Electric Entertainment’s ElectricNOW partnered with ComicsBeat to produce "Con DailyPowered by ComicsBeat on ElectricNOW", a new show that will give viewers access to top talent attending the iconic San Diego Comic-Con and a run-down of the show’s activities. The program coincides with ComicsBeat’s 20th Anniversary and will stream exclusively on ElectricNOW throughout the Convention’s run.

Dean Devlin, CEO of Electric Entertainment states, “I recall going to early Comic-Cons to promote my films such as ‘Independence Day’ and ‘Stargate,’ long before it became the mainstream sensation it is today. I always felt the special sense of community the convention brought to fantasy and sci-fi fans. Now, collaborating with the award-winning website ComicsBeat, allows me to provide viewers at home who cannot make it to the show with an up-close and behind-the-scenes experience.”

"Con DailyPowered by ComicsBeat on ElectricNOW" will consist of four special episodes to premiere after each day of Comic-Con, hosted by high-profile online personalities, including Yael Tygiel, Reagan Yorke, Celia Schilling and Kari Lane. Each episode will stream exclusively on ElectricNOW.

Heidi MacDonald, Founder and Editor in Chief of ComicsBeat continues, “ComicsBeat is thrilled to partner with Dean Devlin and ElectricNOW to bring the excitement of the San Diego Comic-Con to viewers at home via 'Con Daily Powered by ComicsBeat on ElectricNOW'. As a pop culture writer, I’ve always admired Dean’s independence and innovation and his understanding of what makes people love great stories. We’re also totally delighted to be working once again with Yael and Patrick (Meaney) - no one knows Comic-Con and pop culture like they do, and together, we’re going to give everyone an unprecedented and entertaining inside look at the Con.”

The show will be produced by Lucas Thompson of ElectricNOW and directed by Patrick Meaney, well known for his documentaries including "Grant Morrison: Talking With Gods", "Neil Gaiman: Dream Dangerously", "Chris Claremont’s X-Men" and "The Image Revolution."
