At the very least, I think the Hands of Blue are a bit like a combination detective / police force privately owned by Blue Sun, meant to track down any "stolen merchandise". KF



Yeah, I agree. I've posted this link before I know (and it's a Wiki link so not official) but it's mighty interesting all the same:

Also, there was an intereview with Ron Cobb who designed the Hands of Blue ship seen in Ariel on the 'net some time back (lost the link, sorry) but it called the Hands of Blue ship in Ariel the Blue Sun ship at once point, so clearly there is a connection here.

The Blue Sun Ship appeared in the November 15th episode "Ariel" and is one of the Alliance's ships

Wouldn't the operative consider them all gone though, being assumably dead? I think they may be around still, to freak us out with their bleeding causing thingy.

If anyone gets nosy...Shoot em.
Shoot em sir?
Politely.

Always got the impression that these fellows are the "Operatives" of the Blue Sun Corperation.

You can’t stop the Signal.
Keep spreading the word about Firefly!

The comic also revealed that they weren't just "blue hands" but full on blue bodysuits for some reason, perhaps for augmented purposes


Can you be a bit more specific. I'm working on a fic where a character, a character-not River, gets into it w/ a HOB. It would be useful to know just how tough these guys are.
