I would love to hear a little bit about your reasoning for some of these placements. Why didn’t you leave Objects in Space as the final Firefly episode? I’m also wondering about Unification War, and honestly, all of the comics.
The only thing you’re missing are the new comics: Unification War Vol. 2, Bad Company (one-shot), and The Sting (upcoming graphic novel). Personally, I also include the short stories from “Still Flying,” seeing as they’re all written by writers that worked on the show.
Thanks.
It turns out that the episode order is an error on my part based on the version of the episode I saw – I’ll have to correct that. (Details of how it happened can be found here, in the final entry of the Trivia section.)
The missing comics I have left out on purpose, mostly because they are not yet published in collected form (but also because I haven’t read them myself yet).
And I didn’t realise that there were short stories in “Still Flying” – I thought it was an entirely non-fiction book. I’ll have to track that one down and add the stories – thank you for bringing it to my attention!
