In 2017, [[About Comics]] published a collection of Bernard Edward Mireault's independent work called "XVI Short Stories" which included versions of the first four Jam stories. In 2022, About Comics published ''The Jam, Urban Adventure: Super Cool, Color-injected, Turbo Adventure from Hell #2'' which includes a new comics adaptation of "The Secret Bowman" as well as the colorized version of "The Chair".<ref name="color2">{{cite news|url=https://bleedingcool.com/comics/bernie-mireault-the-jam-released-for-the-new-year/|title=Bernie Mireault's The Jam Returns, Rejects Blockchain Kickstarter|name=Rich Johnston|date=January 3, 3033}}</ref>

In the table lower in the same section, add an additional line:

In the subsection "A Secret Bowman", replace::

:Found in ''Tesseract Nineteen: Superhero Universe'' (2016).<ref name="bowman" />

with

Found as prose in ''Tesseract Nineteen: Superhero Universe'' (2016)<ref name="bowman" /> and adapted as comics in ''The Jam, Urban Adventure: Super Cool, Color-injected, Turbo Adventure from Hell #2'' (2022).<ref name="color2" />

Reason for the change::: Wikifies "About Comics", removes claim that there were "colorized" versions in a black-and-white book, and (primarily) added in the newly-released issue.

I am not performing this edit myself as I have a strong conflict of interest: I am publisher of the About Comics line and thus of this new issue. --Nat Gertler (talk) 19:10, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Done NatGertler I have reviewed and implemented your proposed changes. Best, Spencer^T•C 22:29, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The trade paperback collection The Jam:: Urban Adventure: Beginnings was released today. It includes the New Triumph material and issues 1-5, with slight reworking. More details here. I am the publisher of the volume, and between a conflict of interest and my retirement from article editing, will not add this material to the article myself, but I suggest that someone does (and also updates the chart to include the second color special.) --Nat Gertler (talk) 02:55, 3 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
