I am all a-squiggle with fangeeky joy today. Not only will there be comic books, there will be action figures. Pixel Barrell reports from this weekend's Toy Fair that there will be a Mal, a variant Mal, a Jayne, a variant Jayne (good grief with the variants!) and possibly a Reaver, out in September to coincide with the movie release.
Sorry I don't have the link, but it's on Whedonesque.

Um, what variant would that be? Wouldn't the obvious one just require the removal of clothing?
You comic book peeps will have to speak among yourselves. Even the incredible art and story of the
Fray
books left me wishing for a movie or novel.
Sure, I
bought
'em.
I'm a Philistine. I'm not
insane.
Boy, illusions are shattered. Gus is not a comic book fan.
Speaking of the comics, they really seem to wanting to take all of my money, as there will be variant covers that have each of the characters on the cover - and I think it is only a three-issue series, so that means multiple copies of each issue.
Of course, I could only buy one copy of each issue, but I am insane.
(Jeff, I have a really ragged Spiderman #1 under glass on the wall next to my computer.)
Still, I get dates. It is a wonder.
My sister threw out my comics once when i was a wee lad, including some early Marvel titles collected by my older brother.
The earliest on I can find now is the issue where Doc Ock killed Chief Stacy and Spider-Man was blamed.
No.
I refuse to believe that my post killed the thread.
I blame DX's sister.
I used to have the Dark Phoenix run of X-men, as well as a 1st edition, 1st printing of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #1.
I blame DX's sister.
My sister is to blame for a lot of things (believe me), but she would never, ever, throw out comic books.
Now Daniel's sister, OTOH...
After scolding myself for even thinking of wasting money buying all the variant covers, I've given in and admitted that I will probably not only buy them all, I'll buy two of each - one to keep bagged and one to pet and fondle.
The Jayne figure should come with all his hats.
