Firefly Writers Compiling New Anthology

[Gaderael]

The only books that I have ever bought and read that were based on television or movies have been based on Joss Whedon collections (Buffy/Angel), and they've always had the Whedon feel too them. Reading that the writers from the show are doing the books makes me very happy, and I think that my wallet will be a few bucks lighter when the book comes out.

Inb4 me wants now

OT: I haven't seen the original

The original series rotates episodes on Hulu. Go watch it!

 

[Baron Khaine]

And now I need to go watch Firefly again.

Damn it, I had things planned for today.

 

[Jared]

I am mildly elated by this announcement

*squeals manically to self*

I share in this sentiment as this announcement gives me an instant sugar rush!

Firefly is a sci-fi television series that gained much of its popularity after a premature cancellation in 2002.

I'm genuinely curious: Does anybody that clicked on this story not know that? Haha, especially on a nerdy gaming site like this (not being judgemental, it's a good thing!)

But anyways, this I will buy. Day one. No question.

Ahh you know, it's always a good idea to get the basics out there. I'm sure someone around here hasn't even heard of Firefly.

 

[WeatherMan11]

Can't wait to see it

 

[Omikron009]

Yay! I'll have to read these stories.

 

[Void(null)]

Damn it Fox, Bring back Firefly!

 

[Ocelot GT]

"Shiny"

The world needs more Firefly, curse them for canceling it.

 

[Flying-Emu]

'bout damn time.

I am pleased.

 

[ffxfriek]

Must... have... right... now...

I am gonna be all over this the second it comes out! I'd better dust off my camping-outside-stores-waiting-for-releases gear.

I would love it too firefly was awesome

 

[Frybird]

Sounds very interesting.
(And i also think there was a nice dynamic between Wash and Kaylee that never really got beyond bits and pieces. After all, they are the two "good guys" of the (core) crew)

I too hope Whedon joins in on the fun since he has "leaked" some of the ideas and stories he would've made if Firefly would've become a full series in some of his DVD Commentaries

 

[Snotnarok]

I want more Firefly not a spinoff, sure it could be good but, it's just not it! Hack the Fox CEOs [owie] off first off for canceling the best show ever, and then make him [didn't feel like getting banned for anger toward Fox, so I'll replace that with I like toast] and whistled for a baboon.

 

[Volucer]

Me want...

Me also want a Jayne hat...they're shiny...

Speaking of Firefly anyone know where I can obtain the comics that take place before Serenity? I'd like to read them.

They have been collected in two trade paperback volumes. The first is pretty much mandatory Firefly reading in my opinion.

Well I do believe I just did this. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLnWf1sQkjY]

Amazon.uk and Play.com both stock them

Thank you both.

Your local comic shop should have the trade paperback, if not the back issues. Sometimes book stores carry the trade paperbacks in their graphic novels sections. They're usually between $15-20.

The one you're referring to is Serenity: Those Left Behind. Another three issues were published more recently with the subtitle, Better Days. A Shepherd's Tale and The Other Half have also been announced.

Next time I'm near my local comic store (Is ~10 miles local?) I'll have a look.

 

[maddog015]

Can't SciFi (ugh, I'm sorry Syfy) find a way to bring the series back? Convince Joss it's for the greater good. After all, its got a fair bit of a fan base.

OT: Count me in on it.

 

[Dapper Ninja]

Well, there goes any money I could have possibly had left after Heavy Rain, Final Fantasy XIII, Bioshock 2, Mass Effect 2, and No More Heroes 2. Why does Firefly have to be so awesome?

And I just remembered that I still need Assassin's Creed II. Great.

 

[Wakefield]

If it's Firefly, you know I'm on board.

 

[Faky]

Wow, just woooow. I can't wait.

Firefly was one of my favorite series. Even Serenity was not bad, but it was maybe to dark compared to series. Not nearly the same mood.

 

[theaceplaya]

I'm sure if Wash were not wed, he would take Kaylee in a manly fashion.

Because she's pretty.
