Notes

Some fans have compared Firefly to the anime series Outlaw Star in its style and execution (and certain story content and plot devices). Trigun and Cowboy Bebop also have a similar setting http://whedonesque.com/?comments=2692. See also Science fiction Western for a list of other fiction which combines these two genres.
