Empire of Corpses Select Release

Empire of Corpses

Project Itoh’s The Empire of Corpses will be getting a limited release in select theaters in North America.  FUNimation will be the distributor and has scheduled April 19 and 20 for these releases, however, no theaters have been named for the release yet.  If you are in a larger metropolitan you might ask around your area and I am sure the closer it gets to the release date FUNimation will have places listed on their website.  At least I would hope so, so fans can attend.  Here is the teaser trailer that FUNimation’s YouTube channel has put out for Empire of Corpses:

Kill J gives us “Coda”

museKill J

Kill J is making her mark at SXSW and here with ComicPop Library.  She is sharing with our listeners her unique single “Coda” from her Quasi EP.  To me I put “Coda” in the Electronic/Pop category with some Experimental tinges thrown in for good measure.  Love the cover to her EP that is pictured above, it definitely fits with our style.  “Coda” has a strong beat with Kill J’s strong voice to support the lyrics.  It all fits together into a piece that has gotten me hooked.  I look forward to listening to the rest of her EP.  Enjoy “Coda” from Kill J’s EP Quasi through SoundCloud – Richard:

Rosie Carney’s Music Video for “Better Man”

muserosie carney

Rosie Carney delivers our listeners another soulful song with “Better Man”.  Rosie takes a contemplative tone to this single by slowing it down and being purposeful in her diction with her lyrics.  The video is well crafted and takes the viewer on a journey that makes you stop and slow down for a while.  Many thanks to Rosie Carney for sharing the music video for “Better Man” through her YouTube channel – Richard:

Ep 42 ComicPop Visits with Rhonda Rees about Book Piracy, Pt 2

Join the ComicPop Crew in our second part of our visit with Rhonda Rees of Rhonda Rees PR.  Rhonda is the author of Profit and Prosper with Public Relations: Insider Secrets to Make You a Success, which was pirated.  With her recent accolades: Publicist of the Year from the Book Publicists of Southern California; an IRWIN Award (Industry Recognition of Writers in the News); and most recently Rhonda has been the recipient of the Publicist of the Year Award from the Bulldog Reporter, she has set about to educate the industry on the real threat of book piracy that exists not only for the big press, but for the small press as well.

Thank you again to Rhonda for visiting with us.  It was a pleasure and we look forward to visiting with her again.  We have her title, Profit and Prosper with Public Relations: Insider Secrets to Make You a Success, that she is graciously allowing us to read and then get back with her to visit specifically about her book and the Public Relations field.
