« The chance to reach the vast network of MySpace Comic Books readers presented us with such a great opportunity, to not just promote Criminal, but to peel back the curtain a bit in a sort of DVD extras kind of way, which is something I think a lot of people will enjoy, » said Brubaker. « The fact that Bill Hader was willing to help us do this was completely overwhelming, too, and is something that I think will make an even more memorable event. »
