For those that might find the annual ComicCon too crowded, a small community of collectors is building together a fan-centric event that hopes to drive discussion and shed light on the creator community. 

Helmed by The Revolver Club, the Indian Comics Festival will debut in October this year. “Comic culture has been prevalent in India for almost 50 years now. But it has never been addressed. They have never come together as an Indian platform with a focus on Indian content,” shares Manu Trivedi, co-owner of The Revolver Club. The festival seeks to bring together fans and creators for face-to-face conversations, workshops and interactive events.
