Fangbone!

Michael Rex’s Fangbone! is a gleefully gross and action-packed comic series from Putnam Publishing Group, launched in 2012. The series follows a young barbarian from a fantasy world who is sent to a modern-day elementary school, where he must protect a magical toe from the forces of evil. Rex writes and illustrates the entire three-issue run, blending slapstick humor, monster mayhem, and schoolyard antics into a kid-friendly adventure. It stands out as a lively, all-ages romp that riffs on classic barbarian tropes with a contemporary twist.
