A comic book convention or comic-con is an event with a primary focus on comic books and comic book culture, in which comic book fans gather to meet creators, experts, and each other. Commonly, comic conventions are multi-day events hosted at convention centers, hotels, or college campuses. They feature a wide variety of activities and panels, with a larger number of attendees participating in cosplay than most other types of fan conventions. Comic book conventions are also used as a vehicle for industry, in which publishers, distributors, and retailers represent their comic-related releases. Comic book conventions may be considered derivatives of science-fiction conventions, which began in the late 1930s.

  • A comic book convention or comic-con is an event with a primary focus on comic books and comic book culture, in which comic book fans gather to meet creators, experts, and each other. Commonly, comic conventions are multi-day events hosted at convention centers, hotels, or college campuses. They feature a wide variety of activities and panels, with a larger number of attendees participating in cosplay than most other types of fan conventions. Comic book conventions are also used as a vehicle for industry, in which publishers, distributors, and retailers represent their comic-related releases. Comic book conventions may be considered derivatives of science-fiction conventions, which began in the late 1930s. Comic-cons were traditionally organized by fans on a not-for-profit basis, though nowadays most events catering to fans are run by commercial interests for profit. Many conventions have award presentations relating to comics (such as the Eisner Awards, which have been presented at San Diego Comic-Con International since 1988; or the Harvey Awards, which have been presented at a variety of venues also since 1988). At commercial events, comic book creators often give out autographs to the fans, sometimes in exchange for a flat appearance fee, and sometimes may draw illustrations for a per-item fee. Commercial conventions are usually quite expensive and are hosted in hotels. This represents a change in comic book conventions, which traditionally were more oriented toward comic books as a mode of literature, and maintained a less caste-like differentiation between professional and fan. The first official comic book convention was held in 1964 in New York City and was called New York Comicon. Early conventions were small affairs, usually organized by local enthusiasts (such as Jerry Bails, later known as the "Father of Comic Fandom", and Dave Kaler of the Academy of Comic-Book Fans and Collectors), and featuring a handful of industry guests. The first recurring conventions were the Detroit Triple Fan Fair, which ran from 1965–1978, and Academy Con, which ran from 1965–1967. Many recurring conventions begin as single-day events in small venues, which as they grow more popular expand to two days, or even three or more every year. Many comic-cons which had their start in church basements or union halls now fill convention centers in major cities. Nowadays, comic conventions are big business, with recurring shows in every major American city. Comic book conventions in name only, the biggest shows include a large range of pop culture and entertainment elements across virtually all genres, including horror, animation, anime, manga, toys, collectible card games, video games, webcomics, and fantasy novels. San Diego Comic-Con International, a multigenre entertainment and comic convention held annually in San Diego since 1970, is the standard bearer for U.S. comic-cons. According to Forbes, the convention is the "largest convention of its kind in the world;" and is also the largest convention held in San Diego. According to the San Diego Convention and Visitor's Bureau, the convention has an annual regional economic impact of $162.8 million, with a $180 million economic impact in 2011. However, in 2017, SDCC lost its record of the largest annual multigenre convention to São Paulo's Comic Con Experience (first held in 2014). Internationally, the world's largest comic book convention, in terms of attendees, is Japan's Comiket (first held in 1975), which boasts annual attendance of over half a million people. Italy's Lucca Comics & Games (first held in 1965) and France's Angoulême International Comics Festival (first staged in 1974) are the world's second and third largest comic festivals, respectively.

  • Los eventos de cómic son eventos donde se reúnen autores, editores o lectores de historietas, para favorecer su difusión o venta. Abarcan certámenes, entregas de premios, festivales, jornadas, muestras, salones, etc. Para la teórica Francisca Lladó: Este tipo de manifestaciones permiten el acercamiento entre lectores, dibujantes, agentes editoriales y críticos, adoptando planteamientos de feed-back desde el momento en que permiten a las partes interesadas una mayor toma de conciencia de la problemática del cómic y de las exigencias del público en un momento dado.​ (es)
  • Un festival de bande dessinée est un événement consacré à la bande dessinée. Sur un ou plusieurs jours, le festival peut être le lieu d'expositions thématiques sur la bande dessinée, de rencontres entre le public et les auteurs, souvent sous la forme de séances de dédicaces et de rencontres avec les libraires et éditeurs. C'est généralement l'occasion pour les libraires et les fanzineux de réaliser une part non négligeable de leur chiffre d'affaires. Créé en 1974, le festival français le plus connu est le Festival international de la bande dessinée d'Angoulême (FIBD) qui se déroule généralement fin janvier annuellement. (fr)
  • Una fiera del fumetto (o comicon, abbreviazione dall'inglese comic convention) è un evento che si concentra principalmente sui fumetti in cui gli appassionati si riuniscono per incontrare fumettisti, esperti e venditori. In genere è un evento che dura qualche giorno, ospitato in centro congressi o altro. Vengono anche usate come mezzo per gli editori, distributori e rivenditori per promuovere e vendere i loro prodotti, dalla stampa al merchandising. Vennero inizialmente organizzate dagli appassionati di fumetti senza scopo di lucro sebbene successivamente incominciarono a essere organizzati per fini commerciali per sfruttare il successo del medium. In alcune di esse si incominciarono ad assegnare premi, come ad esempio lo Eisner Awards che viene conferito alla San Diego Comic-Con International dal 1988 o anche lo Yellow Kid assegnato dal Salone Internazionale dei Comics. Gli autori di fumetti vengono invitati a partecipare per incontri col pubblico nei quali presentano le loro opere e firmano autografi o realizzano disegni da distribuire ai fan. (it)
  • Stripdagen of stripfestival is de benaming die gebruikt wordt voor een evenement waarbij het stripverhaal het centrale onderwerp is. Gewoonlijk is er een meerdaagse stripbeurs of markt, een boekenbeurs of markt voor strips. Op zo'n beurs kan men zowel nieuwe strips kopen als tweedehands strips kopen, vaak als verzamelbeurs en/of ruilbeurs. Afhankelijk van zo'n meerdaagse stripbeursprogramma kan men naast boeken kopen en verkopen ook kijken naar bijvoorbeeld een tentoonstelling en voorstellingen, meedoen aan een quiz of veiling en een korte cursus striptekenen. Daarnaast worden er ook terugkerende prijzen uitgereikt. Op de stripdagen zijn ook veel tekenaars aanwezig, men kan er praatje mee maken en handtekeningen vragen, meestal zet men een tekening van stripfiguur van hun hand, al dan niet in een gekochte of al hebbende strip.
