Why Delhi Comic Con 2024 was bigger and better-it had live racing on track, international artists like Ryan North and Jason Loo attending, and the Android Live Zone bringing together the world of technology and games. And it still is the the best place to find your tribe.

COMICS, COSPLAY, CRAZINESS

IF you are a comic fan and you are looking for your tribe, Comic Con is your place. Over the years, with creative convergence of storytelling, Comic Con has become a favourite destination for comic book enthusiasts and all those who want to let their hair down once in a while. The recently concluded event at the NSIC Grounds, Okhla, on December 8 attracted thousands of enthusiasts, influencers, comic book lovers and anime fans. The event transformed Delhi into a multiverse hub, featuring cosplay characters such as Batman, Spiderman, Wonder Woman and many more. From cosplay competitions, merchandise sales, gaming tournaments and immersive zones, the comic convention brought the "reel" world into the real one.

This year's event attracted big brands as usual. Sponsors like Maruti Suzuki, Crunchyroll, and Yamaha India made the Delhi Comic Con an unforgettable experience. "This is the first time Yamaha is coming to Delhi Comic Con," a Yamaha official said. "We are giving our visitors a real-life experience of racing on a track. We have samurais clicking pictures. We are also offering the gamers to race on Buddh International Circuit tracks with our MotoGP team."
