Did anyone here see Serenity stuff at ComicCon? I hear it went well, but not from anyone who knew enough Jossy stuff to give me details.

Firefly 4: Also, we can kill you with our brains
Discussion of the Mutant Enemy series, Firefly, the ensuing movie Serenity, and other projects in that universe. Like the other show threads, anything broadcast in the US is fine; spoilers are verboten and will be deleted if found.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Thanks for that link, beathen...
The very opening notes sound so much like the music they play over the casket drop-off in The Message . Neat. Two months. I can do it.
sumi's quotes from that article make me happy.

I'll try to stay away from your wheaties.
Note that the file names (not just the link names) of the last 2 samples beathen linked may be slightly spoilerish.

Oh, heh. I didn't even realize they were for Serenity. I assumed they were for different movies. Which is good, because I don't remember the names. That worked nicely. Oh. Except now I want to hear them. Damn.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Finally got my comic book! It's great: the story is good, and the art is excellent. Of course I got all three covers... I only read the Inara one; the other two remain bagged and boarded, because I'm like that.
By the way, regarding the name Inara, I believe it's the name of an ancient Far Eastern fertility goddess. I looked it up way back when, and now I can't remember where I found the info.

According to nameandfame.org, Inara is a Hittite name: [link]
Other sites indicate that she's an Indian or Hindu goddess of rice or rain/lightning. Each would tie in pretty well with the fertility thing.

All this time, I thought Hunter was a bitch. Turns out she was just hungry.
Who else just read P-C's post and thought "MANSQUITO!!!" ?
Just me?
Nope. Me too.
"HEY... MANSQUITO!!!"

Is that to the tune of Macarena?
