Free comic book day 2020 - Bone
Nous voici de retour pour cette nouvelle édition 2020 du Free Comic Book Day ! Toujours présents et fidèles à cette manifestation que nous soutenons car elle fait écho, par la diversité de son offre, à l’essence-même de notre catalogue. Cependant, les comics offrent également de très belles séries tous publics, une autre manière de dire que les récits en question peuvent être appréciées par de plus jeunes lecteurs. Bone, créé par le formidable Jeff Smith, fait partie de ces titres qui disposent de plusieurs niveaux de lecture. Les plus jeunes peuvent accrocher, et les lecteurs plus âgés y trouver également leur compte. C’est suffisamment rare pour être noté. Bone sera bientôt adapté sous la forme d’une série animée sur Netflix, un large public pourra alors en juger. En attendant, pourquoi ne pas (re)découvrir cette magni¬fique série avec le tout premier numéro que nous vous proposons ici.

Born and raised in the American mid-west, Jeff Smith learned about cartooning from comic strips, comic books, and watching animation on TV. In 1991, he launched a company called Cartoon Books to publish his comic book BONE, a comedy/adventure about three lost cousins from Boneville. Against all odds, the small company flourished, building a reputation for quality stories and artwork. Word of mouth, critical acclaim, and a string of major awards helped propel Cartoon Books and BONE to the forefront of the comic book industry.
In 1992, Jeff’s wife Vijaya Iyer joined the company as partner to handle publishing and distribution, licensing, and foreign language publications. In the Spring of 2005, Harry Potter’s U.S. publisher Scholastic Inc. entered the graphic novel market by launching a new imprint, Graphix with a full color version of BONE: Out from Boneville, bringing the underground comic to a new audience and a new generation.
In 2007, DC Comics released Smith’s first non-creator owned work, SHAZAM! Monster Society of Evil, a four-part mini-series recreating a classic serial from comic’s Golden Age. Between projects, Smith spends much of his time on the international guest circuit promoting comics and the art of graphic novels.
