The International Comics Festival in Stockholm was once again full of guests from all over the world, presenting their unique work. Visitors also looked forward to new, young authors who brought a fresh breeze to comic creation. The festival offered a diverse program, where every visitor found their place. A traditional comic market was part of the festival, where visitors were able to view and purchase comics directly from authors, publishers, or cartoonists.
