If you are a lover of comics, a comics artist, do comics for fun (like most webcomic artists do), or is a comics activist, then come on over for a good time. Currently the Pekomik market is open only to members, but if your doujin group is really wants a booth, then I suggest coming to the final miniKON commitee meeting and talk it out with the organisers.
