River is made of Chocolate

Warning: http://www.riverismadeofchocolate.com/ should be considered a spoiler for the movie Serenity. That said... watching 'the complete River Tam sessions might be something you'd like to do too... viral marketing... gotta love it.

I would be curious to know though if anyone locally has a copy of the 3 issue comic that bridges the gap in time between the series and the movie...? Anyone? Bueller?

Maybe your local comic book store...?

Yes... but they might want money for them. And all I really want is a synopsis of what happens and how the story goes... I don't need to see the art (that would just be a bonus).

Most comic stores aren't terrifically concerned about people flipping through books, in my experience. If shelling out the $4/issue is that big a deal, then speed-browse.

I've got them. They're not crucial, I expect to the enjoying of the movie, but it is a good story in its own right. There was some confusion that I didn't really figure out until the third issue, but I suspect that was just me.

Hows & Whys
Who we are

Blue has been known to toss a disc around a field from time to time, and thinks that you should as well. He lives either on the Internet or in Toronto, depending on your perspective. Ask him no questions and there's a good chance he'll tell you no lies. [Site]

Brent hosts the box from which we dangle our conversations, for which we are all eternally grateful. Gratitude is most easily expressed in small bills. Formerly a pawn of the Evil Empire (or maybe a Knight), he has gone over the wall and now toils at a small computer game company in Alberta that no one except for ten million gamers has ever heard of. [Site]

Kael occasionally gets called "Mike"; mostly by people who don't know him. He cooks, he cleans, he maintains Unix servers... what else could you ask for? Currently a slave to the Man, by which we mean retail sales. He has secret plans, but we can't tell you about them. In fact, we've already said too much. [Site]

Lisa is a recreational therapist without a cause. She entertains dreams of ruling over an empire of scrapbooking. Has a well-deserved reputation for enthusiasm, common sense, and tiredness. Ask her about her teapots, but don't touch them.

Matt is just this guy, you know? A mathematician by training and a layabout by inclination; he currently has an Urban Commuter Campus in the American Midwest convinced that they should pay him for plying these trades. The designer and administrator of this site, which means in a sense this is all his fault. [Site | E-mail]

Sky is a salesman during the day. At night he doesn't bother: his words are like unto those of a god, and you can agree or you can be wrong. Lives in the World of Warcraft, with a sattelite office in Toronto. Known to play games on occasion.

Wendy has never run away to join the circus, but pursuing graduate work in medical imaging is perhaps just as good. She didn't choose her current abode on the basis of proximity to a Toronto Public Library branch, but we wouldn't put it past her. Married to one of the other authors here, but you'll have to read the archives to find out which one. [Site]
