History

Held since the 1990s, Cartoomics is curated by Filippo Mazzarella, an Italian film and entertainment critic with expertise in videogames. The Milanese event has become one of its kind in northern Italy and the second biggest comics event on a national scale after the comic books and gaming convention in Lucca, Tuscany.

While it had started as a comics fair, Cartoomics has been expanded to include games and videogames culture, home video, and films. Cosplay, science-fiction, and fantasy themes have also been introduced to the entertainment program. There is a big cosplay contest for the best costume, and many attendees show up dressed as their favorite characters. Cartoomics is a great platform where industry professionals can interact with fans and exchange ideas.
