UNIVERSAL CITY, Calif. - June 16, 2014 - NBC's "Last Comic Standing" is kicking off a "Comic Comeback" online competition on June 19 that will give fans of the popular series a chance to give their favorite eliminated comic a second chance to appear on the show. "Last Comic Standing," starring Roseanne Barr, Keenen Ivory Wayans and Russell Peters as judges and JB Smoove as host, airs Thursdays at 10 p.m. ET on NBC.

After the second semi-final round airs on June 19, two eliminated contestants - selected by the theater audience at the taping - will kick off a head-to-head standup battle. Fans can watch video of the comics' exclusive online standup routines, vote for their favorite at http://nbc.com/comic-comeback or on Twitter with #ComicComeback - and share their vote with friends.
