Watch Joss Whedon's "Horrible" New Project Before It's Gone

“When Joss [Whedon] invites you onto a project described as a supervillain Internet musical, you don’t blink, you just say ‘yes please!' "

The first act of said musical hit the Interwebs Tuesday at midnight, and fans promptly jammed the servers.  Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog tells the story of the battle between the hapless Dr. Horrible (Neil Patrick Harris) and Captain Hammer, played with perfect swagger by Firefly’s Nathan Fillion, as Horrible attempts to gain entrance to the Evil League of Evil, overthrow the world social order, and win the heart of the kind and lovely Penny (Buffy alum Felicia Day), who spends her time working tirelessly on behalf of the homeless.

All three acts are now available right now, for free, at drhorrible.com, but only until midnight tomorrow, Sunday July 20th..  If you’re a fan of Harris, Fillion, Whedon, quality storytelling in general, musicals, the Internet, or evil, you should head over there right now and check this out. 

Remember: “Justice has a name.  And the name it has—besides Justice—is Captain Hammer!”
