While children will read <i>BONE</i> for its breathless adventure and sight gags, older kids and adults will appreciate the themes of blind fanaticism and corrupting power."<br><p><b>Entertainment Weekly</b><br>"<i>BONE</i> is storytelling at its best, full of endearing, flawed characters whose adventures run the gamut from hilarious whimsy to thrilling drama. Along the way, Smith's musings... take on a greater relevance than you'd ever expect. Grade: A."<br><p><b>Publisher's Weekly</b><br>Charming, character-driven fantasy with an elegant design and masterful story-telling in the tradition of Walt Kelly, Charles Schulz and Carl Barks. (starred review)<br><p><b>ALA Booklist</b><br>Like <i>Pogo</i>, <i>BONE</i> has a whimsy best appreciated by adults, yet kids can enjoy it, too; and like Barks' <i>Donald Duck</i> stories, <i>BONE</i> moves from brash humor to gripping adventure in a single panel.<br><p><b>Neil Gaiman</b> (author of <i>The Graveyard Book</i> and <i>Sandman</i>)<br>Jeff Smith can pace a joke better than almost anyone in comics; his dialogue is delightful--so are all his people, not to mention his animals, his villains, and even his bugs.<br><p><b>Matt Groening</b> (creator of <i>The Simpsons</i>)<br>I love <i>BONE</i>! <i>BONE</i> is great!"<br><br>
