To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

I'm sure these are the same people who thought Superman would stay dead. Or Capt. America. Or Batman ...

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Or fucking Barry Allen.

They did finally bring him back, right? I swear I heard they had done that after promising never ever ever.

They did. Fucking Dan DiDio. (I say this as a hypocrite with 2 months' worth of DC comics sitting next to me, ready to be packed for vacation reading.)

Well, yeah, but they held out around 20 years, and at least it's proving to be a good story. Bruce Wayne, Steve Rogers, Clark Kent back in the day -- they were transparently temporary.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Okay, I have just read the second Serenity graphic novel, and I have no idea what the fuck actually HAPPENED.

And, seriously, following plots is not normally something I find tricky. But that was some exceptionally shit storytelling, on top of the shoddy colouring. Or so it seemed to me.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Who could have predicted such a stunning turn of events?
