Really? REALLY?

This is both a match made in heaven and a special ring of the special hell.

Dear Buddha, please bring me a pirate and a, well, another pirate...

For the record, I have not yet voted. This requires some thought, people!

My first impulse is simply to say that, well, Han came first.

That said:

They both shot first, dammit. But Mal edges out Han as he's done it a few more times.

They've both got snark out the wazoo, but Mal adds Firefly-speak, which skyrockets him upward.

Neither has any love for the Empire, but Mal was always a Rebel, whereas Han once fought with the baddies.

And if one brings in the actors:

Han is played by Harrison Ford, who's not only great friends with Jimmy Buffett but also worshiped by the younger Fillion. He has some cred here. Then again, I love that Fillion like he loves the Ford.

And Harrison Ford has never done anything particularly nice for me. The same cannot be said of Nathan Fillion.

And speaking of niceness, I love the elder Fillion, too.

And that PJ guy who hangs with them sometimes?  Well, he totally rocks.

So:

It's Mal, folks. Dear Jedi in heaven forgive me, but it's Mal.

Besides, we all know I'm a Luke fan.

That was going to be my stance, too. Just wasn't going to vote because I was so torn. Then I started listing my reasons for being torn and realized Mal edged out the competition.

I'm ok with that. Besides, once again...see icon...
