What is 24-HOUR COMICS DAY?

Featured

24-Hour Comics Day is an annual international celebration of comics creation. On this day, creative folks take on the 24 Hour Comic Challenge to create a 24 page comic book story, normally months worth of work, in 24 straight hours.

Creators gather at participating venues including comic book stores, schools, libraries, and community centers. Others take part in private gatherings. Some participate online. Many work on their own.

Every year since 2004 this event has taken place. The thousands of participants who have created tens of thousands of pages of original art have included the young and the old, people with decades of professional comics creation experience and those who have never tried to draw a panel before, at locations on at least five continents.

The event date for 2024 is SATURDAY, OCTOBER 5TH.
