Comment on Firefly, the shinest damn show in the 'Verse
tal@olio.cafe 2 days agoThere were apparently several comic book series done in the Firefly universe. I don't know whether they're considered canon or what. I have not read them.

Apparently yes.

*Serenity* is a line of comic books published by Dark Horse Comics from 2005 to 2017. It is a canonical continuation of Joss Whedon's *Firefly* television series and the 2005 film *Serenity*, which are all part of the Firefly media franchise.[1] It was not an ongoing series; rather, it consisted of a number of miniseries and one-shots, released sporadically.
Starting in 2018, Boom! Studios began publishing its own line of Firefly comics.

How can it be canon to both the show and the movie? The movie wasn’t in the same canon as the show.

How so? I don’t recall any canon breaks, but it has been a long time.

How Simon broke River out is pretty significantly different, that’s the biggest one. A few other small things.
And I refuse to consider “Serenity” canon for other obvious reasons.
