Better Days will give you some good art with character insights and a fun plot, and the more recent hardcover printing of Better Days will give you some internet only released comics along with it.
Those Left Behind is also an enjoyable more serious movie dose of firefly (albeit the art can be a little wonky but it's still good for any firefly fan), as is the Shepherd's Tale. Between those you'll probably have all of them. I think with the hardcover reprintings for them they even have a nice consistency across the volumes.

Yes. Dark Horse has been pressuring Joss to continue in comic form for YEARS because those comics were the best stand-alone sellers Darkhorse has ever had.
But it looks like Joss finally caved and decided he likes money after all. Or he figured out where he wants to go from the movie with the story arc. Pick one or two or both, I'm okay with either.

As I try to be opitimistic, I'll go with he finally figured out where he wants to go.
"Serenity: Firefly Class 03-K64—Leaves on the Wind"
Quite a mouthful for a title.

I think he always knew where he wanted to go, but now he realizes that the ship has sailed - at least on any story set anytime directly after the film. Even if he did get to make more, they're all too old to fit that timeframe.
"Goram it kid, let's frak this thing and go home! Engage!"
