Depending on how long WB will take, I may hold it until the movie drops. If it is done well and is popular, first prints will be going through the roof! :wishluck:

 

I think a lot of people have been waiting for an adult 100% CGI film!

Waiting on a Bone movie is like waiting on a Sandman movie - good luck with that (thumbs u

I must admit.. I havent read all of Bone..

 

Do you guys prefer it in B+W or should I pick up the Scholastic series in color?

 

evan, i still haven't made up my mind on this...the scholastic read is awesome! but there are definitely some issues (ie 16) which work better as the original black and white...

 

i don't think you can go wrong with either, personally (thumbs u

doesn't look as unlikely as making a sandman movie, to me :shrug:

i'm not saying its coming out next summer or anything, but...well, i hope it gets made (:

 

i think warner brothers will do better than nickelodeon did (from what i've read)...also, the scholastic copies have been selling like hotcakes to little kids...sounds like a winning recipe for warner brothers if you ask me (:

Went to one of my local stores today, and lo & behold in the new arrivals-box, there was a stack of signed, 1st print Bone's (nothing below #4, though). I grabbed the nicest copies, and walked away with a #1 (3rd print), 4, 6, 9-15 and the Wizard 13 1/2 in NM-/NM condition for $2-3 each - all of them signed, about half of them with little Fone Bone sketches as well.

When I was re-bagging them at home, I came across this on the back of one of the backing boards:

Some sweet pick-ups Mr. Schmidt! :) This #6 though is a reprint. I see the "3rd print" notation on your #1 so I don't know if you knew this or not about the #6. The first print has a red title.
