Hi Folks! =20

I met Jeff Smith last year at the con and I thought he was a great guy =
to his fans in the mold of Sergio & Mark.  Everybody and their brother =
was trying to get Bone books signed and he was very accommadating.   As =
the creator of arguably the biggest comic book success story of the =
90's, he could easily have become jaded and aloof when it comes to fans, =
but he hasn't from my limited observation.   He seems to be a very, very =
nice young man. =20

-Gary G. =20

PS  Later I saw him desperately trying to convince Carolyn Kelly to do a =
story he could put in a Bone book.  (He didn't care how long or short is =
was.  He wanted Carolyn Kelly art and story in his book!)

  Jeff Smith (creator of Bone) recommends and links to an excerpt from =
Groo: The Most Intelligent Man in the World in the Library section of =
Boneville.com.  For some reason I find it interesting when a creator and =
I share similar reading preferences.
