Oni plans Jumper OGN for February
Update: Though headlined as an OGN on Oni’s website, this graphic novel appears to be a collected edition, likely collecting the four-issue Jumper: Jumpscars comic book series. A content preview is available via Comic Book Resources.
As mentioned on Oni’s official website, an original graphic novel based on the upcoming science fiction film, Jumper - starring Hayden Christiansen and Samuel L. Jackson - is scheduled for a February 2008 release. Site excerpt follows:
JUMPER tells the story of David Rice, a young man who discovers he has the ability to teleport himself distances both near and far with nothing more than a thought. David’s powers aren’t just a blessing though–they also happen to put him in the sights of the Paladins, an ancient order dedicated to eliminating the genetic aberrations they deem too dangerous to exist in our world. JUMPSCARS looks back over twenty years as a new Paladin must deal with the perils of the job while honing her skills under one of the Paladins’ top operatives–the mysterious Roland (portrayed in the film by Samuel L. Jackson).
