That said, she didn't look like a companion anymore in the last comic I read. Though whether those comics were "good" exactly is another story. Still, space pirates isn't a bad look - which is the only way I can think of that they could actually pull this off.
Hi Byte
Shoutout to Frem and any other OGs you might still be in contact with.

Nice to hear from you. I guess we'll see.

Figures that they're finally doing this now that no one cares anymore *sigh*
I have been summoned....
I actually hadn't heard about the brand new verse comic but I think it is an excellent idea. There's a lot of room there to bring in a fresh new cast but allow original series cast members to make stops in. But I agree, Disney would most likely ruin it. I wish Whedon or Espenson would run with the idea to one of the 800 streaming services and make something worth while out of it.
-----------------------------
I pray for one last landing,
on the globe that gave me birth.
Let me rest my eyes on the fleecy skies
and the cool, green hills of Earth.

I'd like to hope that there is someone at Disney that actually liked the series and wants to do right by it, but I have a feeling it's just content that comes with a pre-cut fan base to them.

Then the jokes on them because there is no such thing as a pre-cut browncoat.

I'm sure everybody that loved the new Star Wars will love the new Firefly.

:-D It's from Heinlein's short story "The Green Hills of Earth."

Exactly. JJ Abrams said he'd never been a fan of Star Trek or even really seen it before he went about tearing its soul out to make a pointless action movie. And he did the same thing to Star Wars for Disney.
They think we'll be grateful for any new content and hope that some Browncoats don't have Disney+ yet and will fork over their money.
