    I remember reading that they were gonna finish the storyline from the TV show in comic form. Does anyone know what I'm talking about and perhaps some more details?

    Jeremiah is based upon a comic and it is possible that the story picked up in it. But I do not know for sure if that happened.

    Other than the two main characters and the post-apocalyptic environment Jeremiah the comic books and Jeremiah the TV series have nothing in common.

    Hermann started Jeremiah in the late seventies, with the premise of a nuclear fall-out in North-America originated by racial wars. This set back American civilization about a hundred years to a Western movie level (horses, farmers, outlaws,...)

    Jeremiah was an orphan in search of his aunt (for the first 4 albums) and later on roaming through the States looking for an honest dollar or simply getting caught op in dangerous adventures (cults, Japanese invasions, racial tensions, mercenaries, more cults, political corruption, child abuse...). Kurdy (a redhead white guy in the books) saved -unwillingly - Jeremiah's life in the first album and decided to put up with his company (Kurdy is anything but a nice fellow in the books, a little murder does not bother his conscience, eat or be eaten is his motto).

    The 26th album was released in Europe in October 2005, and the tone has grown ever more grim. Hermann is known to be a very misanthropic person, whose faith in humanity is close to zero. The latest album featured a remote religious community where the children decided to kill the abusing adults, resulting in a bloody massacre. As usually Jeremiah and Kurdy end in the middle of this, but somehow survive the whole thing.
