Summary
Add a SummaryA warrior never shirks from danger, even if that warrior is just a kid. When the fate of the world (universe?) depends on Fangbone!, a pint-sized expert at arms, to take a supernatural object (a baddie’s big toe) to another dimension (our own) he literally leaps at the chance. Finding himself at Eastwood Elementary School he immediately attaches himself to a good-natured if slightly ADD kid named Bill and places himself in class 3G. There he begins his plan to defend the toe from supernatural baddies and to build an army. Neither task is easy, but with Bill at his side every step of the way Fangbone quickly becomes a force to reckon with in a world gone weird.

Add a CommentBasically this is a story where a stranger comes to town bearing a toe (not his own) and brings together a ragtag group of misfits. It’s like Shane meets The Bad News Bears with some hound-snakes and dirt devils thrown in for spice. War and Peace it is not, but I have a vague suspicion that someday some of the kids who read this book might stumble on some old Robert E. Howard short stories about Conan the Barbarian and try it out. And as crazy as that sounds, I think that would be a fantastic use of their time. Long live crazy pulp classics! Long live incredibly amusing graphic novel sagas! Long live Fangbone!
Funny graphic novel about a wanna be warrior transported through time to the third grade.
