DJ Coffman Wins The Comic Book Challenge

Posted by Scott on July 24th, 2006

As reported by.. well everyone DJ Coffman of the Comic Yirmumah has won The Comic Book Challenge sponsored by Platinum Studios and the local NBC station in San Diego.

“I think I saw the press release on THE PULSE,” Coffman said of the contest. “I entered on a whim. I had the superhero idea for Hero By Night in the back of my head and figured that might be what they were looking for. I didn’t think I’d get picked. I found out I was a finalist last Wednesday night and had seven days to get out to the San Diego Comic-Con. I spent all my savings to get out to San Diego Comic-Con.”

JENNIFER M. CONTINO at Comicon.com has a nice write up.

DJ’s reaction can be found HERE.
