“Here at NRM, we are beyond ecstatic to be partnering with our hometown convention. We’re yearly attendees ourselves and truly feel that Motor City Comic Con deserves to be recognized on the same level as the national comic conventions,” says, Ian Bensman, CEO of NRM. “Our hope, is that by ringing in Motor City Comic Con’s 30th anniversary with its first ever live streaming stage, that people all over will be able to see the incredible things we and all the other attendees see and experience year in and year out.”
A new streaming platform created in Metro Detroit, NRMstreamcast.com has a veritable array of content in genres ranging from Business to Arts & Entertainment.

We geek out daily on all things Marvel, DC, Pop culture, TV, and Film.
