In 1991, he launched a company called to publish his comic book BONE, a comedy/adventure about three lost cousins from Boneville. Against all odds, the small company flourished, building a reputation for quality stories and artwork.

In 1992, Jeff's wife joined the company as partner to handle publishing and distribution, licensing, and foreign language publications. In the Spring of 2005, Harry Potter's U.S. publisher entered the graphic novel market by launching a new imprint, Graphix with a full color version of BONE: Out from Boneville, bringing the underground comic to a new audience and a new generation. In 2007, released Smith's first non-creator owned work, , a four-part mini-series recreating a classic serial from comic's Golden Age. Between projects, Smith spends much of his time on the international guest circuit promoting comics and the art of graphic novels.
