There’s no more appropriate place and time to unveil the trailer for a web series that’s about going to fan conventions than when the San Diego Comic-Con is happening.

So, Alan Tudyk has released the trailer for his amazingly crowdfunded web series Con Man that follows the life of a once great sci-fi TV star and the fan convention circuit that he travels around in years after the show was cancelled.

From the looks of it, we’re thinking this could be The Comeback for the nerd world.

You can pre-order it now before its release of Vimeo on Demand on Sept. 30th.

$3.156 million and $4.42. million to be more precise.

As of yesterday, the Indiegogo campaign for the Super Troopers sequel finished with $4.42 million raised. That’s more than double than what they were initially going for.

In fact, going by how fast they raised the initial amount, they had made stretch goals that went all the way up to if $10 million were raised. They just stopped short of the $4.5 million goal of having live bears in the movie.

Earlier in the month, Alan Tudyk and Nathan Fillion’s Con Man series raised an also very impressive $3.156 million after also racing to $2 million in record time.

Though it’s not the start of big projects raising millions via crowdfunding, this is certainly going to encourage way more of it.

Anyone think that the TV network executives of America would put any money behind a series that follows a former star of a sci-fi show in the great and bizarre world of fan conventions even with actual sci-fi stars Nathan Fillion and Alan Tudyk attached?

Well, the people of the Internet certainly is putting money down on that idea for Con Man.

All Tudyk and Fillion were looking for was $425K, which isn’t a modest amount when it comes to crowdfunding, but it’s probably a modest budget for they wanted to do. Little did they know that only a few days into their campaign that they would more than quadruple their goal with the money raised.

As of this post, their Indiegogo campaign is at $1,827,086 and they have almost entire month to go before the campaign closes on Apr. 10th.

Now, we all have to wonder how much more they’ll get to do with the extra dough.

Also, in case you’re wondering, you should donate to this because this series sounds like it could be pretty great.
