I envy all you guys. I pre-ordered from TFAW and was just told by them that they might not get it till next week. So much for keeping fingers crossed!

Just moments ago purchased the little gem from my local comic store!
If anyone's having trouble finding it, they have a whole bunch of copies, and will ship world-wide:

I've shopped at TFAW and had good luck. I'm sure they're doing their best. FWIW.

OMG! I just read the first few pages, I hadda close it!
This ain't no casual read.
No sir, gonna wait 'till Friday night. Popcorn. Sleeping Mrs. & kid. Cell phone turned off.

I'll revisit this thread on Saturday.

Picked it up today. Read it in one sitting.

I'll avoid spoilers as best possible...

Definitely nice to have more FIREFLY. Solid story... but a bit disappointing. Although I guess after all these years, it would be very hard for it NOT to disappoint.

I guess I'd say good, but not as "cool" as I would have hoped.

Seriously, EVERY comic, from Angel to Buffy to the Serenity ones have basically disappointed me. This can NOT be worse.
But it looks great from the first few pages.

Important enough to actually get me to venturing into comics.

Oh, it's not BAD. I just wanted more...

I haven't been overly excited by the Buffy and Angel comics either. Again, the stories can be pretty good, but because the tone is so different from the series in both cases, it sometimes feels off.

On the other hand, I DID enjoy both Serenity miniseries. They are pretty much spot-on for the feel of the series in my opinion. Except maybe too many robots.

I liked them more than the others too.
But the first few pages of "Book" looked better than the rest.
We'll see...
