![]() ![]() “I always thought the ‘Avengers’ movie may create the situation where he could do it, but what ‘Avengers’ did was make him super super busy.” “He’d always want to do it but Hollywood’s a complicated place so he hasn’t been able to. If he could get that cast back together, if he could get all that money, if he could do it right, he loves all those characters,” Allie said. “He would always want to do more with Serenity. We’re not leaping too far forward,” Allie confirmed in relation to where the new stories take place in the timeline.Īn optimistic audience member asked if success of the comics may lead Whedon to push for a revival of the television show. We did a short story with Zack where Zoe was still pregnant. “We did ‘Float Out’ with Patton Oswalt, where we saw Zoe was pregnant. “Joss felt that ‘Buffy’ makes sense to publish regularly but with Serenity he wants to keep it special,” he said. “Then when Whedon opened the doors and said ‘Let’s see what happens next’ we turned all of our attention toward that.”Īllie also noted Serenity won’t be getting a monthly book, but will instead be continued with self-contained stories. “For a while we thought we were stuck in that limbo between the TV series and the film,” Allie said. The first audience member asked if Dark Horse has any plans to dive into the history of the Serenity universe. “It showed us Zack could capture the style of that world in a way nobody except for his brother has been able to do, so we said we’ve got to do more Serenity comics with Zack.”Īfter a few rounds of Star Wars and Serenity trivia, the panelists opened up the floor to a Q&A session. “‘Shepherd’s Tale’ was the first comic we did that really looked at the world from the point of time that the movie ended and afterward,” Allie said. ![]() Moving on to Serenity, which hasn’t seen many releases in recent years, Scott Allie informed the audience Dark Horse is working on new stories set after the film written by Zack Whedon. His crew - tough guy Jayne (Adam Baldwin), warrior Zoe (Gina Torres), her partner and ship's pilot Wash (Alan Tudyk), and mechanic Kaylee (Jewel Staite) - worry that they are carrying these risky (paying) passengers, as the Alliance is sure to track them down.“It’s amazing the first thing George did with Star Wars and these characters also ended up being one of the last things he worked on before retiring,” said Atkins. She wears gauzy goth dresses and teeters between anxious passivity and deadly accuracy, able to climb walls, cling to ceilings, break bones when "weaponized." Her brother Simon (Sean Maher) rescues her from the lab, and they take refuge on the Serenity, a ship captained Mal (Nathan Fillion). A prominent experiment along these lines is River (Summer Glau), an extra-sensitive telepath, brainwashed in Alliance classrooms as a child, then electro-refitted in an Alliance lab until her brain essentially blew out. The Alliance is not only interested in colonizing worlds, but also minds and bodies. Two sides have formed amid the expansion, the mighty Universal Alliance and the scrappy independents. 500 years from now, humans are colonizing space, terraforming planets in far-flung solar systems, jumpstarting civilizations in their own image, and wreaking havoc based on assumed values and prerogatives.
