Serenity: Leaves on the Wind #3 (2014) deepens the stakes in this powerful continuation of the Firefly saga, expertly written by Zack Whedon with art by Georges Jeanty. As the third instalment in the six-part series published by Dark Horse Comics, this issue intensifies the tension and emotional weight following the aftermath of the Miranda revelation, placing Captain Malcolm Reynolds and his crew in even graver danger as the Alliance’s retaliation begins to take shape.

Picking up immediately where the previous chapter left off, issue #3 brings fresh developments that push the narrative—and the characters—to breaking point. The once-widely scattered resistance is beginning to stir in response to Mal’s actions, and the crew of the Serenity is reluctantly finding itself at the centre of something far larger than themselves. Meanwhile, River Tam’s fractured memories begin to reveal deeper secrets about the Alliance’s experiments, turning her into a living key to the enemy’s darkest ambitions.

In a gripping subplot, the crew discovers a new ally with intimate knowledge of the Alliance’s plans—an individual whose motives may not be entirely trustworthy. As alliances shift and new threats emerge, Zoe’s dire medical condition adds a deeply personal element to the crew’s ongoing struggles. The emotional toll is palpable, with every decision carrying consequences that could upend their fragile unity.

Artist Georges Jeanty continues to deliver atmospheric, character-driven visuals. His portrayal of the Serenity cast is expressive and true to the spirit of the original series, with layouts that keep the pacing sharp and immersive. Laura Martin’s colouring brings a muted, moody tone that reflects both the space-western setting and the heavy themes of sacrifice, resistance, and survival.

This issue shines not only for its thrilling plot developments, but for its heart. At its core, it’s a story about found family, loyalty, and the cost of doing what's right in a world that wants you silent. Whedon’s script handles these themes with care, balancing urgency and tenderness in equal measure.
