Great issue! Especially Kaylee handing out a little payback! Gotta like Jayne wearing the same t-shirt in the comic he wore in Jubal's episode, Objects in Space:

I agree, I was giggling a little too maniacally myself...

This is actually going somewhere. I like it. Took me a few seconds to get who was on the last page, though

That was a rather satisfying scene.

I've been very disappointed with the series up to this point, but the issue was good. The twist at the end was a welcome one. I'll be interested to see if he'll be around for the rest of the series, or just a single issue.

I thought we got to see an interesting side of Jayne, although it was borderline out-of-character. Similarly, while Kaylee's gumption DID make me cheer, once my initial response wore off, I couldn't help but think that it was pretty out-of-character. She just doesn't have that steel in her spine, at least not that we've seen.

I looked for the shirt Jayne wears in the comic by using the phrase "firefly jayne pin-up girl shirt"

I found it! Not buying it, but pleased it is for sale.

Little girls grow up, hon. And Kaylee IS smarter than your average bear in some ways. Hell, she could be running her own ship in a few years...
I've been around long enough to know people sometimes change in ways you can't expect. I also get the feeling she was just messing with Jubal. Mind games are FUN

Comic book sales for January. 29th overall but #1 Dark Horse seller!

Comic book sales for February. 42nd overall but #2 Dark Horse seller (right behind Star Wars).

I wonder how Dark Horse can justify NOT extending the series past 6 issues. Especially since they have other titles selling way, way fewer copies, and those comics are still being published.

Just sayin'.

I don't think it has as much to do with Dark Horse, as it does the Whedon Clan and writing and authorizing them...

Does no one find it laughable that Early can take out a whole ship and a group of Fed Soldiers but Kaylee can take him out with a wrench? Not to mention that Mal for some reason knows were to find the Operative.

I do not fear God, I fear the ignorance of man.

The bounty hunter did a number on Kaylee the first time around and I figure she has been hunkering for some payback ever since. Women can be like that, plus she's comfortable around heavy objects.
