Super Manila Comic Con 2024 took place on September 7-8, 2024, at The Space in One Ayala Mall, Makati City.

It was a fun day, and I got to see a lot of komiks fans, which is a rarity at current convention events.  I felt like it was the first time I went to Komikon at UP Bahay Alumni way back in 2006, where all the people were at the event because of komiks!
