Indonesia has always been known as a huge pop culture market, top 5 kpop consumer, top 5 anime watcher, 5% of webtoon MAU, and so forth.
But what about it’s comic industry? In this article, you can find names whose althogether comprising an ideal (at least “to nurture”) the industry. You got an independent comic artist which works will represent Indonesia in Asian Content & Film Market in Busan later this year. You have someone from comic association sharing thoughts (ehm, me). You’ll see a local readers community thriving out of love. You’ll know a non-mainstream comic success with hundreds of thousands copy sold. You’ll see major local publisher trying to balance their numbers with imported manga. And a representative of creative economy ministry covering the government side.
Yet, it’s still a steep hill to climb.
Thanks for Yohana Belinda and Richardson Handjaja for featuring Indonesia.
