Official Description:
Jayne faces the fury of a family he’s long neglected. But even if he can find a way to patch things up… a distress call from Requiem could spell disaster. Pure devastation may be in store, along with internal conflict, distrust as half the crew hunts for a dangerous target, and a secret on Jayne’s end that no one truly expected! Despite Jayne trying to recklessly play hero, will the crew find more than they bargained for? Will the help of newly-trained allies be enough for Inara, Simon and Leonard to survive their newest enemy and find the cargo they pursue? Acclaimed comics writer David M. Booher (Specs), artist Vincenzo Federici (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Armageddon Game), colorist Francesco Segala (Maskerade), and Eisner-nominated letterer Jim Campbell (Damn Them All) reveal brand new mysteries, and the threat of an even deadlier weapon than the crew of the Serenity could have prepared for! Collects All-New Firefly #5-8.

Jayne has been dealt a baby daddy bomb and has to come to terms with not only finding out he has a son, but also facing the family he hasn’t seen in years. Haunted with memories of the last days he had spent with his family, he tries to come to terms with the decisions that he made back then that have led him back to his brother, who has come bearing devastating news. As if dealing with family drama isn’t enough, they have masked thieves attacking the monastery and the Tax Collector and his crew stirring up trouble. The crew of Serenity has their hands full and are split thin trying to put out all the fires.
Booher picks up the Serenity crews story following the events of Firefly: Return To The Earth That Was. We are continuing to learn more about Jaynes’ past in this volume, what led him to leave his family and eventually become the Jayne we know. Misguided decisions and epic headwear are just the tip of the iceberg and we are left wondering if Jayne’s mom was right and he’s a good person deep down, capable of being the kind of father his son deserves.
