JERICHO returns... again... in comics form!

I really liked Jericho, the surprisingly homey and heartwarming post-apocalyptic CBS series starring the perpetually fretful-looking Skeet Ulrich. (No wonder the poor guy always looks like he's waiting for the ax to fall, given how long his shows usually last.) While I wasn't crazy enough about Jericho to mail CBS packages of nuts as part of the fan campaign to get the show renewed for a second season, I was grateful when that seemingly quixotic campaign actually paid off and we got to return to the little town of Jericho for another handful of episodes.

Now the show is coming back yet again, this time in comic book form. Jericho: Season Three is just hitting stores now. In my experience TV shows adapted into ongoing comics are a hit-or-miss proposition, but this one does look promising, with some rather slick art and stories plotted by the show's original writing team. You can learn more at the comic's official site.
