Valenzuela City Comic Con 2024: My Experience

Image
Last September 27-28, 2024, Valenzuela City hosted its very first comic convention at the Valenzuela City Academic Center for Excellence (ValACE) in Brgy. Malinta. I had the opportunity to attend on the second day, September 28, and it was an eventful experience worth sharing. Though I arrived a bit late due to a hectic week, I got to the venue at around 3:00 PM and immediately headed to the 4th floor where the main event was being held. From there, I proceeded to the 5th floor to check out the Samahang Kartunista ng Pilipinas (SKP) workshop on Character Design and Comic Strip Making. As part of SKP, I helped document the workshop through photos and videos and was also a judge for the comic strip competition. The best entries won Funko Pops, courtesy of Filbars, one of the event’s sponsors. The event was a fantastic opportunity for Valenzuela City to host its first comic convention. It was refreshing to see such a well-organized event outside Metro Manila. The venue was surprisingly s

Manila International Book Fair 2024 - My Experience

Welcome to my blog! Today, I’m going to share my experience at the recently concluded Manila International Book Fair 2024, held at SMX Manila. I attended on Days 1, 2, and 4. Day 1 was Wednesday. I planned to go during the weekdays because, based on previous experiences, the crowd is lighter, making it easier to move around the venue . MIBF 2024 was spread across two floors: the first floor featured books, while the second floor focused on children’s books and the comics section. Unfortunately, I didn’t explore the first floor as I was primarily interested in the comics section. I arrived around 1 PM and had the opportunity to interview Ezjae Zemana, a comics creator also known as "Panitikanerd." I also caught up with friends who were present at the event. Among the exhibitors, I saw Komikon, Komiket, Avenida, Kawangis Publishing, Comic Odyssey, Sinegang, Manix, and more. On Day 2, I interviewed Sampay, and we discussed his creative process and upcoming projects. I also con

Super Manila 2024 - My Experience

Super Manila Comic Con 2024 took place on September 7-8, 2024, at The Space in One Ayala Mall, Makati City. With tickets priced at P500, my partner and I decided to arrive around 4 p.m., which turned out to be a good choice since the event was packed earlier in the day. We had a great time exploring the convention, taking photos and videos, and catching up with friends from the local komiks scene. One of the event highlights was Toto Madayag’s card game demonstration—he’s the creator of Libreng Komiks. Kudos to Comic Odyssey and all the organizers of Super Manila Comic Con 2024 for pulling off such a successful event. It was a fantastic celebration of komiks and pop culture, and we're looking forward to the next one! More photos HERE .
