Perhaps this shouldn’t be quite as much of a surprise since Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel comics have headed to Dynamite as well, but… Firefly is back in comic book form with a new number one from Dynamite, and a new creative team: Mark Russell and Lorenzo Re.
This comes hot on the heels of the fan frenzy ignited by the not-quite-yet an actual animated series but maybe someday announcement by the cast of the beloved FOX sci-fi show. Here, Russell and Re will deliver tales of the whole Serenity crew during the period when all of them (read: Wash) were alive.
The book also marks a return to Dynamite for Russell after previously working for the company on Red Sonja and The Lone Ranger.
Here’s the synopsis:
Eisner Award-winning writer MARK RUSSELL (Superman: Space Age, Batman: Dark Age) and rising star artist LORENZO RE (The Terminator) invite you aboard the Firefly-class spaceship Serenity for all new renegade adventures! As this all-new adventure begins, Mal Reynolds is desperate for cash to keep Serenity flying, while Simon and Kaylee must pose as a married couple to pull off a heist, but end up with more than they bargained for when an old caper comes back to haunt them. This issue features a PREMIUM MYSTERY BLIND BAG which contains three limited editions of the issue selected randomly from a range of variant covers exclusive to this offering. Please Note: The number of Blind Bags is limited. Allocations may occur.
