The bone comic book series by Jeff Smith completely deserves a movie or show or something. The series is like Tolkien + Disney +metaphysics and is aimed at a younger audience but has enough deep ideas to keep adults actively interested. It has a rich history of the 90s-00s comic book era as well as some history in acholastic book fairs as well as some early internet meme culture contribution. It was solely owned by one dude who eventually got some help from someone who added color to the series that really made it a next level up. If anyone decides to read it from my comment here, check out the omnibus version and if you can find a 20th anniversary version, that has some nice history and behind the scenes type stuff included. There was a Netflix series that was in the works for like a year or so until Netflix decided to cancel it, so it already has some kind of an interest that I hope keeps building up and eventually makes someone do something about this forgotten gem.

I thought the telltale video game adaptation was interesting!

But yeah, a full epic series would be something else

Yeah it's odd how all these companies are just letting it slip through the cracks like this
