Read the comic. Any of the ships on that site look familiar? Maybe...all of them?!?

Yeah, I noticed that. Boba Fett's Slave I is in there too :)

I love the dedication they put in this:

"For Alan Tudyk, for making us believe a man can fly. A spaceship."

Classic.

Got it. Nice art (REALLY nice, actually!), but story seemed a little vignette-ish to me. Definitely enjoyed it, though. Thumbs up.

Yeah, I kind of agree. I think that it could have done with being a double length issue with more time spent on each story. Especially the third, which was way too short.

Still, good to see Serenity making a comeback. I support a full relaunch in comics wholeheartedly.

I enjoyed it as any firefly fan would. Doesnt really make any kind of progression other than the last page. Still was a good little window into wash's past. Just left me hungry for more.

Hey, Crazy. Yeah, a tidbit.

What about "Still Flyin"?
Anyone read that yet?

Is it a must-get?

What is the name of this new comic? I think I just went through this whole thread without finding that useful data.Does Shepard's Tale occur before the series, after BDM, or in the middle?

I picked it up today, my fave bookstore can't get it (lousy ordering system), so went to the evil bookstore to scarf up a copy. Must get for me. Shiny interviews, so far, good tidbits, much to read, will take me a while.

Serenity: Float Out.

Both covers have a big picture of Wash on them.

Yes, "Firefly - Still Flying" is worth it. I spent more time looking at the book than the time it took to earn the money for the book, at my minimum wage job. But I read slowly... that's why I got a crap job. Which means "Firefly - Still Flying" is even more "must-get" for you than me if you're well paid.

On page 142 of "Firefly - Still Flying" there is a half-page drawing called "Serenity Forward Cutaway View" by John R. Mullaney. I wish it was sized for two full pages. That's it below. There is more detail on the printed page than my scanner shows. Maybe someday a bigger drawing will be for sale. Or posted on the internet as a series of megabyte size jpg pictures for those of us who don't have wall space for limited edition prints.


The architectural illustrator who drew Serenity, John R. Mullaney, wrote, "Being a huge fan of Joss Whedon's Firefly series, I really wanted to illustrate this beautifully designed spacecraft in a dynamic perspective. Browncoats: Watch this space - I will be producing a series of limited edition Firefly prints in 2009" - www.thetopdraw.com/science_fiction_hi_res.html 2009 is history and still no prints from QMx.

Elsewhere at thetopdraw.com it says, "John is currently hard at work on a series of Serenity cross-section artworks for Universal studios licensee QuantumMechanix.com. The artworks are scheduled for an Autumn 2009 release." - www.thetopdraw.com/ Autumn 2010 is on the way and still NO PRINTS.

To show the detail in these prints, there are pictures of Inara's shuttle by John R. Mullaney posted at www.fireflyshipworks.com/2009/06/the-last-csts-reveal-%e2%80%93-sereni
