My fellow Browncoats, most if not all of you will know about this already. But for those of you who didn’t, be advised that Dark Horse Comics loves us and wants us to be happy.
Because behold: the first issue of the new Serenity: Leaves on the Wind series is out!
It should surprise exactly ZERO persons reading this that I bought the hell out of that as soon as I saw the link show up in my email. And when I got home tonight, I happily slurped the issue itself down onto my iPad. Picoreview: gorram hell it’s deeply, deeply shiny to see these characters again. 😀
The art’s acceptable, by which I mean everyone is recognizable. The overall style is nicely gritty without being blatant and distracting me from the actual story. And the story–well! It’s kicking in not long after the events of the movie, and we’re seeing straight out of the gate that the revelation of what happened on Miranda is NOT going over well to the general public. The Alliance is now looking very, VERY hard for the crew of our favorite Firefly-class freighter. And so is the ragtag brand new resistance group forming, who’ve gotten it into their heads that Malcolm Reynolds should be their leader. I can hear Mal facepalming from here, you guys.
Which is all I’m going to say about it, at least in this main post. I call open season on spoilers in the comments, though–so if you’ve read it and you want to squee, COME RIGHT IN and let your Browncoat flags fly!

And just to get a few fangirly reactions out of the way:
1) Eeeeeeee MAL AND INARA eeeeeeee! <3 <3 <3 <3
2) AUGH Zoe! I don't know if I want to hug you or get really, really drunk with you.
3) How adorable is that baby?
4) OH GOD these resistance kids want MAL to be their leader. Half of me wants to snark on how they don't know him very well, and the other half is gleefully waiting to see Mal's reaction when he finds out.
5) Of COURSE Jayne left and of COURSE it'll be money that brings him back. HEE!
