Killgrave Fan Film Star Launches "Meanwhile" Webseries To Hook Casual Fans on Comics

Nathan Faudree, who starred in the recent Killgrave fan film about The Purple Man, today launched Meanwhile, a webseries dedicated to turning comic book movie and TV fans into comic book fans by catching them up on the basics of comic book characters and concepts.

After the success of Killgrave, Faudree and Watchworks Studios masterminds Chris Steinberger and Megan Piechowicz were encouraged to continue their foray into the comic book medium. Steinberger conceived Meanwhile as a fun regular collaboration on something that three were passionate about and the series developed from there.

"Comic book superheroes are a truly American art form that expands beyond just spandex and punching people, to being able to examine many of the issues that we face in the modern day.", says Faudree, a long time comic fan, "Plus, they're just a lot of fun!"

You can check out the series' introduction, a segment released last week on busting common comic book myths, and an introduction to Captain America comics, below, followed by the official description from Watchworks.

With the dominance of comic book characters at the movies and on TV and gaming platforms whole new audiences are being exposed to these iconic characters, but with 70+ years of stories, that new audience has not transitioned over to the original source material. The series will be that bridge, essentially serving as a primer to the new reader on good places to start with their favorite new characters. The show will also engage the more seasoned fans by offering behind the scenes interviews with creators and notable geeks to find their first comic book loves.
