IKOS: Summer Komikon 2013

Summer Komikon really keeps getting better and hotter. We believe this year’s Komikon really inspired a new generation of comics enthusiasts, hobbyists, geeks and comics creators.

Summer Komikon 2013 by Jon Zamar

We (IKOS) came early to set-up and be the early bird buyers and made sure to get a copy of some of the comics that we really like. We were so early! There weren't any lines yet, there wasn't any crowd… yet.

Maybe a bit too early; some of the exhibitors have not yet set up their booths or tables yet. Some of the artists/groups that we were looking for were not yet there. No worries, the geek part of us will always be hungry for more comics.

We also had a blast as Indie Tiangge participants. We had a bigger selling space and tables, very friendly co-paticipants (especially katabi naming sina Andoyman at Dayo Comics), and a lot of new titles to buy from our favorite Indie Artists. Another great part of the event for us is the last minute sold out for some of IKOS’s titles.

Thank very much for your support guys!

We also met a lot of new artists and readers, and made a lot of new friends. The SULSI gang sure is happy that a lot of kids and kids-at-heart bought a copy.

We are very thankful for the added security and we felt safer.

Though they look a bit like bouncers (para kaming nasa rock concert! Joke!)
