“This isn’t censorship,” his statement said. “It’s a common‑sense standard to keep explicit sexual images out of school libraries, and we delivered exactly that.” lol there's no explicit sex in those FIREFLY books. guessing they just targeted comics, period.

Also unclear which books they're mad at. We did multiple arcs with multiple volumes, so "Firefly Vol 1" and "Firefly Vol 2" could refer to several different story arcs. (Welcome to comics, censors! Correct titles are important!) I mean, none of them had "graphic sexual imagery." 🤷

Things they could be mad about: 1. Inara is a sex worker. Not really a focus of these stories, but hey. 2. We introduced an Asian character named Boss Moon who's bisexual and talks about her femme ex at one point. 3. The characters are anti-authoritarian outlaws?

We did a storyline called NEW SHERIFF IN THE 'VERSE in which Mal gets hooked into becoming a sheriff and basically does the job in abolitionist-curious mode. We did an anti-colonialist story called RETURN TO EARTH THAT WAS. I sent Mal to therapy in the last story in the collected omnibus.
