The Hall H Show – The Voice of Independent Creators

Hey there fellow nerds, geeks, artist alley evangelists and supporters of independent creators!

Thanks for tuning into the Hall H Show podcast!

Co-hosts, Aaron Nabus and Alex Benedicto and frequent guest, Keithan Jones, owner of comic book publisher, KID Comics and creator of the comic book, The Power Knights, recently hit the road from San Diego to Los Angeles for a special podcast with a few black comic book creators, Jason Reeves, Ruben Warren and Hannibal Tabu to preview Keithan's inaugural one day event, Black Comix Day 2018, which will take place on Saturday, February 17 at the Malcolm X Library in San Diego, CA.

This particular day was chosen specifically to coincide with the highly anticipated Marvel Studios movie, Black Panther – which will premiere on Friday, February 16, the day before Black Comix Day 2018.

Special thanks to Ben Caldwell for letting us record this podcast at the historic KAOS Network in the Leimart Park area in Los Angeles. Enjoy...and please come to Black Comix Day 2018 and see for yourself why black comic creators are important! Representation matters and Black Heroes Matter!
