LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Evolve Media Corp.’s CraveOnline (http://www.craveonline.com), one of the fastest growing next-generation male lifestyle sites, announced today the upcoming launch of Comic-ize CraveOnline, sponsored by the top Movies On Demand on Cable distributor, iN DEMAND. The takeover, which runs on the opening day of Comic-Con on July 12, features the entire CraveOnline page made over into a comic book, complete with the traditional comic book animation and sketching.
When users arrive at the Crave homepage for the latest Comic-Con news, they will find that every element—from the flash panel, to the “Follow us on Facebook” unit, to even the Crave Poll—has been completely “comic-ized.” The look and feel of this never-before-executed homepage metamorphosis, which aligns with the Comic-Con kick-off, will be centered around Movies On Demand on Cable’s arsenal of comic book and super hero movies that allow users to “beam the ultimate comic book experience home!” There will be no shortage of information on this year’s Comic-Con either, as Crave is providing a handful of articles, including a “Survival Guide to Comic-Con” and “Can’t Miss Panels of Comic-Con.”
“We’re thrilled that Movies On Demand distributor iN DEMAND has partnered with CraveOnline to debut this truly innovative and timely online experience,” said John Keefer, General Manager of CraveOnline and Vice President of Evolve Media Corp. “As seen with iN DEMAND’s Comic-ize CraveOnline sponsorship, we pride ourselves on offering marketers all new ideas, concepts, and programs that speak directly to their demographic.”
