RockLove Jewelry

10/15/2018

0 Comments

 
Afronauts has returned from New York Comic Con (NYCC) and we're ready to share the highlights and best of NYCC. One of the best companies and experiences we had was by the company: RockLove Jewelry. We posted an instant video of it on our YouTube from NYCC and hopefully you have watched it by now. The creator, Allison Cimino gave us a wonderful tour of her booth and great insight on her journey and jewelry.
Allison is very passionate in her work from the designing, in which you can see in the fine details of her jewelry, to the cause of making jewelry wearable for all ages and skin types.

RockLove Jewelry is a regular at NYCC, but this year they had their biggest booth yet! Decked out in a posh goth decor, they drew in attendees with their Disney collabs and friendly, knowledgeable staff! Their Disney jewelry ranges from the Villains of the Princess line to the superheroes of Marvel!

RockLove Jewelry Black Panther Line
Afronauts purchased these replica Kimoyo beads from the Black Panther movie for some very lucky children. You can shop the whole Black Panther jewelry collection here. Allison was able to work closely with the movie set design to create accurate replicas of the bracelets.

RockLove Jewelry 30th Anniversary Totoro Line
RockLove debuted their 30th Anniversary Totoro jewelry! Yes, they even had something for Anime lovers!
Picture
RockLove also debuted their Nightmare Before Christmas jewelry at the con, which you can now buy online, but attendees got first dibs and bragging rights!

We definitely were impressed by Allison and her work! Her dedication shows and her efforts to bring forth fashionable-fan jewelry is already proving to be successful! Allison herself hinted in our video (yes, you should watch it all the way through!) that her jewelry  planning goes through 2020! Look out for upcoming Disney collabs for the 2019 live action Aladdin and we're guessing Maleficent jewelry will be released sometime in 2020 when the sequel to the 2014 live action move is released! She also mentioned something special for Valentine's Day with Mickey and Minnie, so hopefully we will see that in 2019!

Afronauts is happy to share with you a first look at a new comic series called "Jook Joint" courtesy of Image Comics.
Picture
It is described as "American Horror Story" meets "Law & Order SVU". Straight from the publisher: JOOK JOINT drops readers in the Deep South and introduces Mahalia, who runs the hottest spot in all of 1950s New Orleans—The Jook Joint. Here she keeps the jazz popping, people bopping… and the women? The women are to die for. There’s only one rule: “Keep your hands to yourself.” But some men think rules don’t apply to them, and Mahalia and her coven of slain women enjoy reminding them that they most certainly do......

The series is brought to us by the talents of: Tee Franklin and Alitha E. Martinez and will be released Wednesday, October 3 right in time for NYCC. If you're in the area, stop by Midtown Comics for an autograph from Tee Franklin on Wednesday from 8pm-10pm EST.
