KOMIKON PHILIPPINES

What is KOMIKON?

KOMIKON 2005 organized by the ArtistsDen was the 1st Philippine Komiks Convention. Our group aims to bring together different comic book artists/groups and publishers in a venue where they could present their talents, works and services to the public and, most importantly, to aspiring comic artists. We would like to bring in different art groups and different generations of artists for a free exchange of ideas, break down stereotypes, and broaden the scope of comics – from international to local, sequential to strips, professional to amateur, and published to independent comics. We would also like to bring to people’s awareness the current state of the Philippine comics industry.

For inquiries you may reach Ariel, Syeri, Jon, Lyndon, Lei or Patrick at komikon[@]gmail.com.

This November 22, 2008 at the UP Bahay ng Alumni, ArtistsDen brings you the Fourth Filipino Komiks Convention, with the following highlights: Anniversary and book launch of Samahang Kartunista ng Pilipinas (SKP); Culture Crash Comics reunion; and our Featured Artist for the year, Gerry Alanguilan. There would also be comic book launches, indie comics tiangge, contests, exhibits, and many more. For more contest details, visit the KOMIKON 2008 Sitemap or watch us at Komikon DeviantArt.
