FIREFLY: KEEP FLYING #1 Announcement

KEEP FLYING in a Brand New FIREFLY Special Issue From BOOM! Studios

Discover a New Adventure Featuring Fan Favorite River Tam After the Events of ‘Firefly’ This November 2022

BOOM! Studios, in collaboration with 20th Television, announced today FIREFLY: KEEP FLYING #1, a brand new special one-shot issue, from writer Jeff Jensen (HBO’s Watchmen, Better Angels) and rising start artist Nicola Izzo, set many years after the events of Firefly, where River Tam sets the course for Serenity’s new crew and leads them through an adventure that’ll test whether they can keep flying or become forever grounded.

Find a crew. Get a job. Keep flying. These words of wisdom take on a surprising new meaning for River–many years in the future! While she relied on her family on the spaceship Serenity in more ways that anyone truly understood, an outrageous adventure will push River to her limits, and it will take a new chosen family to help get her through it. Her determination to keep flying, and the lessons the Serenity taught her, is what will keep River going, to stranger horizons than anyone thought possible!

FIREFLY: KEEP FLYING #1 features main cover art by highly acclaimed artist Frany (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) and variant cover art by fan favorite artist Miguel Mercado (Power Rangers) and more.
