Kevin Smith Originals Including Clerks is Now On ComiXology

 NYC, NY/LA, CA /That Shady Looking Van With All The Smoke Coming out of it – Just in time for Jay & Silent Bob’s Super Groovy Cartoon Movie (okay, maybe not just in time as we found ourselves a little preoccupied this past April 20th when the books actually did come out) comiXology is pleased to announce a digital distribution deal with Graphitti Designs and View Askew to distribute Kevin Smith’s original Clerks comics through comiXology, the revolutionary cloud-based digital comics platform available across the iPhoneiPadAndroidKindle FireWindows 8 and the Web.

“At first I was like ‘Dude! We need to get more 90’s comics on comiXology’ and then I was like ‘didn’t that Kevin Smith guy do a bunch of great stuff, when that one movie came out?’ and then the next thing I know I’m looking at this stuff in Guided View and it’s just like…whoa!” said comiXology’s PR guy Chip Mosher.
“I figured ‘What The Hell?’ sounds cool to me,” said Kevin Smith "I've been digitally manipulating myself since I was 12, but I'm gonna enjoy my digital comics way more than that favorite pastime! I'm ecstatic the adventures of Jay and Silent Bob are joining comiXology in the 21st century!"

In a puff of smoke, these books appeared April 20th, 2013 as Kevin Smith and company hit the road for Jay & Silent Bob’s Super Groovy Cartoon Movie tour. Fans of Kevin Smith’s one of a kind Clerks universe can now experience Bluntman & Chronic, Clerks, Chasing Dogma and the Tales From The Clerks collection…and in comiXology’s unique Guided View™ reading technology. Which makes for one trippy reading experience.
The full list of books released includes: (In case you didn’t actually read the above paragraph).

Comic Book Men on AMC This Sunday, February 12th

We are very excited to have two shows in things we love! These are two factors why we became the Pop Culture Zealots because we are huge fans in toys and comics. Kevin Smith may be best known for his screenwriting and directing, but he is a huge fan in comics. He even has his own comic shop, Jay and Silent Bob's Secret Stash. The television series was originally titled, Secret Stash, but recently changed to Comic Book Men. Comic Book Men will premiere on February 12th on AMC and following their hit series, The Walking Dead (our favorite series!!).




Talk about a great weekend in television! AMC is going to be doing it big this Sunday evening with the return of Season 2 in The Walking Dead and with this new series from Kevin Smith, Comic Book Men!!

Kevin Smith's Bionic Man #1 is Off to Second Printing

Kevin Smith's Bionic Man #1 is out in comic stores today and hopefully you will be in luck to find it. The Six Million Dollar Man was a very popular television series in the 70's and Steve Austin was definitely a pop culture icon. Who did not like this incredible series? There have been many rumors of a return with a movie, and maybe we will soon get that opportunity. Kevin Smith is bringing back Bionic Man with a new comic series that just was released today. It is definitely a hit! This is a great year of returns of great television series or movies in the comic world. 

After last year's critically and commercially successful collaboration on the Green Hornet, Kevin Smith and Dynamite Entertainment are reuniting once again, with the creative team that brought the flagship Green Hornet series to fans; Phil Hester, Jonathan Lau, and Alex Ross on covers! This year, lightening will have struck twice as The Bionic Man #1, written by Kevin Smith, has sold out immediately and is going back for a second printing!  And ask your local retailer order more issues of #2 and #3 of the Bionic Man, so you can be ensured to get a copy!
