May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

Quote:Originally posted by Quietude: I understand that Joss Whedon is a comic book man at heart, but what I really want is a book in the Firefly universe written by him. In both the comic book and movie medium, it is always about stripping out the unnecesary information to get to the core of a story. But I want the unnecessary or should I say superfluous stuff because 1. More to read 2. More room to put in those extra details we all want. 3. Subplots a plenty 4. Have the book in audio form with one of the crew reading it, if not all reading their particular role (pipe dream I know). 5. Less production time, just need a picture for the cover and not pictures for the whole story. Art is art after all and cannot be rushed. Still looking forward to this comic!!!

If we're not going to get more stories with the actors anytime soon then I want books, lovely books I can immerse myself in and enjoy. I love the comics, don't get me wrong. But I want something meatier. I want that beautiful detailed lovingly layered thing that Joss does better than anyone else. *I don't want much do I?* I'll shush now.

Quote:Originally posted by Muggi: I hope that was the case, that they thought Book was this Derrial guy..because the instant "get this man to the infirmary" just never sat well with me after hearing the "Book was a dirty cop" thing. It would fit SO well into the theme of the show if Book really WAS just a dirty mid-level Fed cop, using a stolen ident card. MUCH better than "Book was some super-high clearance spy-guy who had a change of heart".

Quote: I've been saying all along that comics are okay, but they just don't have the depth of a novel. I appreciate the comics and collect them, but why can we not get books? Why did not Joss not approve the Pocket Books submissions?

Quote: Originally posted by Leiasky: I'm surprised Ron's revelations about Book's past didn't get more press with the fans.
Quote: Originally posted by Asarian: So, maybe he just took that name to honor the person he killed. There's nothing yet that says he actually used his ident-card too.
Quote: Originally posted by PhoenixRose: Correct me if I'm wrong, but... isn't this a bad thing? Don't I remember hearing that when the beans were spilled on Book, it meant no more movies? Am I the only one crying?

Don't I remember hearing that when the beans were spilled on Book, it meant no more movies? Am I the only one crying? I believe it's a bad thing. You've heard the same thing I have. And no, I did my fair share of crying too...and so have a couple of my friends who I've told this. On the other hand though...in the Firefly Visual Companion Volume Two, when asked about Inara, it's Joss who says he still wants to hold that secret close to his vest and tell it, preferably with the actors, with film. So maybe we're jumping the gun on this a bit. The "vial of Inara" story has leaked, but the why of Inara's leaving Sihnon and staying far away hasn't hit the light of day yet...so I'm hanging on to that slender thread. *hugs PR*
