COMICCON: very entertaining fair for comic fans and especially for cosplayers. Mostly exhibitors for merchandise, which unfortunately are very expensive. Manga fans are well served here. Fans of "American" comics (Marvel, DC) have something to watch. Small and larger European publishers (Panini, Splitter) are also there and present themselves at very beautiful stalls. Very cool is the cartoonist area. One can have small, individual sketches or artwork made by talented known and unknown artists. This can be really cheap but also very expensive. But it is a worthwhile investment. To the organizer of the fair, the entrance fees are too high, the autographs and photo sessions are again paid extra and they are also very very expensive (between 30 - 60 ). The exhibitors will be squeezed into one of ten exhibition halls. It gets stuffy with time and you have no room. If points were more individually distributable then so:
Fairgrounds: 5
Organizer: 1
Merchandise: 3
Publishers: 4
Cartoonist: 5+
