, thanks, OP, you awoke some distant memories in me. Must have read this one for the first time 10 years ago. One of the best american comics I have ever read, and very probably my favourite. For the people saying the ending is kinda lackluster, it did seem so to me when I read it, but thinking back on it now(I should reread it, yes), it might have been on purpose.
>>143373405It's not normal to have such a deranged fuckwit as a major authority figure in your country. It'll fuck with anyone's sense of normalcy.
>>143367627I don't like bone>>143368742that explains why it's shit
>>143373405Maybe some people just don't like children in cages.
>>143368742>No one outside America knows what this is.Our libraries had them all, called "Luupäät" (Boneheads). Bones are well known in Europe.
Before he did Bone Jeff Smith wrote a strip for his collage newspaper featuring many of the ideas that would become Bone. It's getting a collected release in a few months. I think some kick starter backers already got their. I wish I knew. I probably would have backed.
>>143368742>>143374046I'm from the Philippines and you can still find Bone volumes in book stores and school libraries, the latter was how I discovered the series when I was young.
>>143367627I remember Wizard featured this comic quite a bit. I never got around to reading it. I should do that.
>>143373405It's also deranged how much people insist on sucking his cock. It's like he's caused a braindead cult to be formed around him.I can't imagine caring about a politician that much, either way.
>>143375062>>143373997>>143373475Jeff, your faggot ass is seething. Kys >>>/pol/
>>143372763>>143373475>>143373997>>143375062Why samefag and go so insane like this? You proved anons point
>>143373405When you are weened on the manichean morality most prominently found in comic books and movies, a dude acting smug and belligerent and not getting his end-of-episode-comeuppance can fry your wires a little.
@143375342>He’s still going Take your meds.
This is why nobody wants to work with you Jeff. You’re boarderline schizophrenic.
What happened here?
>>143376521Jeff smith, while shilling his comic, predictably went off the deep end as he always does over menial shit.
>>143376732Jeff would be shilling his new comics if he posted here.
>>143376732>>143377203Sounds like you're the one samefagging
>>143376732I cannot wait until the last few oldfags who use the >hello____thing die off. It stopped being funny 15 years ago.
