FIRST LOOK: SERENITY #1

Serenity #1 will arrive in stores on July 6 from Dark Horse Comics. The issue is written by Joss Whedon and Brett Matthews, with art by Will Conrad and covers by John Cassaday, Bryan Hitch and J.G. Jones.

Here's how Dark Horse describes the issue:

"This fall Joss Whedon, creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and scribe of Marvel's Astonishing X-Men, makes his big-screen debut as writer/director with Serenity, the big-budget feature follow-up to his cult-hit TV show Firefly--the story of a ship full of mercenaries, outlaws, fugitives and one law-abiding prostitute running across the fringes of space. Now Whedon pens a three issue mini-series based on the film with Brett Matthews, whose previous credits include Spider-man specials with Daredevil and Wolverine, episodes of TV's Firefly, an Angel miniseries, and the animated Chronicles of Riddick feature Dark Fury.

"The crew of Serenity once again find themselves broke and on the wrong side of a number of very large firearms, making the first issue a case study in how to mix intense, Whedon-style character interaction with cinematic action and violence."

Serenity #1 will be 32 pages and will cost $2.99.
