We love independent comics.

The local comic culture in Australia is vibrant and diverse, with lots to explore and celebrate. That’s why Indie Comic Con puts comics back to the forefront of a comic-con with its spotlight on indie Australian creators. Our mission is to provide a platform for comic creators to share their stories, educate the public about the medium of sequential art, and inspire others to take up the pen, brush, keyboard and stylus.

As an independent creator, sometimes it can be difficult to connect with audiences. Indie Comic Con began when two local Melbourne creators were passed over for a spot in the artist's alley of a major comic convention in their own city. Not for lack of great comics, but because space was dedicated to fan art and pop culture merchandise. Recognising that opportunities for local and independent comic creators were limited in Australia, one comic artist decided to take matters into their own hands...Indie Comic Con was born! 2017 saw the first ever Indie Comic Con featuring 40 independent creators exhibiting at the Northcote Town Hall. The inaugural event was a great success and we look forward to future editions and a bright future for independent comics.
