CONSIDERING THE FIRST—and so far, the only—issue of The Warriors: Jailbreak came out like six months ago, I’d expected people to stop asking me about it by now. But they haven’t, which is kind of great and kind of awkward: Great because a lot of people are still interested in the book, and awkward because when they ask where issues two, three, and four are, I don’t have much to tell them.
I will say this: Hopefully the rest of Jailbreak will come out, either in single-issue or trade-paperback form, and hopefully that’ll happen sooner rather than later. As some of you know, Jailbreak was originally published by Dabel Brothers; when Dynamite Entertainment acquired Dabel Brothers’ properties, it became clear that if Jailbreak was to continue, it would be via Dynamite. As of now, it’s still up in the air as to whether or not Dynamite will print Jailbreak’s remaining issues—though I, along with Jailbreak artists Todd Herman and Herb Apon, have been talking with Dynamite about that possibility, so if all goes well, something will work out.
I don’t wanna jinx it, so that’s all I’ll say for now—but rest assured that if Jailbreak does get picked up, and if there will be a way for readers to finish the story that began in Jailbreak #1… well, I’ll be as excited about that as anybody, and this’ll be the first place I’ll let people know about it.
In the meantime, thanks to everyone who has asked about the book during the past few months. It’s meant a lot, and while I feel lousy that I haven’t been able to give you an answer yet, hopefully that’ll change soon.
