This is a beautiful beast of a book. It’s huge. There are 544 pages, in colour, in a hardback that just oozes quality. Right now, Amazon is accepting pre-orders and the book is due out at the end of September in the UK and the beginning of October in the US. That timing is important […]
Watch the Firefly 10 year anniversary Comic Con video
We might not be able to find a web cam stream of Comic Con this year (comment if you know one) but the heroes at Things From Another World did a bang up job of capturing the full hour-long Firefly 10 year anniversary panel on video.
Fluxx In SPAAAACE!
Just now the aim of the game is to find a Monolith full of stars, only when you finally play the Monolith card (which you stole from the future) alongside your Stars one of your opponents reminds you that your Time Traveller is currently suffering from Brain Parasites preventing you from winning. By the time […]
The Browncoats Mixtape
It’s not often you read the words; “A new release from the internet’s foremost comic book rapper is here!”. Actually, there’s trademark™ beside “rapper”. Is Adam Warrock trying to trademark “Comic Book Rapper”? Actually, that might be a little wanky but it’s probably a good idea if his music begins to played a bit more. […]
Firefly fandom may turn a college professor into a criminal
Respect to James Miller, a professor at teh University of Wisconsin-Stout. Miller had a poster on his door that features Mal and a quote from Captain Tightpants himself.

Fringe Firefly mashup to support the show
I’m a great big Fringe fan and I worry the American network will take it away from me. There’s a real risk. They keep on messing with the schedule, which always impacts audience numbers and then the networks point out audience numbers aren’t what they should be. When Fringe returns to American TV it has […]
Firefly as Star Trek
Here’s one that comes to us via the blog once known as SciFi Wire and now rebranded as Blastr. What we have here is an example of the fine art of photoshop. It’s the Firefly crew as the Star Trek crew. Which Star Trek crew? Not so sure.
Titan Books launches new site – celebrates with exclusive FireFly pictures (via @titanbooks)
Titan Books, who publish a wide range of must-read geek material, have a shiny new website. The design of it very much reminds me of a professional blog. That’s a good thing in my opinion. It’s more than just a shop window. In fact, it looks like Titan is simply linking through to Amazon in […]
