LOS ANGELES, CA (August 22, 2024) – Continuing to delve into the origins of the beloved crew of the Serenity, writer Sam Humphries (Firefly: Malcolm Reynolds Year One) and artist Giovanni Fabiano (Firefly: Malcolm Reynolds Year One), along with colorist Gloria Martinelli (Firefly: The Fall Guys), team up once again for FIREFLY: ZOË ALLEYNE YEAR ONE, coming this Fall from BOOM! Studios.
War between the Alliance and the Browncoats is hell, but when a bank heist is abandoned for a fateful team-up between Mal and Zoë, an altruistic bond is formed that sets the stage for the future fans know and love!
“Zoë is one of my favorite members of the Firefly crew, so it was a thrill to reveal how she became the Browncoat we all know and love today,” said writer Sam Humphries. “But the Unification War is a nasty, brutal era of history. No one comes out the way they came in, and Zoë is no exception. Giovanni’s art elevates this story to the level of a blockbuster. It’s dynamic, kinetic, and complex, just like Zoë herself.”
“As a fan of the series, this story captivated me so much that I was hooked until the end of the script, eager to find out what happened next,” said artist Giovanni Fabiano. “I am very proud to have brought Sam’s exceptional writing to life, contributing to a story that deeply engaged and entertained me while drawing it!”
