Joss Whedon Goes Indie With a... Supervillain Musical
No, I am not making this crap up.

For Joss Whedon / Nathan Fillion / Neil Patrick Harris fans out there... uh... ya gotta see this. "Because the world's a mess, and I just need to... rule it!":

This is a limited-time, one week, Internet miniseries. Episode 1 is out now. Episodes 2 and 3 are going to be out later in the week. After Sunday night, though, they are going to disappear. To be released later as a for-pay download. And as a DVD. Which, Joss Whedon hopes, "people will embrace instead of getting all piratey. We have big dreams, people, and one of them is paying our crew. "

Joss Whedon explains what he's doing in this post.

Basically, this is Joss Whedon and friends getting together during last year's writer's strike and "going indie" in the television way, circumventing the system. As he explains, "I finally decided to do something very ambitious, very exciting, very mid-life-crisisy. Aided only by everyone I had worked with, was related to or had ever met, I single-handedly created this unique little epic. A supervillain musical, of which, as we all know, there are far too few."
