Bone: Rock Jaw (Volume 5) 1998

Written and Drawn by
Jeff SmithColors by
Steve Hamaker Bone: Rock Jaw Volume 5 takes place entirely on a cliff on the outskirts of the Valley. Here the story centers on
Fone Bone and
Smiley Bone's quest to return the
Rat Creature Pup back to its family, only to run into
Roque Ja (Rock Jaw), a Tiger. From here all sorts of troubles await our lovable duo as they meet a host of other characters that help them escape from
Rock Jaw and
Kingdok.
I was kind of surprised that the majority of the Volume was basically one story set in one setting. It does take on the feel of
Lord Of The Rings with their quest...or lack of. No
Phoney Bone here gives it a lesser rating. Hey, nothing wrong with the story itself that's being told. But I wanted some crazy antics of
Phoney Bone to pop up somewhere.
