Aside from Paul Chadwick's Concrete, I strongly feel that this comic series is ripe for adaptation.

I just started re-reading my favorite and, in my opinion, the BEST graphic novel of all time, Jeff Smith's "Bone".

Anybody remember it? If you do and you have read it, you may be wondering why they never did anything with that series (like, it just stopped at comics and two video games). Well, they've tried three separate times to make it into a TV show or a movie.

First, Nickelodeon wanted to make a huge movie out of Bone...and then it got dropped.

And then Warner Bros. wanted to make a trilogy of movies. They wrote up all the scripts...and then it got dropped.

And then Netflix wanted to make a TV series out of Bone...and then it got canceled in 2022.

The first two story arcs (out of nine) were adapted into an adventure game series by Telltale Games in 2005 and 2006. As of now, it's the closest we will ever get to an animated Bone TV series or movie. When is Bone gonna get its justice? Somebody come save Bone...

The works of Jeff Smith are very near and dear to my heart. When it comes to fantasy comics, this guy is one of my personal favorite writers/artists, and the world he created and the stories he crafted are, without a doubt, one of my all-time favorites.
