Set in the year 2517, Firefly follows the crew of the Serenity, a smuggling ship operating on the fringes of Alliance space. Captain Malcolm “Mal” Reynolds (Nathan Fillion) is a veteran of a civil war, bitter about having fought for the losing side and now making his living as an outlaw smuggler out among the distant colonies forgotten and ignored by the Alliance. However, after taking on paying passengers, Mal finds himself caught up in a conspiracy likely to bring the whole Alliance military down on him and his crew.
The show always gave an impression that Mal had been hardened by war, andwith theirFireflycomics, Boom!
I had a lot of fun.
The show was never afforded the time to deepen the motivations of each character, namely its lead.
Firefly: Malcolm Reynolds: Year One#1will be available on September 4 from BOOM!
