Comicgeddon TV
Mission Statement:

 In 1991, Wizard Magazine launched and with it the support of new publishers such as Valiant and Image grew. Wizard Magazine was a new type of magazine for all geek culture. They focused not just on comics, but on toys, on interviewing creators, on movies, trading cards, games, books, tv shows and alot more. In March 2011, Wizard collapsed. They tried to relaunch as an online geek culture magazine but ultimately failed and continued strictly with conventions. 
 Why Wizard magazine failed is because at the time of their drastic decline, people began going to youtube and comicbookmovie.com for everything they recieved from the publisher. It was free and they could interact with the community. With Comicbookmovie.com anyone could create an article and share it with the community and if it was well recieved it got front page status. It's very similar with youtube. Only rather than creating an article, creators launch video channels. Most channels revolve around 1 thing and 1 thing only. Today there are hundreds of channels in the geek culture niche which focus on either comic books or movie reviews or toy reviews or tv show reviews or funko pops or interviews or fantasy battles. 
 However, none of these channels bring all of those things together like Wizard magazine did Successfully for almost 20 years. This is where Comicgeddon TV breaks away from the crowd. We are a small youtube channel with big ideas. From the very beginning, I dreamed of making Comicgeddon an evolved form of Wizard Magazine. I wanted to appeal to the youtube generation.
 Comicgeddon TV, brings something to the community that was lost when Wizard Magazine became an exclusive convention promoter. And even now, Conventions are occurring to often they're losing attendance. But Comicgeddon TV is there to fill the gap. 


We focus on Dramatically narrating comic books panel by panel in a similar manner as Comicstorian. 
We focus on bringing to you the history of lesser known characters and publishers similar to Comics Explained. 
We focus on bringing you Toy and Funko Pop Reviews in the same manner as The Review Spot. 
We focus on comic book reviews in the same manner as Caped Joel.
We Focus on TV show and Movie Reviews similar to Jeremy Jahns or Chris Stuckmann. 
We focus on Horror like Hermie and StitchedTogetherPics.

While we are similar to these channels, we are also very different. We bring all of this Geek Culture Greatness into one place. Because the same people who subscribe to comic book youtube channels also subscrive to toy review channels and movie review channels and horror review channels and so on. We focus on less popular comic book publishers. We bring our own unique thoughts to the table and don't do the same reviews as everyone else. Where alot of people may widely hate a movie or comic we may bring a different point of view to the table. 
We hope to not only build our audience but also our team of creators. When we say that Comicgeddon TV is where All Geek Culture Collides, we mean it. Feel free to contact us to join our team and bring quality content to the youtube community or Subscribe to our channel and stay up to date on all things geek culture. We've grown alot since this little channel began with a single interview and we plan to grow even more in the years to come.
