 Rating:  - Great art and a nice little plot but nothing that really grabs the reader.I think this is deliberate though as it wouldn't do to have a comic tell an important story in the firefly setting just in case a new series or movie is commissioned. While that looks very unlikely now at the time this was first published it was more of a possibility. That aside this is Ok, the art is nice and the characters are recognisable. The plot is simple and a bit too light but the characters are portrayed well, its like a filler episode of a TV series. Rating:  - Great prequel to the Serenity movie.Even though it isn't aviaiable from Amazon directly, I bought the Serenity: Those Left Behind hardcover edition not expecting much, since the reviews I had put it down. I was wrong. This graphic novel is a great way to tigh in the cancelled tv series Firefly and the movie Serenity.

The characters, the setting, the dialogue, all of it is the product of a great imagination and genuinely talented writing.

The art is great, the dialogue and script all sit well with the established universe and style. What stopped me giving it 4 or more stars was it being hyped as filling in the blanks between the end of the series and the film. It gives you nothing that you hadn't worked out for your self if you had seen both the series and film. WARNING: I am going to explain a bit of the plot, but trust me, I'm not really giving anything ... Read More: Rating: - Average comic with big potentialThis comic is meant to bridge the gap between the 'Firefly TV' series and 'Serenity' movie. In reality though it doesn't really carry the plot forwards, or even broaden the Firefly'verse at all, except in vaguely introducing the 'Operative'. The strongest element of the comic is that the characters' likenesses are very close to that of the actors, and the dialogue also mostly catches their mannerisms. The rest of the artwork though is workmanlike and the settings are nothing special. As a ... Read More: |
