The organizers of the Comic Con Igromir festival, which will be held from December 12 to 14 at the Timirazev Center, have started announcing the invited guests. One of them will be comic artist and animator Esad Ribić. Among his works are illustrations for comics such as ‘Loki’, ‘Silver Surfer: Requiem’, ‘Thor: God of Thunder’ and others. The artist's participation is supported by the comic book publisher BUBBLE.

Ribić is originally from Croatia. He was born on November 10, 1972, in Zagreb, where he also completed school. After his studies, he began working at the studio Zagreb Film and also drew comics as a hobby.

In the 1990s, he moved to the United States and got a job at a small publishing house, Antarctic Press, which specialized in manga. This allowed Esad to build up his portfolio and later start collaborating first with DC/Vertigo on the comics ‘The Four Horsemen’ and ‘Strange Adventures’, and in the early 2000s with Marvel Comics.

A major breakthrough in the artist's career was his work on the comic ‘Loki’, which allowed him to join the ‘big league’ of comic artists. After that, he created illustrations for the comics ‘Silver Surfer: Requiem’, ‘All-New X-Men’, ‘Sub-Mariner: Depths’, ‘Aliens vs. Avengers’, ‘Thor: God of Thunder’, and ‘Secret Wars’ of 2015.

During all three days of the festival, fans will have the opportunity to meet Esad Ribić at the ‘Authors' Alley’, take joint photos, receive autographs, and unique sketches. The artist will also appear on stage and answer audience questions.

The ‘Authors' Alley’ at Comic Con Igromir will be the place where popular authors from leading publishing houses, foreign comic artists, and animator artists will gather. The curator of the venue is BUBBLE — the largest Russian publisher of original comics.
