Haven't bought any comics in quite a while, since the last Serenity one or when I gave up on Buffy, whichever of those events came last. So I don't have a regular pull at the comic store, and they were already sold out when I stopped by about 2:30. They took my name and said they should get some more next Wednesday. Went to the only other comic store in town and the guy there looked at me like he didn't know what I was talking about. They are mainly a used book store, and might only order specific titles requested by their regulars.

The price is $3.99, but I got a $2 store credit for some unknown reason, reducing the price to $1.99. Maybe everybody gets a store credit?
You can also pre-order the paper versions to be mailed to your house at
www.darkhorse.com/Search/Serenity
Or wait many months for the hardcover book (HC) collecting all the issues.

Wonder what Nathan thinks of the "well endowed" line?

Honestly, I would order and wait for the next one and read 'em together, the first one is cliff-hanger-y... But then I'm the type to wait for entire trilogies to come out before I see 'em.

I love going to the comic book store and chatting with fellow enthusiasts, but it's nice to know there are options for folks without a comic book store nearby.
Wishimay, I agree. This first issue is mostly set-up, with no particularly critical reveals that folks might want to read first-hand right away.

I've been thinking about the best reading order too. Here are my thoughts, but I'm very open to suggestions. Spoiler warning! You can infer some comic book spoilers, if you haven't read them.
Firefly, the original TV show (2002)
Natural starting place. In DVD order, of course.
Dead or Alive, writer's draft of unfilmed episode (2002)
Who knows how much of this would have made it, but if you're going to read this, this is where that story would have gone.
Better Days, 3 issue comic series (2008) & Downtime, single issue comic (2010)
I’ve seen a chronology suggest these could even be before the series ends, but I like them after. At the very least, to me, Wash’s relaxed/supportive attitude about Zoe & Mal makes it feel like they should happen after War Stories. The significant Simon & Inara interaction in Better Days is most interesting to me if it happens partially in response to Mal in Heart of Gold. Book having an idea of what River was up to in Downtime is most believable after Objects in Space. I don’t see why it would matter which of the two you read first.
Those Left Behind, 3 issue comic series (2005)
Starting to leave the series behind and set up the movie.
The Other Half, single issue comic (2008)
Other chronologies I’ve read put this before Those Left Behind, but I think it must be after. For one, Inara and Book are absent. Also, River isn’t part of the heist in Those Left Behind, which I think doesn’t make sense after this.
River Tam Sessions, movie teasers (2005)
Chronologically this would go before the series, but I like it here. Mostly to get me jazzed for the movie.
Serenity, the movie (2005)
Next logical step.
The Shepherd's Tale, graphic novel (2010) & Float Out, single issue comic (2010)
Since these are both separate narratives, for the most part not impacting the main story, I'd put them right after the movie, where I think they have the greatest emotional impact. I think this is the right spot for Float Out chronologically anyhow.
It’s Never Easy, Free Comic Book day comic (2012)
I guess this could technically be after the movie and before Float Out, but I like it better here, leaving Zoe’s reveal in Float Out, as intended.
Leaves on the Wind, six issue comic series (2014)
Clearly written in a post Serenity movie world. Has to be after Float Out and It’s Never Easy too. Because of Emma.
The Warrior and the Wind, Free Comic Book day comic (2016)
Needs to happen after Leaves on the Wind. Again, because of Emma.
No Power in the ‘Verse, six issue comic series (first issue just came out yesterday)
Deals with events post Leaves on the Wind

Yeah. I liked this issue. Only thing is the last series the first issue was better paced than the rest of the series too, and escalated much too fast to operative psychic ambushes and shooting off the pursuit of 40 prison guards during a high security jail break.
Last series was okay, but the pacing issue kinda killed it for me. Lets see if they can reign in the impulse to go over the top this time. It's comic books, so that's not likely, but better days didn't go too bad.
