The event did not start until 3PM which is geared to the younger audience having Robert Magnuson selling his Kuting Magiting going in second print since it was sold out during Summer Komikon in April was deeply grateful for the support of the first book that it’s about to go on its third print.
Ariel Atienza and Lyndon Gregorio were doing some sketches that anyone can purchase. Rommel “Omeng” Estanislao creator of Bruho Barbero was peddling collectible creations aside from his comic books. There were also trinkets and collectibles sold at “Ang Ilustrador ng Kabataan at Ink” table beside the free Nachos.
Jon Zamar (Code Name: Bathhala), JP Palabon (Puso Negro), and JM Valenzuela (Kanto Komiks) were also present taking photos and just enjoying the free nachos, ice cone, cotton candy and corn dog until supply lasted before the event closing. The afternoon was like a small fiesta with kids having fun watching the videos from the projector featuring some of the local comic books being sold by Visprint among others.
The one day event was greeted by parents and children making the most the last days of summer and the next Komikon won’t happen in August.
