Christian Comic Arts Society

A Network of Christian Fellowship for Comics Fans, Pros, and Amateurs

The Comic-Con is going OUTSTANDING.

WE NEED YOU FOR TWITTER in 2012
For 2012, we really need 1-2 people who won't be able to be at the Con BUT who
really want to know everything that is happening there, and let our CCAS
followers know the best of the best news, pics and info.

This person or people would monitor the Twitter flow for the #ComicCon and
#SDCC streams on Twitter and review then repost anything that might be interest
to our CCAS followers. You would know everything awesome that happens at Con.

You would also be creating a very recongnizable presence for CCAS in the flow:
Talk about being in the world but not of it! :) Contact me, Scott A. Shuford
through the CCAS site or at ScottATFrontGateMedia.com if interested.

THIS YEAR SO FAR
We had a GREAT mixer on Thursday night! For the first time ever, we had Senior
Vice Presidents from Zondervan and Thomas Nelson publishers attending the Con
to see what it's all about. The Christian industry folks have not sent that
high level of exec in the past. We had a ton of industry pros attend including
Sergio Cariello, Bob Luedke, Russell Dalton, Jerrell Connor, Brett Burner, Buzz
Dixon, and a few more.

The new corner booth location has been really really good this year. We are getting
a lot of traffic. Our new booth setup is a refinement over last year and has
opened up more room for conversations.

The Action Bible is selling like hotcakes and giving us a great platform to
present other comics from our members and friends.

The promotion we are doing for Russell Dalton's Marvelous Myths book on Chalice
Press about the Marvel universe is going great as well. Every attendee at our
mixer and our upcoming panels today and tomorrow is getting one, AND we're
giving one away every hour from the booth all week long.

I am bummed to only have been able to attend for THURS myself this year, but
it's been interesting to see the Con remotely from home instead, like many of
you have to! I want to see us help all the remote members get connected even if
they can't be there!

Blessings!

How this is great, God is good! I'm glad to hear about the increase in exposure and conversations, and how well The Action Bible is selling...

CCAS at Comic-Con

The 'Spirituality in Comics' Panel from San Diego Comic-Con 2011

In comics, movies, and even Broadway musicals like “The Book Of Mormon”, spiritual themed work seems to be unexpectedly coming from the least religious of sources.

Panelists including SERGIO CARIELLO (The Action Bible), RUSSELL DALTON (Marvelous Myths: Marvel Superheroes and Everyday Faith), BUZZ DIXON (Serenity/Hits & Misses), and MIKE SHIELDS (Blue Blazes) discuss how a new generation of comics and pop culture are exploring timeless truths and also address the question “Is Mass Media Our New Church?”
