Hey all--


I'm new here, having just discovered Firefly! Needless to say I loved it and immediately rushed out to buy Serenity, which I loved too (though not nearly as much as the series)

So, what's happening?

Bwah.

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.


Welcome to the site & the fandom GKromrei! Glad to have you aboard.

Not much going on right now as you can see by checking out the recent threads. Adam & Alan have landed series on tv & Nathan has a pseudo horror movie coming out the end of this month on the big screen. Waiting on shiny comics (no date yet) & a miniature Serenity statue which comes out in April.

Be sure to spread the word about Firefly & Serenity to everyone you know. The more browncoats (fans of the show) that we bring into the fold the better our chances at a future.

Keep flyin' GKromrei!

Now I am learning about scary.


Welcome, GKromrei! It's great to have you aboard! I hope you'll post a lot and contribute to some of the fascinating discussions going on around here.

I'm pretty sure FollowMal or one of her assistants will be along sometime to offer you your own browncoat. That's usually followed by offers of food! You can't beat it.

We're glad you're here!

Well, howdy!

That's about all the Texan-speak I know. Yup.

Anyways, seein' as how you're new here and all, lemme go back to the store room and find you something a little more...hrm...appropriate for life out here in the black.

*opens FollowMal's store room up and rummages around for a bit*

Ooo! New pics of the Cap'n! That chou san ba, she's been holding out on me.

Oh, right, I was looking for something.

*finds what she's looking for, walks out carrying a shiny new browncoat and hands it over*

There ya are! Welcome to our little corner of the 'verse GKromrei.

I think FollowMal said she's making cookies, and if not, I'm gonna go bribe her with offerings of Mal pics till she bakes us some.

I also see she's been rummaging in my pics... I was gonna surprise her with that one, gorramnit.

Welcome to our home, I hope it will soon feel like it is yours too. Post often, we love to talk.

Help yourself.. and make yourself to home. Pass the plate of cookies around, but I warn you they go quick around here!

Howdy all! I'm new here myself, having finally signed up after a couple of weeks of browsing. I'm in the DFW area, and I guess I need to go drop a pin on the map!

I can't get over the quality of some of the fiction, art and movies in the Blue Sun Room. Give it a look! It's worth a daily perusal. Reading for a couple of hours a day might be starting to impact work though!


Think of it as evolution in action.

Bill, you need a 'coat. Them 'coats look mighty fine on Texans!

*hands BanzaiBill a very fine browncoat*

We're glad you're here. Welcome home!

Oh, and may I suggest for your reading pleasure from The Blue Sun Room, two of my favorite authors, Kaele and Jetflair. Both of them fine!

And yea, I can't get any work done, between the fun of here and the reading and looking. But I love it.

Why, I thank you for the *fine* coat! It's just right. I guess this entitles me to get into a few fights on Unification Day.

I'll check 'em out. I've only picked up 3 or 4 writers so far, but I'm afraid the addiction must be fed. You guessed it, that means... more writers!

As a relative noob, only finding Serenity (and then Firefly) by happenstance, I've started proselytizing, but there are so many folks that *should* have known about this that don't! Oh my.

I personally found Serenity based on a great review in the Dallas Morning News. The phrase "What Star Wars should have been" sticks in my head. Firefly was a short step later. I don't think there's anything left to buy!

Sigh. There really IS no place you can be, once you've found Serenity.

She's only saying that to make me write the next installment.

Honest.

Hola, GK and Banzia, bienvenidos and howdy!! I trust your stay here will be a long and adventurous one, and have your pick of all the fine fixin's and a generous mug of Mudder's Milk. I hail from Austin, live music capital of the world. Some folks round these parts are planning a FF/Serenity marathon, sometime soon I hope. Here's the link: http://flipsidefilmsociety.blogspot.com/.
You'll find other links there to guide you to other Browncoats, including groups on Yahoo.
Again welcome!!

Howdy GKromrei- As you'd expect, there are a lotta Texas browncoats...you know, whaddya expect? Texans have natural good taste, and what could be more Western/Southern than we are? Texas is a natural home for Firefly, I expect.

Houston 'Coat here, where you from?
