Hey. New board.
Yes. It's funny. It's funnier if you read Jackie Harvey's articles regularly.
Basically, I see this as a sign that The Onion approves of Serenity. Jackie has notoriously terrible taste.

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

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Oh my, that's funny.
Michael Dorn as Dr. Boo-Boo, the kindly Reaver. Ship's Medic.
It's funny 'cause it's true. Or, it would be true in the Trek 'verse.

They also neutered the Nietzscheans with Steve Bacic's final Rhade. It's a thing. No danger.
But, hey, Andromeda.

I like Rhade, but he's no Tyr. Not even close.

But Tyr wins.
