Didja Notice?

 

The main cover for this issue depicts what seems to be Mal's gun holster with his gloved hand reaching for the pistol. The holster also has a charm on a chain of a Firefly-class vessel attached to it. As far as I have ever seen, Mal's holster does not have such a charm hanging on it.
