  • An exellent backstory which should by no means be touched before reading the rest of the Bone series (spoiler alert).

The hit comic book mini-series Rose now comes to you in a single handsome package with a brand new cover! Released over a yearlong period to rave reviews (and an Eisner nomination for best painter), the BONE prequel by Jeff Smith and Charles Vess can now be read as it was originally intended - -as one massive epic.

In the old days, when BONE'S Gran'ma Ben was a teenager, a terrifying dragon laid siege to the small towns of the Northern Valley. Unknown to Princess Rose (young Gran'ma Ben), the strange dragon is actually the minion of the Ancient Enemy called the Lord of the Locust. Rose seeks the advice of her advisor, who tells the young princess how to destroy the dragon - - - but at a terrible cost.
