review 1: I've never read any graphic novel before. However, since I loved the Jericho TV show, I thought I'd give this one a try. I found it entertaining and not as confusing as I feared a graphic novel might be. In particular, I really liked the artwork when I looked back at the book a second time to take it in visually after already reading it once for the storyline.Potential readers definitely need to know that this book does not stand on its own. In fact, reading it before watching the Jericho TV series spoils all the critical plot elements from Seasons 1 and 2. (If you haven't seen Jericho on TV yet, do yourself a favor and go watch it on Netflix.)I enjoyed revisiting my favorite characters from Jericho and reading the next chapters in their stories. The storyline was exciting... more, explained some important backstory of Seasons 1 and 2, and ended with a bit of a cliffhanger (of course). However, the writing quality seemed lower than in the TV episodes, including some uncharacteristically implausible plot twists. In addition, the graphic novel format wasn't as engrossing and didn't have the same emotional impact for me. I kept wishing I could watch the key scenes in greater detail on video. In summary, Jericho Season 3: Civil War is recommended for avid fans but not really anyone else. As for me, mainly because I like the characters and want to know what happens next, I'm eagerly anticipating the Jericho Season 4 graphic novel, which will be available soon according to Amazon.com.
review 2: Great continuation of an awesome TV Show. It was nice to see the characters again and to get a little more backstory about what exactly happened with the initial bombs. I was a little surprised that it ended on a cliffhanger though. I thought resolving the series was the whole point. I don't see any clues that say there will be a season 4. That's kind of an odd choice. Still, there is enough resolution and backstory to make it enjoyable and worth the read. less
