Jumpscars

PREVIEW: "JUMPER: JUMPSCARS" - PREQUEL TO UPCOMING FILM

"To build on the JUMPER backstory, Oni Press went to the proven team of writers Nunzio DeFilippis & Christina Weir (NEW X-MEN, CHECKMATE) and illustrator Brian Hurtt (THE DAMNED, HARD TIME) to craft a tale of globe-trotting intrigue that adds depth to this epic struggle."

I was reading up on Paladins and they cannot 'harm' a jumper until they capture them. They use electrical nets to catch them. They can't shoot at them because it could get pretty unpredictable around a jumpscar. A jumpscar is like a cloud of smoke that is left behind after someone jumps, like a portal of sorts. These jumpscars can hurt and cut people who touch them, only jumpers can touch them and not get hurt. I'm guessing Jack jumped and the person who was after him touched the jumpscar and got cut up, hence blood in the car and on the map. Let's hope I am right about this one!

From Wikipedia:

"Oni Press will release a graphic novel that will portray several back stories related to the film entitled Jumper: Jumpscars. The novel will be released on February 13, 2008, one day before the film's wide release. A publisher for Oni Press commented on the tie-in to the film, stating: "The world that was being built around these characters was so well-realized and the mythology so interesting that other stories about this conflict would be plentiful and add to what the filmmakers were building." The novel was written by Nunzio DeFilippis and Christina Weir and illustrated by Brian Hurtt."
