Hi everybody, Tom again. We all know dogs love bones, but did you know they also love FONE BONE? Above is Kirby, a french bulldog owned by writer extraordinaire, Tom Sniegoski. Tom and Jeff are working together on the upcoming BONE Tall Tales book. You can read all about that here.

And this is my dog Guinness, he’s a French Bulldog/Pug mix, and he also loves FONE!

HAPPY HUMP DAY EVERYONE!

WOW! Two blogs in one day! Jeff and Steve have completed the cover image for RASL 9 and here it is! Enjoy!

The cover features Nikola Tesla, and the catalog description reads:

“More Tesla this time out! The infamous scientist turns his back on the world that shunned him, and in his final, lonely days spends more time in the company of pigeons than with humans. Tesla’s descent into madness parallels RASL’s search for clues to the Multi-verse!”

Hey everybody! Steve and our good friend Terry Moore (ECHO), have been nominated for Eisner’s again this year. Steve has been nominated for Best Coloring with Bone 9: Crown of Horns and Little Mouse Gets Ready! Terry has been nominated as Best Writer/Artist for ECHO.

Here are a few BONE/RASL related links from around the web:

Julian, a student in Mrs. Doran’s class, wrote a book report on his teacher’s blog site. Dig the photo (above) that goes with it.  - – I think that’s supposed to be me!

Julian’s blog can be read here! Keep reading, Julian!

Avish Parashar, a motivational speaker watched The Cartoonist documentary on his local PBS channel recently and was motivated. You can read Avish’s comments here!

RASL vols. 1 & 2 are reviewed by the Portland Mercury and you can read that here.

Also, letterer extraordinaire, and a cartoonist  himself, Todd Klein gives RASL vol. 2 a review on his site.

This is awesome; especially if you’re from Columbus. Columbus through Buffalo eyes. A journalist from Buffalo, NY, that is! An out of stater falls for Columbus, loves the Cartoon Research Library and in the last paragraph, mentions Old Man’s Cave and Bone. This’ll make anyone want to visit Columbus!
Her article for the Buffalo News can be found here.

And last but not least, from Spain comes this awesome drawing from a reader I met at the Barcelona Festival.

He wrote about the signing on his blog. I love the drawing, Andre!
