Bone #7

The seventh chapter of Jeff Smith's beloved Bone saga, "Ghost Circles," carries a quietly tense cover that says everything without saying a word — a wild-haired Thorn and the round little Bone creature cautiously peek over a rocky ledge beneath a deep, star-scattered night sky, their wide eyes hinting at unseen dangers lurking below. Smith's expressive linework, colored here by Elizabeth Lewis, balances that signature mix of humor and genuine unease that has made this series so enduring. If you've been following the Complete Bone Adventures, volume seven is exactly the kind of installment that reminds you why this series holds such a special place in the medium.
