This year’s run of Stripolis will complete with the second edition of the first single-day comic strip festival in Slovenia. On Saturday 21 June, ninth art will be celebrated with events held in front of and inside Kino Šiška from noon till late in the evening. In the daytime, stalls of Slovenian publishers will offer the entire domestic production of comic strips, there will also be a mini comic strip bazaar featuring second-hand editions of old classics, and a series of open-air presentations of the latest publications by the likes of Miha Hančič, Marko Kociper, Tanja Komadina, Martin Ramoveš and Iztok Sitar. The event will come to a climax in the evening, when an interview will be staged with the major Croatian comic strip artist Igor Kordej, once the prince of Yugoslav comic strip new wave, now officially proclaimed the most prolific comic book artist in the world and crowned the French Knight of the Order of Arts. The final act of the festival will be a gig by Martin Ramoveš Band performing the author’s latest comic strip album which was also released as a music album.
