Since this book is five years old already and the show was cancelled 11 years ago I was expecting a satisfying wrap up to the story. Sadly, that's not what this book offers.What it offers is just a little bit more of the story. It was nice to see the characters of the show again but if it wasn't for them and the good memories of the show, this comic book wouldn't offer much if anything at all.Compared to Jericho Season 3 the artwork in this one was changing from one volume to the next which was
I am very happy Jericho continues in this graphic novel I enjoyed the story; but did find it a bit confusing at times!The cliffhanger at the end is fantastic!
This was not the way I'd hoped this story would see itself out. Inconsistent writing, and worst of all, inconsitent artwork, make this forgettable at best and irksome at worst.
A brilliant continuation to where 'Jericho Season 4 (Jericho Graphic Novels #1)' finished. It was well written and the plot holds true to the original story we saw in the original two series which were televised. This graphic novel was brilliantly illustrated. I loved every moment of this novel, I highly recommend this if you are a fan of the Jericho series.
If I were to make a list of the TV shows I think were ended too soon, Jericho would definitely be in the top ten. This post-apocalyptic show lasted for only two seasons, 2006 – 2008, before being cancelled for lack of an audience. However, those fans it had were loyal and it has become a cult classic. To satisfy fans, it’s been turned into a series of graphic novels and continues the story from where the show left off.Jericho Season 4 takes up where Jericho 3 left off. If you haven’t read it, th...
I've been a long time fan of Jericho. With there being a year between graphic novels, I am becoming increasingly disappointed. The writing is mediocre and the story line is just taking to long to complete.
Closer to the truth. Almost
Edge of the seat storytelling, lifelike characters, numerous plot twists, and moral complexity make the comic continuation of "Jericho" a breathtaking read. Artwork is lifelike, capturing the look and feel of the show's characters. The numerous motivations of the characters--revenge, love, principle, survival--give "Jericho" a very realistic (and very frightening) what-if tone, turning the world upside down yet making it instantly recognizable.
I enjoyed this book just as much as Jericho Season 3. You can go read my review for that book and my comments would be the same for this one. I am still not fond of the graphic novel format. But if you loved the TV series, you will love these two books. SPOILER -- Season 4 does not wrap up the story. That's all I will say about the plot. It ends with a cliffhanger/"to be continued". I went and looked and there is no Season 5 out and I think this book is 2 years old. I did some digging and found
I still miss Jericho :(
Continues the story started in the previous graphic novel with the Jake and Mr. Hawkins trying to take down the ASA as they are in a cat-and-mouse intrigue with John Smith who launched the September Attacks. Meanwhile, Stanley and Mimi get caught up with militia from Texas. Like the previous one, it is a decent graphic novel for fans of the show that want to know what happens next. I’m not sure that I need to keep reading as it doesn’t seem like there’s enough story to keep me interested. It was...
Originally reviewed at Bookwraiths ReviewsThe Jericho story continues!For those unlucky enough not to be familiar with it, Jericho is the 2006-2008 television show about the aftermath of a nuclear event in the United States and its effect on a group of people in a small Kansas town. Season Four begins with Jake Green and Robert Hawkins returning to Jericho, for which both are extremely happy. But things in the outside world are anything but peaceful. The country itself is neatly split into two r...
'Jericho Season 4 (Jericho Graphic Novels #2)' is a continuation of the cancelled television show. In this day and age, TV shows don't have to die. They can live on in graphic novel form. This one is overseen by the original writing staff, so there is consistency in the story, but there are a variety of artists used, so the artwork turns into something more inconsistent.Jake and Hawkins are happy to be back in Jericho, but all is not peaceful. There is a new man in town who may know more than he...
If you weren't a fan of the tv series Jericho, I suggest you start withe the first volume of Jericho, otherwise you may not understand everything in this graphic novel. The heroes Jake and Hawkins are attempting to close down the Allied States of America government due to its corruption. The government was involved withe terrorists who did the nuclear attack on several cities. Jake and Hawkins want to broadcast this information so that people will know about what really happened. Will they be su...
I was a big fan of the show JERICHO back in the day, but it's been so long since I've watched it I don't remember a lot of what was going on when the show ended. I think I would have enjoyed this one more if I had, but from what I remember this wasn't a bad continuation of the series.I think it's cool that there's a trend of continuing canceled tv shows in comics, especially since in most cases it's considered officially canon. Comics can be produced for a fraction of what a tv show costs, so it...
JerichoI really have enjoyed the Jericho series. I wish it was still put into a tv show. The characters are awesome, believable. The plot rings a bell, especially in today's climate of chaos and unrest.
"Jericho" Season 4 is the second graphic novel continuation of the mid-2000's cult thriller/drama TV series. The story that unfolds becomes more mysterious and the reveals more troublesome. Key characters are further developed and the writing quality is much improved from the previous graphic novel (probably largely due to there being too many cooks in the kitchen and now there being only one). The art is widely inconsistent in both quality and style due to there being a few different artists. I...
Aw man! This thing ended on a cliffhanger and there's no Season 5 published yet! What am I going to do? Why does this series keep me dangling even ten years later? If you noticed, I did post a review on Season 4 yesterday, and my thoughts are pretty much the same. The only changes I would say to that review is that there was an artist who did one of the chapters' graphics, who decided to make the heads look way too big for the bodies, and I wasn't too keen on that. However, the story was very we...
3.75 StarsI haven't read a lot of graphic novels before this one, but if you love the TV show Jericho like I do, then you should definitely check this book out. I was pleasantly surprised. The illustrations are great and the plot is a continuation of the two TV seasons as well as one previous graphic novel. Nice to see the cult phenomenon in a different medium.Net Galley Feedback
Nuts!Unfortunately the continual delay in the release of this graphic novel only increased my anticipation. Thus when it didn't completely deliver, I was disappointed.Season 4 graphic novel costs the same as Season 3 but the reader is given one less story. The storyline that does cross the 5 comics seems to be more of a "set-up" for future excitement. There are a few interesting developments but for the most part it just plods along, forcing us to wait for Season 5 - for those that are willing.S...
