Bone. The thread.

[Rob Spalding]

I think it's just one of those "fall off a chair laughing" moments that so rarely happen.
And it's still funny every time, it actually makes the re-read that bit funnier when you look at what the rat creatures go through.

Bartleby is great

Aye.
Stupid, stupid rat creatures.

Thank you for bringing this to my attention.

I'd never heard of Bone until the thread started and I've managed to uh.."digitally acquire" the first six chapters yesterday.

I honestly can't remember the last time I read anything so funny, especially those rat creatures.

As soon as I have the spare cash I will be seeking out the books.

I also have Stupid, Stupid Rat Tails.  The story of Big Johnson Bone.
It's a sort of prequel to Bone, telling why rat-creatures have no tails and some other stuff.
It's just as fun and well woth buying if you are a Bone fan and haven't read it yet.

It only ticks me off that Stupid Stupid Rat Tales can only be found in Soft Cover. I have the entire run of Bone in Hardcovers, including the Rose mini-series.  But SSRT is a blight to my bookshelf because it does not match the rest of the series as hard cover.

The first issue of RASL was really good too. BTW.
