Comics Pitching Forum

in partnership with COMICON

 

MIA is pleased to launch a new opportunity for the meeting between pop culture, editorial projects and the audiovisual market, presenting some of the most important Italian and international comics and graphic novel projects, selected in collaboration with the COMICON festival, and seeking production and/or financial support.

 

Based on works already published in different countries, the pitches will be presented by successful Italian and international authors/artists and directors and will offer a wide range of stories, genres and settings, from romantic drama to grounded sci-fi. An opportunity to explore new directions from the segment with the highest growth rate in the book industry in recent years.
