Serenity Comic Book Series

stoolpigeon writes "CBR News is reporting that Dark Horse will be publishing a 3 comic series to provide material that bridges the gap between the Firefly T.V. show and the Serenity film. From the press release: 'The plot of the comic book series centers on the crew members of the ship known as Serenity, who once again find themselves broke and on the wrong side of a number of very large firearms when a heist goes awry, and some old enemies catch their scent. After facing one failure after another, Malcolm Reynolds becomes the target of a conspiracy between government and mercenary forces, and a tense and divided crew must try to unite behind their compromised leader...'"

    Firefly is a series created by Joss Whedon in 2002. It was aired on Fox, and canceled after just half a season (perhaps due to it's anti-authoritarian nature).

    Or even more possibly, it was cancelled because it sucked. I watched it, and thought that overall it was kinda like watching a 13-year olds daydreams. Acting was subpar, and there was no muppets in it. SFX was barely acceptable, but the whole concept wasn't really imaginative enough to warrant a TV-series - much less a movie.

    But hell, seeing as I've vented my opinions now, let's bring on the +5 troll shall we? That's what I'm expecting to be modded as since the dogma around here is that OMFG FIREFLY R0XX0RS MY B0XX0RS!

    You made an interesting Freudian Slip. You called it the Firefox Universe, rather than the Firefly Universe. Someone likes his new browser :)
