JERICHO Returns!
Friday, Nov 19th, 2010
IDW and CBS Consumer Products to Continue Comic Book Series of TV's Cult Classic

IDW Publishing and CBS Consumer Products are continuing the comic book series based on the cult favorite television show that the fans would not let die - JERICHO! Continuing directly from the finale of CBS's post-apocalyptic drama, IDW will offer the complete JERICHO comic series from the original creative team behind the TV show. Debuting in 2006, CBS's Jericho aired for two seasons, following residents of a fictional, post-apocalyptic town.

"The creators and producers of Jericho are so excited about working with IDW to continue the comic book series," said executive producer of Jericho, Dan Shotz. "Jericho thrives because of the fans that fight for this story on a consistent basis. We have to thank the fans because they are the reason Jericho is here to stay."

Kicking off in February 2011, IDW will release both JERICHO #4 and JERICHO REDUX. The specially priced REDUX edition will collect the first three issues of the series and prep readers for the continuation with issues #4 through #6. IDW's JERICHO comics will stay true to the original series, offering fans the story they have been waiting for.

JERICHO #4 Penned by the show's writers and producers, Dan Shotz, Robert Levine and Jason M. Burns, JERICHO REDUX is the perfect way for fans to start getting more of the series they love.

"We're very excited to be part of this universe," said IDW Chief Operating Officer, Greg Goldstein. "Jericho is a powerful story with a very active fan base, and we're happy to be able to continue this adventure with them."

The saga continues in February with JERICHO #4, and the series continues monthly in March and April. Beginning with issue #4, the series will be written by Matthew Federman, with artist Matt Merhoff, and Scott West, who will provide covers.

Based on the unique history of the JERICHO comics, IDW and CBS Consumer Products will work diligently to make sure that subscriptions to the original series are fulfilled.

JERICHO REDUX ($7.99, 72 pages, full color) will be available in stores in February 2011. Diamond order code DEC10 0373.

JERICHO #4 ($3.99, 32 pages, full color) will be available in stores in February 2011. Diamond order code DEC10 0371.

A Message from Dan Shotz to the Fans of Jericho

2010-10-15T17:37:00.001-04:00

From Dan Shotz, Executive Producer of Jericho:

I am happy to share some great news! We have found a new home for the Jericho Comic Book Series. CBS Consumer Products, who is responsible for licensing Jericho, is very close to completing a new deal to continue publication of the Comic Book Series. We are very excited about these upcoming plans. Details to follow soon.

Dan Shotz called me this morning (10/15) to let me know the above official statement would be released. He let me know that the new publisher and CBS Consumer Products were in talks at the New York Comic Con and that an official press release would be out soon.

I got the feeling that the new publisher is more established publisher and Dan told me the fans would be pleased with the choice.

Issue #4 is ready to go as soon as the new publisher can get it listed in Diamond's catalog. Issue #5 is getting the finishing touches and issue #6 is being worked on. The new publisher will be republishing issues 1-3 as a booklet, so that their established audience can purchase the first three issues.

The Jericho comic is alive!

Hello Fellow Rangers

I just wanted to give you a brief update. We have heard from Sam at DDP and they will have issues 1 -- 3 sets for sale for $10.00. In addition, they will have preview pages for issues # 4 as well as Cover A for Issue 4 on display at their booth.

CBS and DDP both have booths at Comic Con and we hope we will hear something, at long last, about the official release date for the final 3 issues of the comic and the book. Hopefully we will also get an update, from CBS or Junction, regarding news on a potential movie.

We continue to believe that we may get news and there will be a full team of Rangers representing the fans of Jericho at Comic Con in San Diego which begins on July 21.

Remember there is a Jericho Rally on July 20, 2010 on SYFY the day before Comic Con and they are showing the pilot through Rogue River.

Thanks To Beebull: Haven now has Jericho issue 1 cover A and B for sale

Operation Phoenix/Comic Book Update

2010-07-06T08:04:00.001-04:00

July 2, 2010

Hello Fellow Rangers

We have 19 days until Comic Con begins in San Diego. Ratkeeper tried to get Sam at DDP to confirm the release dates for issues #4 - #6. Prior to Wonder Con Sam, Josh and Junction Entertainment had been very engaged and answered our questions directly. After Wonder Con, we were told that the delay, of the comic, was not due to DDP and that CBS would have a press release. Rat keeper got this response from Sam this week:

From Sam Wells

Sent: Wednesday, June 30, 2010 8:05 AM

To: gwen@az-technology.com

Subject: Re: Question on Comic forum

i've got nothing as for a release date - i know josh sent out that email that addressed everything ddp and included a section about jericho - if you didn't see that please let me know and i'll forward it to you.

-sam

JERICHO: SEASON 3 UPDATE from Josh June 9, 2010

We must offer a huge apology to all of the Jericho fans who are still waiting on issue #4 of the series to hit the stands. The book is still delayed, and as much as it kills us that's all we can say right now.

We can say that issue 4 is drawn, colored, etc. and issue 5 is well in progress, and the whole series has been written, and unless the Mayans were off by a couple of years the book WILL be out soon.

Again, we're sorry that's all we can say at this time. For now, if you haven't checked out the series yet (6 issues in total), you can read them via iTunes or the new comiXology desktop reader, or buy hard copies online and at your local comic shop.

I know yesterday Epix HD posted a simple 2 sentence statement on their facebook page:
"FlashForward and Jericho fans, sadly we will not be picking up either of these shows. We hope they find a good home -- they deserve it."

Think about this, why did they throw Jericho in with Flash forward. We have been contacting them for 2 years and as recently as April 2010 immediately following Jon Turtletaub's statements at Wonder Con we started to take over the Epix Facebook Page and never received any official statements other than they would like to see Jericho on Epix. Why now, all of the sudden and out of the blue did they lump Jericho in with Flash Forward? As we all remember there were several Jericho references including James Remar as Jericho's General.

Finally ask this question, why has the comic been delayed so long? If it followed the original schedule for issues # 1 -- 3 it should have come out on April 28th. Josh states that issue #4 is done as of June 9th, again why won't they simply tell us the new release date? We believe the comic is somehow tied to the next phase of Jericho. We may find out in 19 days so keep the fires burning.

As we have said since March 2009, when the Comic was announced, good sales numbers are key to the movie and continuation of the series.

Everything points to something coming our way, we need stay the course a little longer.

Keep the Faith,

Redsox19861

Operation Phoenix Update

2010-06-28T08:56:00.002-04:00

June 25, 2010

Hello Fellow Rangers,

Comic Con is slated to start on July 21, 2010 in San Diego. We feel that some type of announcement may be made at Comic Con and that the delay in the comic is directly related to that announcement.

Right after Wondercon, Sam at DDP let us know that there was a delay with the comic that was related to something at CBS and that there would be a pres release. We have been waiting for a press release since April.

Ratkeeper found this link during a google search: http://www.thewrap.com/movies/article/cbs-films-what-me-worry-18170

There was this statement in the article: "An official with knowledge of the division's development slate said CBS Films will have a number of upcoming development, casting and release announcements to make in the coming weeks."

Is this the CBS press release that DDP said we are waiting for?

After weeks of sending emails to DDP and the producers with no response, a link showed up on the Save Jericho Facebook Page from tfaw, which contained dates for the release of issues 4 -- 6:
http://www.tfaw.com/Search?_results_use_stopwords=true&quick_sstring=jericho&_results_sstype_search=

Issue #4: July 7th
Issue #5: July 28th
Issue #6 August 25th

On June 9, 2010, DDP sent out their newsletter with a statement regarding the delay which included the following:

JERICHO: SEASON 3 UPDATE

We must offer a huge apology to all of the Jericho fans who are still waiting on issue #4 of the series to hit the stands. The book is still delayed, and as much as it kills us that's all we can say right now.

We can say that issue 4 is drawn, colored, etc. and issue 5 is well in progress, and the whole series has been written, and unless the Mayans were off by a couple of years the book WILL be out soon.

Again, we're sorry that's all we can say at this time. For now, if you haven't checked out the series yet (6 issues in total), you can read them via iTunes or the new comiXology desktop reader, or buy hard copies online and at your local comic shop.

All of these clues taken together seem to support that we will get some type of news in 4 weeks at Comic Con.

Stay the Course and Keep the Faith,

Redsox 1986

2010-05-24T09:20:00.000-04:00

May 21, 2010

Hello Fellow Rangers

I just wanted to check in and address some of the rumors and talk surrounding the comic and the future of Jericho. We have all been wondering, since DDP pulled issue #4 from release, what is going on. There has been speculation ranging from DDP going out of business to the comic has been canceled by CBS and everything in between.

Right now what we do know is that the comic was set for 6 issues with the first 3 being released 7 weeks apart. Issue 4 should have been released on Wednesday, April 28, 2010. We have been told by Sam, at DDP, that there is a CBS press release due out to explain the production delay. We have been told by Dan Shotz that the comic has been extended and that they have told us sales have been better than they could have hoped for.

Over the past 6 weeks, there have been numerous Jericho articles and related stories popping up on the internet and in Flash Forward on ABC and in 24 on Fox. There have been Jericho related storylines, names and actors all making references to Jericho; with Flash Forward having its own Ravenwood named Jericho, with James Remar as Jericho's General. To some this looks like some type of product placement or part of some type of direct marketing campaign.

Jericho was canceled in March 2007 and we sent nuts, faxes, calls and they caved and put the show back on the air. The second time around came with another cancellation in March 2008 and since that time we have collectively, through many means have kept Jericho alive.

CBS is a billion dollar business that makes it's money off of advertising, such as billboards and sport venues, as well as through television, licensing and film. It green lighted the comic because of everyone out there watching Jericho DVD's or on Netflix, attending Comic Con and Wondercon, as well as all the past campaigns and the ratings on the CW last year.

Comic Con is scheduled for July 22-25, in San Diego. Ratkeeper and I feel that based on the information and clues that we have seen, something will be announced at Comic Con. We have come a long way in 2 years and we still hold out hope today for more Jericho, because all of us through many different ways stood as one and did not let Jericho die.

We are still here and still have a chance. Let's see what the press release says and what happens at Comic Con in July.

Keep the Faith

Operation Phoenix/Comic Book Update

2010-04-19T07:19:00.002-04:00

April 11, 2010

Hello Fellow Rangers

By now many have seen the update from Ratkeeper regarding Jon Turtletaub's remarks from Wondercon. The producers answered several questions from Ratkeeper regarding Epix and a possible movie. Although they said there were no direct talks going on right now with Epix, they did say that Jon Tuteltaub's statements, regarding the future Jericho film and the comic sales being directly tied as a launching-point for the Jericho film, were accurate.

That being said, we still believe that Epix may be in the mix down the road. Putting the show on Epix to run the 29 original episodes and then making and putting on TV, a one or two part movie would seem to be the most logical step if Jericho is to return other than a Comic Book. The cost of production will be lower and the risk would be minimal as CBS already owns the series and the cost would be far less than a movie made for release on the big screen.

What we need to do now is to write one email and one post on Facebook, to Epix, asking them to provide us information on how to sign up for Epix.

Example to use:
My name is John Smith, I live in Jericho, KS. I have Time Warner Cable. I understand that you might be adding Jericho to your programming and as a result I want to subscribe to Epix. How can I add Epix channel to my cable service. You can substitute the name of your cable company or satellite carrier.

If you watch content on your I-Phone, I-Pad, X-box or via the internet, tell them that and ask how you access Epix via these mediums; as Epix's concept is a cross media approach looking to get their content across the internet, cable, satellite and on I-tunes.

We need everyone to send an email and a letter or post card to Epix:

EPIX email address: superfan@epixhd.com
Mark Greenberg, President and CEO
Epix
1515 Broadway
New York, New York 10036
epix website: Link

Also we need to get everyone whose is on Facebook to get onto Epix' Facebook page and post a similar message I am Sally Smith, live in NY, NY, want to see Jericho on Epix.
epix Face Book: Link

Ask your carrier, if they will be getting Epix. Contact information for Comcast, Time Warner and Direct TV

ecare@comcast.com
We_Can_Help@cable.comcast.com Comcast Customer Service
215-640-8960 Comcast Customer Service

twc.cotp@twcable.com Time Warner Customer Service

http://support.directv.com/app/ ask Direct TV customer Service Form
800-824-9081 Direct TV customer service number

As we look towards the future we can help deliver numbers that they need to make a business case argument to continue Jericho. In our world, we can do that by buying the comic, including telling friends and family where to buy the comic, spread the word through word-of-mouth and social media and by letting CBS and Epix know we are here and will be willing customers. They will have someone watching and counting so if you can do one email and one Facebook post, that is all we need, no money or real time involved.

A special Thank you to Ranger M in Scottsdale, Arizona for understanding and coming up with a new line in the message that we are sending to Epix. " I understand that you MIGHT BE adding Jericho to your programming and as a result I want to subscribe to Epix. "

Think of it as completing the Census form only easier.

Clarification

2010-04-12T08:54:00.000-04:00

My conversation at WonderCon with Jon Turteltaub covered the Jericho comic, future Jericho film, Epix and CBS Films.

I had asked Jon Turteltaub if Epix was still interested in Jericho; he responded yes. Shaun o'Mac raised a question regarding the accuracy of this portion of the conversation, so I went to get clarification from the producers.

I have since received clarification that neither Junction nor Jon Turteltaub are in current talks with Epix. They did say that Jon Tuteltaub's statements, regarding the future Jericho film and the comic sales being directly tied as a launching-point for the Jericho film, were accurate.

In retrospect, my conversation with him was at the end of a long day and it appears that he misunderstood my question regarding Epix. I would characterize my conversation with Jon Turteltaub as positive and hopeful. I want to thank Shaun o'Mac for his comments and letting us know that we needed to get the statements from Jon Turteltaub clarified.

Lee has secured the unbelievable low rate of $89 per night (Thursday - Sunday). This is a FANTASTIC rate as this hotel sometimes charges upwards of $299 per night

The hotel offers a complimentary shuttle from to and from the airport as well as to downtown Boston. In addition, it is a short walk to the subway and just down the street from the JFK library for all you history buffs. The hotel is 2.5 miles from Downtown Boston and is located on the ocean.

The weekend will include but is not limited to the following:

Redsox -- Phillies game at Historic Fenway Park
Duck Tour which travels across the City, including a cruise on the Charles River
Historic Quincy Market and Faneuil Hall
Shopping and Dining
Freedom Trail
Walking Tour in the Public Gardens, including a ride on the Swan Boats (made famous in Book Make Way for Ducklings)
Visit to the USS Constitution, the oldest active commissioned warship in the US Navy
Visits to The North End (Little Italy) and China Town

Airfares are still looking GREAT from the east coast and quite affordable from other areas too. It's going to be another EPIC event we hope many Rangers (from EVERYWHERE) can attend.

We had a great turn out in Baltimore last year and are hoping for even more this year. For further details you can e mail me at gumbyfan79@aol.com.

WonderCon Recap

2010-04-12T08:27:00.000-04:00

The rangers spoke with about 334 fans.
Saturday we broke all daily records and talked to 197 fans! At times there were three of us all talking to three different fans.

We gave out:

227, 1 inch Jericho Season 3 buttons
Over 200 Jericho business cards with info on how to get the comic on the back
Used up all the stock of mini posters, magnets and letter size posters
Over 70 postcards to Epix (these did not come out until late Saturday)

Jon Turteltaub was amazed that the fans were coming over to the table and telling us they wanted more Jericho.

Jonathan Steinberg was amazed we talked to more fans than we did at Comic Con!

Here is an article and video clip in which Jon Turteltaub tells the interviewer he intends to seek out the Jericho fan table.

Operation Phoenix Update

2010-04-12T08:26:00.001-04:00

April 6, 2010

Hello Fellow Rangers,

I wanted to update you on the recent events that transpired at WonderCon which was held in San Francisco this past weekend, April 2-4, 2010. Our team of Rangers were at the event all weekend manning the Jericho Fan Table.

On Saturday, Jon Turtletaub was in town and he was part of a panel that ended around 2:00pm. At 5:30 pm he stopped by the Jericho table and spoke with the Rangers. He was asked about the future of Jericho and specifically about Epix. Jon Turteltaub's response was that Epix was still very interested in Jericho. He went on to say that they (the producers) were also talking to CBS Films about the Jericho movie which means there are two different entities interested in Jericho.
Over the past 2 years, we have tried many approaches including the purchase of a billboard and making a TV commercial. In November 2008, we launched Operation Phoenix the purpose of which was to make a business case statement to the bean-counters at CBS that they need to continue the Jericho story.

Based on the statement from Jon Turteltaub on Saturday, we have achieved that goal through many different avenues from bar graphs and posts on Boards, to letters, ratings on the CW during the re-run last year and to surpassing the numbers they had anticipated in the purchase of the Jericho Comic.

What we need to do now is to write to Epix and ask them to provide us information on how to sign up for Epix.

Example to use:
My name is John Smith, I live in Cheyenne, WY. I have Time Warner Cable. I understand that you are adding Jericho to your programming and as a result I want to subscribe to Epix. How can I add Epix channel to my cable service. You can substitute the name of your cable company or satellite carrier.

If you watch content on your I-Phone, I-Pad, X-box or via the internet, tell them that and ask how you access Epix via these mediums as Epix's concept is a cross media approach looking to get their content across the internet, cable, satellite and on I-tunes.

We need everyone to send an email and a letter or post card to Epix.

EPIX email address: superfan@epixhd.com

Mark Greenberg, President and CEO
Epix, a Viacom Company
1515 Broadway
New York, New York 10036

Epix Website: http://www.epixhd.com/

Also we need to get everyone whose is on Facebook to go to the Epix' Facebook page and post a similar message - I am Sally Smith, live in NY, NY, want to see Jericho on Epix.
Epix Face Book link http://www.facebook.com/EpixHD

We are going to get this done. We just need everyone to help push a little more. It is because of every Jericho fan across the globe that we are here today. The continued purchase of sales of the Comic and helping Epix see the numbers of people who want the show to continue are key to locking this up.

Keep the Faith we are almost home

Redsox1986

Please note that although Epix is a cable/satellite network, their articles have talked of other ways to distribute - iTunes and a Netflix like rental service have been mentioned the most.

Operation Phoenix Update

2010-04-02T08:27:00.001-04:00

March 31, 2010

Hello Fellow Rangers

2 year post cancellation status:

First I want to send out good thoughts to everyone for Passover and Easter both of which are happening over the next 6 days.

I want to wish Gwen and all the Rangers who will be attending Wondercon this weekend in San Francisco good luck and I hope they enjoy themselves.

http://www.comic-con.org/wc/ WonderCon San Francisco, CA, April 2 -- 4, 2010.

We believe there may be an announcement about the next phase of Jericho's future at WonderCon or in the media surrounding the Easter weekend.

Since last years WonderCon in February 2009 and Comic Con in San Diego in July 2009, we have been watching media reports and have been interacting with Dan Shotz and the people at DDP as they prepared and launched the comic book.

What we have seen of late, taken separately, would be appear to be coincidence or small shout outs from writers. But in the past week, we have seen James Remar, aka Jonah Prouse pop up last week on Flashforward as the "General of Jericho" the paramilitary contractor firm on Flashforward.

Last night Michael Gaston (Mayor Gray Anderson) appeared as a US army General who opposes the President's decision not to hand over a terrorist to his own people. He acts covertly and is accused by a White House aid of committing Sedition. He was in New York trying to keep a nuclear bomb from detonating. We have also had twitter reports that 3 of the actors appeared on the recent episode of 90120.

Flashforward and 24 have one thing in common, Producer and Writer Brannon Braga who used to work on several of the Star Trek shows while employed by Paramount, which also owns Epix. Could this be some type of pre-publicity move by the studio getting Jericho back on people's minds? It is possible, especially since both Flashforward and 24 are serialized drams like Jericho and attract the same type of demographic.

We know that Epix has 5 carrier deals in place and that CBS recently and deliberately took off all Jericho episodes and content from the CBS website. We have also seen a lot of articles pop up recently with Jericho mentions in them.

If a movie or miniseries is in the works then getting people thinking and talking about Jericho is a logical step before making any type of announcement.

I believe we may see something this weekend. We will have a team of Rangers on hand in case something breaks.

I hope everyone is enjoying the Spring as summer is now only 2 months away.

Keep the Faith

Hello Fellow Rangers

Just wanted to give you an update. Hope everyone is starting to enjoy spring and that the winter will soon be behind us.

We had some news this week that Lennie James and Skeet Ulrich have signed onto some projects both are pilot series so we wish them well.

We still feel that all the signs point to Epix carrying Jericho and that some type of announcement will be made at Wondercon, which is being held San Francisco, CA, April 2 -- 4, 2010.

The third issue of the comic was great chock full of surprises and new plot lines.
The electronic version of issue number 3 is now available to download from ComiXology on iPhone and iPod Touch platform for 0.99 USD-thanks Darkilici for the heads up.

2010-03-15T10:52:00.000-04:00

Hello Fellow Rangers,

I hope you are all enjoying Issue # 3 of the comic. The story is getting better and better. I love the shout out to our own Norsu in the comic, you will have to look for it.

As Gwen and I have been mentioning the past 18 months, we feel that the show may be heading towards the new Epix channel that is being carried on Verizon Fios, Cox and Charter Communications, which will start carrying it in April and May respectively and we know Direct TV will be announcing soon and possibly Time-Warner and Comcast.

We have discovered that someone from CBS went into the Jericho web page and removed all video content including pictures and actor bios very recently. This is after they have slowly and systematically removed Jericho Episodes from Joost, then Season 1 from CBS.com, then NetFlix, then Youtube and now season 2 is gone. We believe it is being moved to Epix and therefore they had to deal with licensing/ownership of the episodes.

We have received several messages from Dan and DDP along with some things from the ARG including the count-down clock which points to April 4th.

We feel that something may be announced at Wondercon, which is fast approaching, it is being held in San Francisco the weekend of April 2-4. Gwen and several other Rangers will be there hosting a fan table. If any Rangers in the Bay area can make it, Sunday may be the day.

As we mentioned last year the best way to keep the Jericho Fandom moving until the movie or return of the show to another forum was to get people together at local events and comic/popculture conventions. We have 2 exciting events coming up in the San Francisco Bay area in May and Boston in June.

East Coast Ranger Gathering (ECRG)
Boston, MA (Doubletree Club Boston Bayside) June 11-13, 2010

May Day Picnic:
Join us at Arlington Park in El Cerrito on Saturday, May 1st for a BBQ. Come help us celebrate May Day! Note: If we get good news at WonderCon, we will turn this into a victory celebration.

michaellwentz: Wow! Very cool! Thanks for the heads up about the #Jericho comic!

zeigert: Just finished Jericho Season 2. A good, if not entirely fulfilling, end to an underrated series. I'll definitely be picking up S3 comics.

DuckRoast: Just finished watching the 2nd season on Jericho in one sitting. I must be nuts.

RichelleLilac: Watching disc two of Jericho. Love it, it's so exciting.!

Browncoat359: The series may be cancelled but the events of #Jericho seem more and more plausible,to me,each day under this administration. Pessimistic?

turkfox: I've been watching far too much Jericho, last night I dreamt Hawkins and me were escaping from lots of nucleur blasts!

June 11-13, 2010

Event webpage: Link

Lee has secured the unbelievable low rate of $89 per night (Thursday - Sunday). This is a FANTASTIC rate as this hotel sometimes charges upwards of $299 per night

The hotel offers a complimentary shuttle from to and from the airport as well as to downtown Boston. In addition, it is a short walk to the subway and just down the street from the JFK library for all you history buffs. The hotel is 2.5 miles from Downtown Boston and is located on the ocean.

The weekend will include but is not limited to the following:

Redsox -- Phillies game at Historic Fenway Park
Duck Tour which travels across the City, including a cruise on the Charles River
Historic Quincy Market and Faneuil Hall
Shopping and Dining
Freedom Trail
Walking Tour in the Public Gardens, including a ride on the Swan Boats (made famous in Book Make Way for Ducklings)
Visit to the USS Constitution, the oldest active commissioned warship in the US Navy
Visits to The North End (Little Italy) and China Town

Airfares are still looking GREAT from the east coast and quite affordable from other areas too. It's going to be another EPIC event we hope many Rangers (from EVERYWHERE) can attend.

We had a great turn out in Baltimore last year and are hoping for even more this year. For further details you can e mail me at gumbyfan79@aol.com.

Ranger Rendezvous (West Coast Resistance)

Attention: We got a message from Major Beck that advises against a major resistance meeting in May.

We will heed Major Beck's words and schedule smaller meetings. We will be having resistance meetings in April in the SF Bay Area and in July (at Comic Con) in San Diego. Stay tuned to this spot for more details.

Hello Fellow Rangers

This has been an exciting week as the Olympics draw to a close in Vancouver; I just wanted to mention what a great job all the athletes did. Canada is such a wonderful country and they hosted a memorable Winter Olympic Games.

I know everyone is excited about the news from Devils Due Publishing that Issue # 3 will be released on Wednesday, March 10, 2010.

We continue watch Epix and the latest is that Direct TV will be carrying Epix. We also have been following developments in the ARG game as well as other information that we have been looking at that something new and unexpected may take place in issue number 3.

Be on the look out for Issue 3 preview pages located as various Jericho Fan sites.

Wondercon is fast approaching, it is being held in San Francisco the weekend of April 2-4 which is Good Friday and Easter this year. Ratkeeper and several other Rangers will be hosting a fan table so any of you who are in the area will want to check it out.

I want to thank Lee from UHD for all his work on putting together the East Coast Ranger Gathering which is scheduled for June 11-13, 2010 in Boston, MA. It is shaping up to be a great event and we hope as many Rangers as possible can make it for the weekend.

Hello Fellow Rangers

Comic Update: Issue 3 Release date should be announced soon. We received an update from Sam at DDP yesterday and hopefully we will not be disappointed. Let's see where this issue leads us. I think it may have a few surprises.

February 12, 2010- Latest From Sam Wells at DDP "We're going to press next week. :) Putting the finishing touches on it with corrections and such today and once we have everything at the printer then we'll be able to give a firm date."

We continue to see carriers sign up to carry Epix with the number 3,4,5,and 7 carriers in the US now in the fold and we have heard from Susan Gator that DirecTV is going to add Epix soon as well.

As K6 has mentioned, we have all collectively kept Jericho alive and the huge success of the comics has made an even stronger business case to the bean counters at CBS that Jericho needs to continue.

I hope that everyone in the Fandom is doing well and that we send out good thoughts for a quick warm up and snow melt down to those Rangers who fell victim to the Blizzards of 2010.

As always Stay the Course and Keep the Faith
