Absolutely Horrible!

Joss Whedon, one of the wonders of the sci-fi/fantasy world and modern day superhero, has done it again!  If you don’t know Whedon’s work …. well, yes you do.  Whedon is the creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel and (the best series ever) Firefly.  Firefly of course was the precursor for the movie Serenity [...]
