Browncoats gather, for Multiversity Comics has news for you. Yesterday Ain’t It Cool News Comics had an interview with none other than Ron Glass (Shepherd Book) in which he revealed that Dark Horse Comics would be giving us a return to the Firefly ‘Verse that we all know and love.
The tale will be written by Joss and Zack Whedon and illustrated by Chris Samnee (currently of Siege: Embedded), and it will be titled Firefly: A Shepherd’s Tale. It will take us into Book’s past and finally fill us in on one of the greatest mysteries of the series: was Book an operative? What was his relationship with the Alliance? This book should answer all of that and more.
On top of that, Dark Horse revealed in their Twitter feed that none other than Patton Oswalt (Firefly superfan) will be writing a one-shot for the series.
That’s a lot of great news for a well loved and long dead series. I really can’t wait to read it. My money is all over Book being an operative in his past.
