Big Damn Bonus Content

The Browncoats didn’t just love Firefly. They made history with their passion.

At Rose City Comic Con 2025, Michael flew out to Portland to join fans and creators for a special panel: Firefly & Serenity: A History of the Fandom, 20 Years Later.

In this bonus episode of The Big Damn Podcast, you’ll hear the story of how fans launched a guerilla marketing campaign that helped bring Serenity to the big screen, created a fan film that raised over $100,000 for charity, and proved what community-driven storytelling can achieve.

This episode is not just a look back — it’s a reminder of what’s possible when fans unite around something they love.

Special thanks to PDX Guild of Geeks and Geek the Halls for making this trip and recording possible.
