I picked up my copy at the Meijer in South Bend, IN yesterday morning. I got worried when I went to the new release end cap in the DVD section and no Serenity CE! However, the sales person knew exactly where they were - in another "new release" box near the front of the store. It seemed like there were only about 5-6 on the shelf, not sure if mine was the first purchase. I had not heard about the comic book option.

I went to a Frys for another reason and looked for Serenity CE. no where to be seen. I had to ask I guy he looked it up. It wasn't even listed as a new release among the new releases. It was in the aisle under "S" 2 CE and then the original, no comic of course. I fixed the arrangement so it would at least show the cover out instead of just the side.

Then I went to Best Buy in So Cal. Now I already sent my Dad earlier that morning to buy 2, one was for a co-worker, I really wanted the comic. I still wanted to go and see if it was still there and how it looked. I walked in and there was a table with DVDs on sale and Serenity CE right in the center. It was waiting for me. I took the last 2 copies on the table and then went in and looked among the DVDs. It was in a box, end cap I guess you call it? There were 2 spots about 4 I think. I grabbed 3 and moved them up to the front table and left one for someone to find there. Then I placed 2 back on the table for the next Browncoat and bought 3 one for each sibling. I really wanted the little comic book.

It felt like Christmas in August. Everyone was happy with their gift.

I still need to buy another one for myself as a loaner set.

...Rivergirl; I believe the 'tin' concept came from a release of the Firefly series or the film Serenity in Australia (so you didn't dream it) ...the CE does have special packaging that seems to be getting rave reviews (as soon as either my copies from Amazon or Universal arrives I will know)..can'twaitcan'twait

I picked mine up at a Best Buy in Indianapolis (in Avon). It was in the new release section, and there were only 2 left.

Mine came with the comic :D.

Got mine at Best Buy in Elyria around 4 yesterday. It was in the New release section and had about 12 copies still. But from the empty spots surrounding them I'm sure they was a lot more that got sold :}

I read the comic in the car and am going to watch the movie tonight!

Well folks, it looks like Best Buy is the best place to pick up the dvd. By all accounts it got the largest shipments of the dvds. And with the exclusive comic, Universal obviously wanted them to have extra incentive to sell them. So I would suggest concentrating on BB locations to get your CE. If we can sell out at multiple locations across the company, that would require a pretty big re-order from the largest consumer electronic retailer in the US.

While picking them up at places like Walmart is also a good idea, we should reward BB for ordering so many copies.

I checked at Wal-mart on Tuesday. The cashier told me that Serenity had been out for over a year. When I said that the CE was being released and asked if she would check the computer, she did--she showed me the screen and it said that it was only available on-line. However, one of the other employees overheard and said that he had made a space for it on the self, but they hadn't received any copies. Aarrgghh!
