Kapow Comic Con’s Stan Lee Awards to Be Broadcast Online

In an interview with Newsarama, Mark Millar has revealed that the 1st Annual Stan Lee Awards, to be held art Kapow Comic Con on April 10th, will feature celebrity presenters and will be broadcast live online.

“It’s actually going to literally be a show” says Millar, “The 90-minute ceremony is going to be broadcast online, which is pretty cool. We want it to be as cool as a television award ceremony, so there’s going to be big-name presenters. Just like the Golden Globes or the Oscars or whatever, we’re trying to do our industry’s equivalent.”

About the online broadcast, he said “The digital stream side of it is actually very complex, and it’s very expensive to do, but we have really good media partners who are taking care of that for us. Ten thousand people will there be in London, but it could be watched by hundreds of thousands online.”

He went on to say that “We’ve got some pretty big people that are tying in with us for this event, and so we want this to go really, really wide. It’s going to have massive European visibility, as well as American. We want to make a lot of waves with this.”
