Hey everyone!

Ido here again, with two great announcements about the California Browncoats plans for Comic-Con. First off, I'm SUPER excited to announce that this year's charity is Kids Need to Read (KNTR). My excitement about that is nothing compared to my excitement about this awesome item we're going to be selling at Comic-Con, with all proceeds going to KNTR. (Copied from SerenityStuff.com http://tinyurl.com/5wxfhv):

"Dark Horse Comics is really cool. They are unbelievably cool. They
are, in fact, so unbelievably cool that they've joined forces with the
California Browncoats to make a variant Serenity comic to sell at the
San Diego Comic-Con, just to benefit Kids Need to Read.

Which is pretty cool, you gotta admit.

The California Browncoats will be selling the comics at SDCC. It will
be a variant edition of "Serenity: Better Days #1″ with the Will
Conrad wraparound cover art they used for their special DH 100
version, only this will display Will's pencils instead. 32 pages, all
the stuff from the first one, but with a cardstock cover for extra
specialness. They'll be $10 each, only 5,000 will ever be available,
and 100% of the proceeds (roughly 8 bucks per book) will be donated to
Kids Need to Read, the children's literacy program founded by Nathan
Fillion and author PJ Haarsma.

These will only be available at Comic-Con 2008, but even if you can't
go the California Browncoats are there for you. Specifically, on eBay,
where on all five days of the con they'll be selling copies of the
DH-California Browncoats SDCC edition of Serenity. Again, all proceeds
will go to Kids Need to Read. Bookmark their eBay page and be ready
(I'll give you a heads up when it gets close).

Major thanks to Dark Horse and to the Cali Browncoats sponsors Gabriel
Stempinski, Margaret Weis Productions, Creation Entertainment,
Poplollies.com, The Powers Team - Marsia and Eugene, Dwight Bragdon,
Done The Impossible , SaveHiatus.com and Quantum Mechanix, who helped
make this possible.

This is a great collectible and a great cause (funny how so many
Whedon-based projects combine the two). Check out the California
Browncoats site for more details."
