The Firefly panel during Long Beach Comic Con was a mini-reunion.  Alan Tudyk wasn\’t at the convention because he was busy with wedding stuff (he was getting married the following Saturday).

I had some difficulty getting any decent photos since there was someone in front of me with a tripod recording video then taking photos manually.  The tripod was in my line of sight for Summer and Jewel, and Nathan was next to the podium.  I really have to say that I hate the lighting at Long Beach Convention Center.  They use reddish filters on the lights and the stage has too many dark areas.  Adam was in a dark spot at the furthest end of the stage from where I was, and he was wearing a baseball-style hat which block even more light from his face.

I think the funniest moment was Jewel\’s reaction to the mention of fan fiction in which her character, Kaylee, and Adam\’s, Jayne were \”involved.\”  She was visibly disgusted at the thought.  Either she or someone else mentioned that he (Adam/Jayne) was a like a brother so any romantic interaction just felt gross and wrong.  

I wish the panel was longer as I could listen to their stories forever, and it\’s so rare to get this many of the cast members together.  

TTFN,
