Product Description:
Serenity: Better Days follows everyone's favorite space cowboys in a thrilling, action-packed adventure, where Mal and his crew take on a heist that promises a big payoff. But when one of Serenity's crew is taken captive and tortured, the gang must put their enduring differences aside and work together to save one of their own, even if it means losing the cash prize of a lifetime! Joss Whedon returns to the world of his blockbuster film Serenity, reuniting with Brett Matthews and Will Conrad, his collaborators on the bestselling 2005 series Those Left Behind.

In mourning for the just canceled Joss Whedon series, Dollhouse, I decided to pick up a copy of this graphic novel (well perhaps graphic novella as it isn't that long) extending Whedon's Firefly universe just a little more. This is an easy and fast read, and probably won't take you longer to consume than it would to watch one of the original TV episodes. (If you aren't familiar with Firefly or the movie Serenity, don't bother getting this; Better Days spends almost no time on "what has gone before." You don't need to read any of the other Firefly graphic novels, though.)
Is the story awesomely good? No. Is it enjoyable? Absolutely. If you're a Firefly fan, you'll enjoy the character's witty repartee, the plot twists (okay they aren't TOO twisty, since this happens somewhere in the timeline of Season 1), and the teeny insights into the characters' motivations. If it had been filmed as a TV episode, it probably wouldn't be your (or at least my) favorite episode. But I'm glad I spent the money on Better Days, particularly since it isn't that much money; it'd make a dandy stocking stuffer for any Firefly fan.
If you're looking for a seriously good Firefly wallow, however, I'd recommend you buy Firefly: The Official Companion first. It costs a little more, but reading the original scripts is a real hoot.

Based on the best TV series ever canceled, Serenity takes over the story of Malcolm Reynolds and the crew of the Firefly class transport Serenity. All the characters are back and written by Joss Whedon. The same drama and humor of the series is found in these pages. Fans will love it! I love it!

Joss really captures the heart of the essence of the characters. The interaction between Inara and Mal and how she knows his heart makes you want so much for them to get together. I love it.

I loved the Firefly series and the Serenity movie. This comic captures the characters well, and makes for a very satisfying read. The artwork is well done, and the resemblence to the cast is astounding!
Great buy!

This story is well thought out and very well illustrated.
I enjoyed it a lot. The characters seemed to grow directly from the show and movie as well as from the first comic. Everything in progression, everything well planned.
Highly recommended for Firefly Fans.
