Interesting. But I think if the people on Firefly remember historical facts like ancient Egyptian slaves drinking beer, losing the entire planet to invasion by the Old Ones might be a tad difficult to skip over.

Maybe the government tried to actively discourage people from talking about it. And no one really believes in vampires and demons anyway, you know?

Can anybody help a lazy-ista? I've meant to read Fray from the beginning but never got around to getting a copy and now with the discussion of it in show threads I REALLY want to read the whole series. But I can't figure out where to get back issues. The Dark Horse site was no help at all.
I figured i'd wait until they were collected in book form but I don't think I'm that patient.
Any suggestions?

The two places I look online are Things From Another World or Mile High Comics. Unfortunately, Mile High is completely sold out (except for issue #6) and TFAW is missing issues #1-#3. If your comic store doesn't have them, you might try eBay.
I know that Dark Horse will release the collected series, but it may be a while (say, Christmas) before they put it out.

Another social casualty...
lisah, you can borrow mine, and next time I go to my shop I can see if they have the back issues at a reasonable price.

ooooh ooooh thanks Kim! I'll keep 'em safe I swear. And I can return your Firefly tape to you.
I am not wise in the ways of comics getting.

Dark Horse is reprinting all of the individual issues.

Art Crawl!!!
Are they?
I noticed that instead of a little picture of Fray on the corner with the issue number - - that this issue had the Dark Horse logo. Is that a sign of a new regime or something?

A Dark Horse rep said that was a plan on a retailer forum I am on a month or so ago. Not sure if the plan has remained the same.
Dark Horse has been putting the horse head on a lot of their titles recently. Just a design change.

So how many Tales of the Slayer comics are out? I've got the graphic novel, and Vol. One of the short stories, but I'm talking about the current serial. I've got the first one, with Rachel O'Connor. Are there others?
