I mean, WHY ELSE would Joss Whedon have signed with Disney? Avengers, shmavengers.

This Disney version of Joss Whedon's Firefly is incredible and it's a thing that needs to happen.

(Check out the larger version of the illustration on artist Stephen Byrne's Facebook page to fully appreciate its awesomeness.)

I mean, who doesn't want to see a version of Firefly with a tiny and deadly River Tam?

Or Zoe and Wash together again? WITH A HORSE.

And if that wasn't enough, Byrne's also imagined what it would look like if Whedon's Buffy the Vampire Slayer was animated by Disney, and the results are equally as awesome.
