In this ussue, we discover that Wash is nothing more than a robot created by blue Sun, but the robot does give his life in order to save the crew of the Serenity (not-including Mal), who ccontinue to be hunted, by ships coming out of the portal that they recently discovered. Nice front cover, good artwork throughout the issue, sensible selected colours to demonstrate the different environments the story line travels through. No artwork or editorial errors, fast paced action packed from the first few pages, only pausing to the rear of the issue once the crew have evaded their hunters, and talk about finding Mal. In conclusion this story arch is interesing, and new and fresh to the firefly universe.
Hmm falling back on the stupid robots which was only saved due to emotion. Also should have remembered that stupid sex robot in the movie... honestly I try to block out the movie as much as possible.
