Reading the first issue of Leaves on the Wind, Dark Horse’s answer to a second season of Firefly, put me on a Joss Whedon kick, so I went through my collection of Joss-created comics. I wasn’t surprised to find that even though it’s been ten years since Fray was released as a graphic novel, it
A dual post from Kathryn and Elizabeth When talking about great couples from sci-fi and fantasy books, there are a lot of obvious ones: Harry and Ginny, Westley and Buttercup, Drogo and Daenerys, Katniss and Peeta (or Gale), and Bella and Edward (or Jacob), to name a few.
