Comics Fest India (previously known as Nagraj Janmotsav) is a comic-based convention held in India, annually at New Delhi. The event began as an annual birthday celebration for Nagraj. But the incereasing number of fans and participants made the event grow larger every year, and soon the event sprang out of the Raj Comics studios (where it started) and was held at Dilli Haat, Pitampura. The event is popular for being the only convention in India that provides free gifts (including T-shirts, comic books and merchandise) to all the registered attendees. Now it is the second annual comic book convention in New Delhi, after Comic Con India. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.cgtantra.com/forums/showthread.php?t=35107 )〕 ==History== In 2008, Raj Comics hosted 3 events namely, ''Gen-Next Writers Workshop'' (January 2008), ''Junoon Mela'' (June 2008), and ''Nagraj Janmotsav'' (4–5 October 2008). Nagraj Janmotsav was the birthday celebration of Raj Comics's flagship character Nagraj. What started as a birthday celebration for their flagship character, soon grew into an annual convention attended by several fans and creators. Raj Comics organized the initial events at Rtoonz Studios (Burari). Each year, the event kept growing both in size and space and in 2012, it was held at Dilli Haat, Pitampura.〔() ''Yahoo'', New Delhi, 5 October 2008〕 In 2013, Raj Comics declared that Nagraj Janmotsav will be celebrated on an even bigger scale and was called ''Comics Fest India''. This new bigger convention showcased stalls by multiple Indian publishing houses, including, but not restricted to, Raj Comics, Tricolor Children Books, Campfire Novels, Holycow Entertainment, Paperclip Books, Rovolt Comics, Fenil Comics and many other publishers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=All Events )〕 These conventions include many contests, interactive sessions, comics launches, workshops and speeches by various novelists, editors, comic book artists and writers. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Comics Fest India」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
