With Keith’s documentary Talking Classics on hiatus, Keith Apicary needs to blow off some steam. And sweat! Keith puts on the most high energy, insane chip tunes show to ever live. That makes sense right? GO!
Still positively giddy at the news that The Nerdist Channel is going to be airing The Kids in the Hall with brand new discussions with the group? We here at Meltdown are also getting in the “paying respect to our favorite sketch group from the Great White North” game with an art show curated by NerdMelt’s own Danielle N. Kramer! Just looking at the poster makes us wistful for waking up early, turning on Comedy Central and bobbing along to that iconic theme song…
Saturday, April 21st – 7-10pm
Kids In the Hall | Kids On the Wall
An art show inspired by the brilliant work of the groundbreaking sketch comedy troupe The Kids In the Hall that takes you to a world of undersexed chicken-ladies, misogynist cabbage heads, and merciless head-crushers captured by artists in paint, pen and ink.
Join us for the Opening Party April 21st, 7-10pm

Bubble Punch is revamping the Super*Market event at Meltdown Comics, gathering all of the most awesome nerd gear in So Cal to create a metropolis of kickass shopping in one place.
Super*Market was originally the brainchild of Jessica Gao, who created super*MARKET as a vending fair for comics and the arts at UCLA, then moved to Meltdown for a very successful run. Jessica says, ”I couldn’t be happier to see the triumphant return of super*MARKET. It was an event that has always been dear to my heart and to have it in the capable hands of Bubble Punch is ultra-cute icing on the cake.”
Along with hunting for awesome swag, guests can also party down with live entertainment, refreshments, and a chance to mix and mingle with other colorful and fun patrons.
Super*Market vendors will specialize in the bright, geeky, girly, and super unique. Jewelry designers, unique clothing designers, and even second hand clothing from Japan will all be sold for the first time in one place at this fashionably nerdy event.
Entertainment during the event will be provided by the DJ team at Tune In Tokyo, along with a live podcast from the lady nerds at Defective Geeks, event snaps, and much more!
Complimentary drinks will also be provided for shoppers to help them party the day away!
Admission to this event is FREE!
Just some of the amazing vendors you will see at Super*Market:
Geeky Glamorous
Locketship
Messy Pink
Lemon Tree 11

Avengers and streetwear fanatics assemble! To kick off the fisticuffs and festivities for Marvel’s universe-shaking crossover event Avengers vs. X-Men, Marvel has teamed up with sultans of streetwear New Era to produce limited edition caps. Midtown Comics in New York City will have 18 East Coast Avengers caps and our very own Meltdown Comics in Los Angeles will have 18 West Coast Avengers caps in a classic Dodger blue colorway. With only 36 hats in existence – 18 of each colorway – these are the fashion equivalent of Infinity Gems. Luckily, we were able to snag a sneak peek at the hero-worthy headwear before they go on sale this Tuesday at 8PM at Meltdown’s Avengers VS X-Men launch event with special guest Ed Brubaker. You can believe us when we say that these will fetch a pretty penny, True Believers, and are a must-have for any Marvel diehard.
On Tuesday, April 3rd, Marvel will be releasing the first issue of their epic crossover, Avengers Vs. X-Men. Meltdown Comics will celebrate the release with an event featuring writer Ed Brubaker.
