Whedon and Cassaday are signed on with Marvel to do at least another 12 issues of Astonishing, though there will likely be a gap between #12 and #13, as Whedon is about to enter into his Serenity promotion circuit during the next few months. I don't think Marvel has announced a definite date when #13 will ship, but the creative team has definitely been signed on. They first announced this at Wizard World Long Beach (I was at the Marvel panel there), and then again at the Wizard World panel in Philadelphia last weekend.For more news on what precisely was said, check out the recent news at <a href="http://www.newsarama.com" target="_blank">Newsarama</a>. The Philly stuff is still on the front page, and you should be able to find the Long Beach stuff without too much trouble (it was in March).As for Serenity, there is actually a Serenity comic book coming out soon from Dark Horse comics. Full details can be found <a href="http://darkhorse.com/news/pressrelease.php?id=1154" target="_blank">here</a>, but the bottome line is that Joss is directly involved in the creative process on the book. It ships in July, so you can preorder it now or look for it on the shelves of your local comic shop if they've ordered it.</blockquote>
