Comments on: See you at Comic-Con! http://www.boneville.com/2009/07/21/see-you-at-comic-con/ The official website of Bone, the comic by Jeff Smith Mon, 06 Feb 2012 14:53:24 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 By: Jeanette http://www.boneville.com/2009/07/21/see-you-at-comic-con/comment-page-1/#comment-193624 Jeanette Sun, 26 Jul 2009 20:06:34 +0000 http://www.boneville.com/?p=2306#comment-193624 I know what you mean Marcus. It makes us long time fans feel a little put out. But as long as there is a b&w printing I think it may be alright. :D Anyhoo my sister is so cool she just called from comic-con and said that Jeff just signed and sketched a drawing in my b& w Out of Boneville vol 1! and the new dvd! Ah she is so awesome! Say though she made a mistake, Jeff she told you that I had all of the color vols and I only have the first. woops lol. I may eventually get the rest in color. But I'm still hung up on the computer coloring. After falling in love with the look and hand colored covers of each issue and Disney Adventures releases it just isn't the same. :/ Though I prefer the old b/w's anyway since that was the way it was meant to be. And the readers imagination fills in the color that way :) Congrats on the new Bone projects! I hope this means we'll see more of our familar trio in the future along with more stories about Rose! :D I know what you mean Marcus. It makes us long time fans feel a little put out.

I was in your drawing panel yesterday on Comic-Con. It was very interesting! I was a bit disappointed we couldn't see the powerpoint about coloring Bone. Do you think you could put it online on Slideshare.com or here in your site? Thank you! Hi Jeff! I was in your drawing panel yesterday on Comic-Con. It was very interesting!

It's from April. Check out the second last question. Very interesting! http://www.examiner.com/x-5140-Portland-Indie-Film-Examiner~y2009m4d22-A-little-deviation-Jeff-Smith-creator-of-Bone-interview It sounds like he's describing Tall Tales? But I'm confused about what was previously published as one-shots? There's Greed, The Powers That Be, maybe the Bone action figure mini-comics, but none of those were strictly PUBLISHED as ONE-SHOTS. Then there's possibly SSRT, and the new stories Jeff mentions in the interview? I'm assuming Smiley "tell[ing] stories around the campfire" is a frame for the various comics that will be included in the collection, and of course that we still won't see Boneville. Although over here (http://www.aintitcool.com/display.cgi?id=15613), Jeff says "I'm going to try and avoid the temptation to do a Boneville story... But I might." Hmmm, now that that the announcement is made, I can't wait for more details! Hey check this out, I don’t ever remember seeing this interview, or maybe I just missed it. It’s from April.

A major repackaging with new stories by me, and new Johnson Bone stories by Tom Snigoski. The official press release from Scholastic is a little unclear,but I think they were aiming more at their traditional audience of kids and new Bone readers who probably have never heard of SSRT. I'll put up a post to help explain. Settle down, Marcus. These aren't official sequels, they're just for fun! Tall Tales is a repackaging of Stupid, Stupid, Rat-Tailes.

Have we already heard anything about SSRT? (The wording is interesting, note STORIES plural and the author/artist attribution: "written by Jeff Smith and Tom Sniegoski, and illustrated by Jeff Smith, featuring new art and stories with favorite BONE characters.") If it was kind of an "annual," a collection of new stories, that'd be awesome. If it was SSRT, coloured by Hamaker, that'd also be awesome. And then the trilogy... I'll admit Quest for the Spark sounds cool (although "Quest" almost sounds a bit contrived for Jeff). It's being marketed as a trilogy which is an interesting... word choice... since it's being released by Scholastic, and with the release schedule, I'm only guessing that each volume will be roughly the same # of pages as one of the original Bone collections. It really is key to me that Jeff is drawing it... I would even happier if Jeff was writing it, but it does say that he'll be supervising the story by Sniegoski and I would also assume that the story has somewhat originated from Jeff. There's no mention of Steve, but I can't imagine him NOT being involved. I'm sure there's plenty more details to come that will answer many questions. I know that Jeff certainly wouldn't do it if it wasn't the quality, ideas and the way he wanted, so this is definitely very exciting news!
