About Comics International

Comics International was launched in April 1990 to fill a need for a trade magazine for the US and UK comics industry. From its 48-page 4,000 copy launch, it has expanded to as large as 160 pages with many pages in full colour and a circulation in excess of 24,000.

Read internationally by fans, collectors, publishers and creators, it is THE independent guide to the world of English-language comics, from the Beano to Batman, X-Files to X-Men.

Comics International can be seen through its display area at the world's leading festivals including San Diego (USA), Angouleme (France), Memorabilia (UK) and Lucca (Italy).
