If you are a fan of Firefly you are in for a treat. Firefly “Return to the Earth that Was” is 147 pages of your favorite crew of the Serenity. Captained by Kaylee, the crew is being chased by bounty hunters, Kaylee discovers an Alliance portal that provides bounty hunters the ability to transport across space. This makes running from them a little difficult!

At the same time we have Zoe, her daughter Emma, and Simon who are no longer on the Serenity but are also being chased. Then out of no where Zoe runs into who seems to be Wash? What? He has been dead! But is this really Wash?

With the Serenity being on the run for some time narrowly escaping bounty hunters, Kaylee decides enough is enough! The crew of the serenity decides it is time to go after this portal, or the running will never end!

Firefly “Return to the Earth that Was” is Firefly issues 25 – 28.

Written by Greg Pak who has written X-Men, Hulk, Star Wars and more for Marvel, Batman/Superman, Action Comics for DC, John Wick for Dynamite, and much more.

Art is by Ethan Young, Simon Di Gianfelice, and Pius Bak.

Firefly is created by Josh Whedon. Firefly aired for one season in 2002. Since then there has been a cult following, a new series Serenity on Netflix (2 seasons), and now at home at Boom Studios.

If you are a Firefly fan then you are already collecting the Firefly series at Boom. If not, sit back and enjoy the amazing family that makes up the Serenity!
