Firefly series discussion (Spoilers!)

[Bass]

Fillion is awesome.

 

[DIrishB]

Fillion is awesome.

You know what else is awesome? Better Days is out in 5 days!

 

[Bass]

That's the spirit!

 

[DIrishB]

That's the spirit!

I have it in spades.

 

[Bass]

:grin:

 

[DIrishB]

3 Days! WHOO-HOO!



Its been a very long while since I was this excited about a comic book.

 

[Bass]

That's because comics have sucked for precisely 4.56 years.

Scientific fact.

There isn't any real evidence for it, but it is scientific fact.

 

[DIrishB]

AAARRRRRGGHH!!!


THE RAGE!!!!

Serenity - Better Days was sold out at my local comic shop!!!!!

I've been looking forward to this comic for years (I remember first hearing about it in early 2006). I've been counting down the days to its release since it was solicited! I even left work several hours early today just to go by the comic shop and read it! It was the only comic I was picking up this week!

I get to the comic shop and what do I find? My LCS owner had only ordered 4 copies of the first issue, and all had sold by 3pm in the afternoon! Curses! I didn't bother telling him to pull it for me since I assumed he'd ordered plenty. Damn it! Damn it all to hell!

Oh well, he ordered more (he was quite surprised they'd sold so quickly...he was complaining he still had back issues of the last Serenity mini series so hadn't ordered many of Better Days). I guess I'll just wait until next week.

Granted, since I'll be buying it next week I won't feel bad about downloading it tomorrow (or even today if those who scan the issues are feeling motivated). Should anyone find a torrent link, be so kind as to PM me, would you? I'll be your best online friend!

Heh, a Red Dwarf reference. Cool.



Bass, did you manage to snag yourself a copy? Or do you have to wait an extra week or something living over in the UK?

 

[DIrishB]

So I read Better Days #1 (thanks Proj!), and I liked it. Just like the show, starts right in the middle of the action, and keeps on going. The dialogue is the usual sharp, intelligent, snarky Whedon, and it was nice seeing life breathed into these characters again, even if it is on paper. Looking forward to the next issue!

Timeline wise, it takes place after the last episode of Firefly ("Objects in Space") and before Those Left Behind.

 

[ProjectX2]

I liked the Hero of Canton reference.

 

[Bass]

I got the issue yesterday. It was pretty cool. I like the idea of them being millionaires.

 

[Ultimate Houde]

I got several co-workers addicted to Firefly.

A Firefly party will be held two Saturdays from now cause of it.

 

[Bass]

Sweet.

A bunch of scientists at a Firefly-themed party?

Man, you all are so getting laid that night.






Don't worry, Firefly makes my girlfriend horny too...or it could just be Nathan Fillion.

Poor poor misguided DIrishB.

Scientists can be one rowdy bunch.

Wouldn't you have to be, given the extremely boring nature of your jobs?

 

[Ultimate Houde]

Of course.

 

[DIrishB]

Of course.

Ok then.
