Back from a gruelling week of travelling work, and the first thing I did upon coming back was to finally watch the shiny new Serenity trailer. Note to self: must rewatch Firefly DVDs at once, to still renewed pangs of frustrated love as well as new fear the movie won't make it to Germany for a good long while. But! Away with such fears. TRAILER! Ah, to hear that sparkling Whedonian dialogue again spoken out loud, by these actors... it's a good time to be a fan.

My cup of Joss goodness runneth over, for I also aquired (again, finally) Astonishing X-Men #9. If I have one complaint, it's that this is the second issue in which there is very little Emma, but this is nitpicking and simply because she is my favourite character. Otherwise, I loved. Only Joss would define an artificial intelligence achieving sentience as being sparked by contradiction, specifically the contradiction between an innate desire and an external (called parental, in case we don't get it) programming. Oh, Joss, you and your Daddy issues. Having Kitty and the new sentient being talk to each other, i.e. verbal battle instead of duking it out gets bonus point. Now, who is that on the last panel? This is where my drawback of coming to the fandom via the movieverse shows up again, because I guess I'm supposed to recognize her, or am I?

And, last but not least, I bought Angel's fifth season. Devoting myself to RL issues in the next week will be tough, because there are some great goings-on in the
