“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.

I mean, this was a mainstream direct market monthly comic based on a 2002 Fox TV show? There's not even any nudity?

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." 🤷

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.
