Stan Lee's Comikaze: a show that keeps up the hype year-round.

As you may recall from last year, Comikaze Expo did a massive promotional campaign. It paid off. We are not resting on our laurels, but we are working harder than ever. Our Comikaze Corps street team passes out well over 5,000 fliers weekly to various schools, shopping centers, and events throughout Southern California.

We also do tons of ticket sales through sites such as Groupon, Living Social and CBS Deals.

In  2012, we'll be launching interactive promotional content.

Our new Mistress of the Board, Elvira, Mistress of the Dark has created a Comikaze Webseries, "Elvira and Peaches Christ's HORROR HUNT". It's a kind of MST3K-meets-American Idol-type show, seeking America's newest horror filmmaker; the winner will recieve an all-expense paid trip to L.A., and a red carpet
premier for their film.

The winner's film will be screened and judged by some of the biggest names in the Horror world.

Comikaze will also be launching Stan Lee's Search for The Next Super Hero and Villainous Villain, an art contest geared towards kids and young adults.

Not enough? Stan Lee's Comikaze Expo is also working with Clear Channel on a huge radio campaign,  AND a TV commercial push 2 months before the show. All this, and our personality-loaded SOCIAL MEDIA. Stan Lee's Comikaze Expo promotes like NO OTHER show in the USA.
