Happy Birthday, Joss Whedon!

Joss Whedon, creator of Buffy: The Vampire Slayer, Firefly and Dr. Horrible’s Singalong Blog turns 47 years old today.

I’ve been a fan of Joss Whedon’s work since I discovered Buffy in college. I didn’t get the channel Buffy was on, so my mom taped it for me and sent me the tapes. So I would watch hours of Buffy at a time.

Because of Buffy, I watched Firefly from the beginning. And it was love at first watch. I became a Browncoat at that point and a lifelong fan of Whedon’s work.
