Went out and bought the complete Firefly series. For those of you unfamiliar with the now-cancelled TV show, it's the brainchild of Joss Whedon who is behind series like Angel and Buffy and who will soon be writing The Astonishing X-Men for Marvel.

This show rocks. I'm so mad it was cancelled before it ever really got a chance to shine. The cast is fantastic, the action intense and the effects rival that of any big budget movie I've ever seen.

And it's funny. Not a comedy by any stretch, but there's something much more real and interesting about this show than all the Star Trek series and everything else we're used to from space.

So whenever you come by, make sure to ask to see and episode or two. Be warned, it's quite addictive.

Thanks to the huge popularity of the show on DVD and its incredible sales, Universal has greenlit a Firefly feature film... which Whedon hopes will in turn lead to a tv series. Seems like a backwards way to go about it, but this cast is magic together and we need more... lots more... and we need it now.

Trust me.

Tomorrow it's back to school for more work. At least there my comp isn't fucked in the head. This one needs a major tune-up. I'm going to try to work in time in the afternoon to go see Kill Bill Vol.2 or maybe The Punisher. I have to support Marvel after all...
