JackFetch Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 Warner Bros. has picked up the rights to "Bone," the acclaimed independent comic book series from artist Jeff Smith, says The Hollywood Reporter. Dan Lin will produce. The fantasy series followed three cousins from the Bone family who are small, white and bald humanlike creatures with big noses. The trio are run out of their hometown and find themselves in a mysterious valley where they are separated and hunted by other creatures. They are taken in by a girl named Thorn and her grandmother, and find out that the valley is threatened by an evil force called the Lord of the Locusts. The series ran irregularly from 1991-2004. Scholastic has been publishing the collected stories in graphic novel format since 2005, selling more than 1 million copies so far. A decision on what kind of format "Bone" should take -- live-action or animated or both -- will be based on filmmaker meetings. http://www.superherohype.com/news/topnews.php?id=6896 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stavros Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 I hope it's handdrawn animated, Bone should have that classic feel. The characters are all drawn in an animation-ready style anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
