SDCC’10: Not going to Comic-Con? Dark Horse has you covered

If you aren’t going to the San Diego Comic Con, and you want a bit more from your show coverage than what Major Spoilers has to offer, then your local comic shop and Dark Horse Comics may have something for you.  Dark Horse and ChinaShop Magazine have kicked off the #NotAtComicCon campaign that will take place in the Twitter-verse and in 55 participating stores across the country.

Participating stores will create a fun and creative atmosphere where free drinks and over $200 worth of Dark Horse prizes will be available. In addition, Dark Horse Comics will make an exclusive announcement to fans at participating stores before releasing the special information to crowds in San Diego.

Fans looking to participate in the unprecedented, nation-wide event can find a comic book shop in their area on the following site:

Plus, during the week of July 19th, ChinaShopMag.com will feature interviews with well-established comic creators who aren’t attending San Diego Comic-Con to get their insight into the larger community rarely talked about in mainstream news outlets.

If you aren’t on the Twitter, now would be a good time to jump on and follow the hash-tag #notatcomiccon to talk about the upcoming show and event.
