The Comic Bug has a few famous customers including Friday the 13th: Jason Goes to Hell director Adam Marcus, who took the time to put together a trailer video for the event. Wellman talked about how it came to be and where the idea to go Superman with it came from:
Adam Marcus and I were hanging out in the back room chatting about other stuff when Superman The Movie was starting on the tv. I looked over at the credits and we were admiring how awesome that title sequence was. Then my eyeballs went wide and I said "Waitaminute…" and Adam buried his face in his hands saying "oh no…" knowing full on what was coming next! The rest, as they say, is history!
