CoinAddict Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Noticed this piece while I was looking for info on previous sale prices of Jeff Smith art. I don't think this piece was mentioned in the thread so thought it was worth posting. Bone Art sold for $3,452.18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac Man Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Well... I am ridiculously late to the party but I finally picked up the 1300+ page all-in-one volume of Bone. Since I'm into using graphic novels and comics in my work (college English teacher and doctoral student), I have a long list of books on my "must read" list of which Bone has been one such entry. Thanks to a Borders 50% off coupon rendering this behemoth a mere $20... I picked it up! Anyhow, can't wait to read this as I've only heard great things about the series.

Mac Man Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I don't think I'll be too shocked. I think what would shock me would be a Marvel/DC book that I'd really want to teach. Seems to me that the best modern books I've read (only in trade format--only real way I read moderns) have been all non-mainstream publishers and/or content (Vertigo is one I don't count even though it IS a part of DC) and Image is sorta kinda mainstreamish but they've really matured from their beginnings to branch off with some really creative material too. So I'm fully expecting great things from this book! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maloney414 Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Quick question about #50. I saw a slabbed copy of #50 on eBay. It says RED FOIL EDITION. http://cgi.ebay.com/Bone-50-CGC-9-4-2002-Jeff-Smith-Cartoon-Books-/300403482786?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item45f17160a2 Were all the #50's this way, or is there a variant? If it's a variant, does anyone know the ratio? There was one other raw copy for sale on eBay that looked the same as the slabbed copy. But there were copies from mycomicshp.com with pictures that looked plain. However, their images looked faded so I'm stuck wondering if it's just the picture.

All copies of #50 have a red foil logo - it's a mistake on CGC's part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoinAddict Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Have to agree but I was wondering if it was actually done by Jeff. Found some artwork from the cards series that is airbrushed on Photostats. So I was thinking that piece might have been done the same way. Regardless of how it was done it is still an awesome piece.

Mac Man Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Ok... I'm about 1/3 of the way through the book and the first thing that jumps out at me is the humor. There are just some aspects of the dialogue that come out of nowhere as a quick aside and catch you right off-guard. The pair of rat monsters really crack me up, particularly the recurring fascination with quiche. I still feel like I'm early on in the character development so still not sure what my thoughts are yet, but overall, an interesting book and at 50% off, definitely worth the $20.

Yeah, it's definitely got humor. I've heard Jeff Smith describe it as a mix between Lord of the Rings and Disney's Uncle Scrooge/Duck Tales.

bazzle-migration Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 I am researching a possible misprint in Bone #12 (1st Printing). The inside cover incorrectly labels it as #11 instead of #12. Has anyone else seen this, or would they mind checking if they have the same issue to see if they see the same misprint? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone else seen this, or would they mind checking if they have the same issue to see if they see the same misprint? As far as I recall, all 1st prints of Bone #12 have the incorrect listing in the indicia. I'm currently not at home, but I can check my copies tonight.

CoinAddict Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 The Color Bone Complete Hardcover has been announced. Looks like they are making 3 different editions of the book. One of them is going to be a very limited edition of 50 that will include a 6" x 9" watercolor by Jeff and Steve Hamaker for $1000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
