This week’s visit to the comic book store proved to be more fruitful as I went back issue hunting for the Robin # 177-181, the final story arc before the series ends with issue # 183. Final Crisis and Final Crisis: Revelations is also coming to an end and I have high hopes for an epic conclusion as Marvel’s Secret Invasion was a complete disappointment. Serena picked up a graphic novel that caught her eye as well a little damn hero that screamed, “IMPULSE BUY ME NOW!” She also picked up The Art of Paul Duffield (FreakAngels) as well as the latest issue of Sketch magazine. Gotta find some time this weekend to bag/board and organize this month’s and last month’s comics.

SERENA’S IMPULSE PURCHASE:

It’s the Serenity Little Damn Heroes Mal Animated Maquette!

“I aim to misbehave.”

With these words, Malcolm Reynolds, captain of the Firefly-class transport Serenity, let loose upon the Alliance the kind of retribution only a man with nothing to lose can exact. Now Mal, the man of action, is captured in this limited-edition, hand-painted Serenity Little Damn Heroes Mal Animated Maquette, designed by well-known artist Adam Levermore-Rich, creator of the Blue Sun Travel Posters and the best-selling Battlestar Galactica Propaganda Posters.

The 4 1/2″ resin statue shows Mal ready for action: Gun drawn and browncoat billowing behind him as if he’s just taken a bead on some Purple Belly who’s earned his righteous ire. Details in the Serenity Little Damn Heroes Mal Animated Maquette include screen-accurate sculpts of his boots, suspenders, and even his pistol.

Only 1,000 limited-edition “Aim to Misbehave” maquettes will be made, after which this design will be retired forever. “Aim” is the second in a series of QMx Little Damn Heroes Animated Maquettes, celebrating the spirit of Serenity’s crew (and maybe a couple of their most noteworthy enemies, as well). ~ via TFAW
