''The Warriors: Jailbreak'' is a four-issue comic book series written by Erik Henriksen and published by Dynamite Comics. It serves as a sequel to the CultClassic movie ''Film/TheWarriors''.
Taking place a few month after the events of the movie, the comic follows what happened to the Warriors after the events of the movie and sees them coming up with a plan to bust Ajax from prison.
!Tropes
* ADayInTheLimelight: Rembrandt gets considerable focus here, being the one who gets Swan to decide to spring Ajax out, and getting his own subplot involving his art teacher.
* AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: The flashback at the beginning shows Swan was chosen by Cleon to be his war-chief after he defeated Ajax in a fist fight to decide who it would be.

* EnemyMine: The Warriors team up with the Gramercy Riffs to bust Ajax out, as the Riffs also have two of their own locked up in the same detention center. Emphasized at the end, when Masai declines Swan's proposal that they stay aligned like Cyrus had envisioned.
->'''Masai''': You should know better than anybody that Cyrus is ''dead''. And whatever ''dreams'' he had ''died with him''.
* HonorBeforeReason: Swan never liked Ajax and Ajax never had much respect for Swan, but even though it's a massive risk Swan decides to spring him from prison, because Warriors "never leave another Warrior behind."
* TheLancer: Cochise seems to have taken the role of second-in-command now that Swan is the leader of the Warriors, as he's the one Swan entrusts to lead the second group during the jailbreak.
* PosthumousCharacter: Cleon and Cyrus are both dead at this point, but it's shown they still left impressions behind on multiple characters.
* RousingSpeech:
** Swan delivers one at the Warriors' war council to get them pumped up to spring Ajax.
** Masai gives one once the Riffs and Warriors meet up outside the detention center. Swan also gives another, much shorter one after Masai is finished.
* TwoFaced: Unable to paint his face while in prison, the Baseball Fury Ajax gets put next to decides to mutilate half his face with a pair of scissors as an alternative to "war paint."
* VillainProtagonist: It's not like how it was in the movie where the Warriors were wrongly framed and just wanted to make their way back home. Here, they're willfully conspiring to break one of their own out of prison, who was arrested for forcing himself on an undercover cop.
