COMIC BOOK NOOB WAS ORIGINALLY LAUNCHED IN JANUARY OF 2016 AS PART OF THE ASSEMBLY OF GEEKS NETWORK.
SCOTT MURRAY (A COMIC BOOK NOOB) GOT THE IDEA BACK WHEN GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY WAS COMING OUT. DUE TO HIS LACK OF FAMILIARITY WITH THE CHARACTERS, HE SEARCHED THE INTERNET TO FIND OUT WHAT COMICS HE SHOULD READ BEFORE SEEING THE MOVIE.
THE PROBLEM? THERE WERE SEVERAL DIFFERENT SUGGESTIONS, AND IT WAS PRETTY OVERWHELMING.
HOWEVER, HE ALSO SAW PLENTY OF OTHER PEOPLE ASKING THE SAME QUESTION.
CLEARLY, THERE NEEDED TO BE A PLACE WHERE COMIC BOOK NOOBS COULD GET CHARACTER AND BOOK INFORMATION WITHOUT GETTING OVERWHELMED.
SO, HE DEVELOPED A 30-MINUTE PROGRAM STARRING TWO COMIC BOOK EXPERTS. THE CONCEPT WAS TO SHARE THE BASIC INFORMATION ABOUT A CHARACTER AND THEN CLOSE THE SHOW WITH SPECIFIC READING SUGGESTIONS.
