comic store heroes

Postby saint_matthew » Sat Jul 28, 2012 7:28 pm

Comic Store Heroes is a reality television series set inside Manhattan's Midtown Comics, the largest comic book store in the United States. Described as a one hour documentary about comic book subculture, it is British production company Parthenon Entertainment’s first U.S.-based factual entertainment production, and is scheduled to premiere on the National Geographic Channel on July 13, 2012 at 8pm Eastern Standard Time. As with Comic Book Men, a similar series airing on AMC starring Kevin Smith, the series focuses on the interactions among the store's staff, and with its customers.

Um... now i hate to ask this, but has anyone seen a place where i can download or watch this online? Because we don't have that channel here... at all.

Though I dont know where you can download it, I did see some of it (and put it on the DVR for later viewing). Though its interesting, it reminds me very much Kevin Smiths AMC series. Quite a bit of the show follows the employees as they prepare for NYCC, and searching for some kiddie comic from the 50s (I want to say Little Devil, but thats probably wrong)for the owner. There is some entertainment value to this, but it was not the be-all, end-all that I had hoped for.
