Superhero Short Dark Specter 2 to be Featured at San Diego Comic-Con

Comic-Con International Independent Film Festival features Dark Specter 2 on Saturday, July 20th.

Los Angeles, CA, June 24, 2019 --(PR.com)-- It has been an incredible journey so far for the Dark
Specter team. After racking up a slew of awards over the last year including four “Best Short Film” wins,
Dark Specter 2 will be featured at Comic-Con International Independent Film Festival in San Diego this
July. The superhero short has been gaining praise for its unique take on the genre, combining action,
comedy, and an original storyline.

The Dark Specter is an unlikely supervillain. Though he can throw fire from his arms, he's not all
powerful or accomplished. In fact, he's unknown. A supervillain wannabe if you will. Mixing action with
comedy, the story takes an interesting turn when we are shown the Dark Specter's relationship with his
mother. Nagging, but well-meaning, she is clearly suffering from the early stages of dementia. The Dark
Specter is torn between his rise to infamy and caring for his loved one. Ah, the challenges of balancing
the pursuit of dreams with reality.

Dark Specter 2 has already caught the attention of many. Indie Shorts Magazine called it “a brilliant take
on the superhero genre, subverting the paradigm, well supported by a stellar cast and incredible writing.”
At the Mindfield Film Festival in Albuquerque, they took home “Best Short Film,” “Best Actor” for
Bruce Nachsin who plays the Dark Specter, and “Best Director” for Richard Tatum all in one day. You

In May, Dark Specter 2 was released publicly on Facebook and was met with an overwhelmingly positive
response. In has garnered over 38K views and it is still on the rise. You can see the full film here:

So where is all of this heading? Well, the goal is to turn Dark Specter into a full-length series and the
team has been hard at work trying to make that happen. "It is an honor and a dream fulfilled to be
featured as part of the Comic-Con Film Festival. I can't wait to be there with all you people who are fans
of superhero fun. I hope to meet you and entertain you," says Bruce Nachsin creator of Dark Specter.

Dark Specter 2 is scheduled to be shown at Comic-Con International Independent Film Festival in San
Diego on Saturday, July 20th. Dark Specter 2 will be part of the “Comics-Oriented” block which starts at
11:00 AM. The Dark Specter team will be available to meet with fans and filmmakers who are interested
in discussing the film. A short panel discussion will take place following the showing.
