Assassination Entertainment

Post by IMJ »

Hi all,

It's been a while since I posted on these great boards (Advanced Iron and other Ironman stuff as well as work and school has been overwhelmingly busy). I figured this is one of the first and best place to talk about whats going on with John Taddeo's Zoom Suit Project.

In the recent weeks I've received some great, great promotional stuff regarding this project. Everything looks to be really well thought out and fun for Zoom Suit! Even the envelopes they are sending the promotional materials in could be collectors items!! I'm completely impressed with this and can't wait for this project to get fully underway.

For those of you (like me) that registered for your super limited, autographed, numbered AND FREE card set, it looks like pretty soon you'll be getting another card in the mail that can be mailed in for a great Zoom Suit 16 Page Preview!!

I think soon I might try to work on a Zoom Suit dedicated article for Advanced Iron (the worlds greatest Ironman magazine, totally free, and available online for free download)! If you aren't on board with this project yet, get on because everything from the envelopes, to the art printed on the letters, down to the amazing card set so far has been amazing and truly screams authentic comic book fun!!

If Assassination Comics develope a good core following, I'm really sensing a Valiant Comics like rise to stardom here... especially amidst the glut of reliable material from the "big two" lately...

This is gonna be great!!

I recently got some promotional material from these guys and let me tell you, whoa, this is some cool stuff....

I hope all of you have seen the DVD animated short which kind of defines the comic... it's just awesome, total liquid television stuff here!

It's amazing that this board isn't totally abuzz with Taddeo's new universe!! I was just as shocked that this board wasn't going on about Future Comics when that was starting up because those were incredible too (I remember suggesting some of those to some of you guys a while back). Well, anyway, for those of you that are able, you should go check out http://www.superverse.com/

I'm seriously telling you, look at the creators here and the concepts, and tell me that the attitude AND way of giving promotional items away is not a tip of the hat to the Valiant heyday.....

With 2 notable exceptions (yourself being one now) I've heard very little about Assasinaiton's stuff for awhile now.

I'd like to know more . . .

Go there and read COED DORM, you'll laugh your *SQUEE* off. The rest of the stuff looks pretty good and Zoom Suit is great. This is a very encompassing website, actually for one that's not fan made!!

I'm definately buying Zoom Suit when it comes out. You can download the Zoom Suit Animated short too..

Ya gotta give Taddeo credit where credit is due. The man is a promotional machine when it comes to Zoom Suit. I hope it pays off for him.

I'm not big on the "Assassination" name, but I'm looking forward to seeing what else they do in the future.

Hey john,

I think I may have mentioned this in an email before, but have you guys sent out a Zoom Suit DVD to Bagged & Boarded? They're a retailer in the Philly area that has a plasma screen TV in it. Maybe you can get them to play the short on it.
