Captain Malcolm Reynolds and his crew of Browncoats are returning! On Monday, BOOM Studios! revealed this gorgeous variant cover by legendary artist Bill Sienkiewicz. It was the second variant highlighted for the forthcoming new Firefly comic book series, which is scheduled to hit stores in November.

I’m pretty excited about this series. Why? According to a press release from BOOM! Studios, we’ll learn the “definitive story of the Unification War — the intergalactic civil war that divided friend and family alike.”

Firefly will be written by Greg Pak (Battlestar Galactica, Mech Cadet Yu) and illustrated by Dan McDaid (Judge Dredd). Some guy named Joss Whedon is listed as the story consultant.
