I have to admit that I have not read a comic book in awhile, years in fact. The writing just got so bland and repetitive that I quit collecting and reading.
If Joss is going to start writing for X-Men, then I will check it out.

Thanks to Astriana for the defence - I didn't get the quote reference the first time I read it as I thought Ghoulman was having a go at my Got Milk? reference (Yes I know it's sad to reference Got Milk?). - That is an obscure reference though.
Also Fray is available as a trade paper back and I'd encourage all of you to buy it - not only because it's awesome but to encourage Dark Horse to continue to publish Joss' work, such as the chance of a Firefly series via Dark horse's Rocket comics (sci-fi) imprint.

There's good and bad here.
Good: Hopefully his name associated with the comic will bring some of that big fanbase to the Firefly movie.
It should be a fun and gorgeous comic (Cassady is a great comic artist)!
Bad: Cassady is a very very very slow artist, so expect delays. Hopefully, any slowness won't antagonize fans and drive them away from Joss and Firefly.

But hopefully, as X-Men is a flagship title, they will insist on the comic being far enough ahead not to mess the schedule up - they don't want to lose any momentum built up with the movies (that said, there are about a zillion X titles - but as I understand it this is something of a re-boot across the board).

It would be nice if some fan crossover from the X-Men title came over to Firefly, but I don't know if the numbers would be significant or not. Of course any number of fans is better than nothing.
