Ok, if we can't have a Firefly Movie anytime soon, how about some novels? Star Trek, Star Wars, X-files, all
have stand alone stories in book form. How about
continuing stories through words? No offense to the
fan fic stories here, but maybe JW could "finish" season
one with a book series. He's probably already got
outlines of the seasons remaining episodes if Fox
had of continued it.

Walsh:"...that sounds like science fiction"

Zoe: " We live on a space ship dear"

Sounds good to me. They just need to strike a deal with a publishing company.

Well I would buy them!

And, if I ever get myself an agent and a publishing deal, I'd love to write them!

Book: “A duel?”
Wash: “With swords?”
Simon: “The Captain's a good fighter, he must know how to handle a sword?”
Zoe: “I think he knows which end to hold.”

Comics, I say!

Joss has already shown his love for the medium and his willingness to work in it.

Besides, I want to see those guys and the ship again.

And who says we can't have it both ways? Name a genre and there's all manner of printed media.

Writing is easy, people - all you have to do is stare at a blank piece of paper until blood forms on your forehead. Getting published - and I'm talking top-end media, not Internet fan fic publishing which is WAY more forgiving - THAT is hard.

LoL

Heck, the DVD set was just released shortly before this thread was posted.

I do wish there had been some novels published.
We even had some promised when Serenity came out.

Steven Brust (a proper published author) wrote a Firefly novel back when Pocket Books were asking for pitches and when it was neither approved nor disapproved, published it online. You can find a link here:

Two finished novels by Kevin Bell are at www.harriersandheroes.ca/firefly.htm

Quote:
In the years since the demise of our favourite program, there have been several graphic novels penned Whedon and his people in an effort to keep the Firefly burning. And there is a massive base of fan-fiction on the Internet as well --- some of it very good, others . . . well, I'll let you decide for yourself. But what they all share in common is a love and admiration for the characters and the 'Verse that Joss Whedon created. And so, like so many others before me, I have decided to write me own continuation of the Firefly tale.

Set not long after the events of Serenity, my saga is intended to expand not only the future of the 'Verse as we have come to know it, but to fill in some of the background as well.

The Joss Whedon script for "Serenity," where Wash lives, is

Yeah, thanks for posting those links! Meanwhile, there are numerous fanfics right here in the Blue Sun Room that are well worthy of being published. Anyone know of a thread with fanfic recommendations? (Especially completed novel-length fanfics worthy of publication.)
