Flipping through the pages of the Disney Adventures magazine, I hunted for the one thing that could satiate my excitement. Nestled between an interview with Cindy Crawford and the latest Bonkers D. Bobcat strip was Jeff Smith’s Bone. I was eager to learn the fates of Fone Bone, Phoney Bone, and Smiley Bone as they attempted to help the people of the Valley and make their way back home. Where comic books were mostly populated with superheroes and their struggles with the villain of the week, Bone offered something different.
The illustrations were a mix of cartoonistic expression and soulful characterization. The fantasyland of the Valley and its inhabitants, such as Granny, the Great Red Dragon, and Thorn had history and depth. Also for my young mind on the cusp of “manhood” Thorn represented the girl of my dreams, my first crush. Strong, beautiful, and not afraid to fight an army of rat creatures.
