Dynamic Forces' founder and CEO Nick Barrucci said of the upcoming show:

I can't express how excited I am to bring so many great comic collectibles to The Shopping Channel — introducing Action Comics #1000, a truly landmark issue of the longest running Superhero Comic of all time, to The Shopping Channel fans! This is a great issue that I feel those who pick it up will appreciate how many wonderful creative teams came together to produce this masterpiece, and we have it signed by a name very closely associated with the Man of Steel – Dan Jurgens! To add to that, we have Metal #1's – DC's best-selling event series – signed by Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo! And to have more Avengers and Infinity tie-ins to the show with signatures of such luminaries as Jonathan Hickman and Alex Ross helps create a very well rounded show. I've said this before, and believe it strongly, the ability to appear on air to bring these great comics to a large audience helps grow the industry one reader at a time. It's the best feeling in the world!

Also featured on the show are select comic book collections that include the Invaders and Marvel Secret Wars and many other popular Marvel characters. All comic books will premiere at the TSC Dynamic Forces Show beginning Sunday night in a special Midnight Showing Monday, April 16th at 12 a.m. EST/9 p.m. PST.
