Source-derived summary

Indonesia Comic Con (abbreviated as ICC, simplified as Indo Comic Con) is an annual comic-based multigenre convention in Jakarta, Indonesia, established in 2015. It is organized by Panorama Media (formerly Reed Panorama Exhibitions), the subsidiary of Panorama Sentrawisata, an Indonesian tourism service provider company. ICC emphasizes the five pillars of pop culture, namely comics, toys, movies, video games, and lifestyles. It has featured numbers of notable international actors and actresses, as well as comic artists, DJs, VTubers, and professional cosplayers.

ICC is the intermediary for Jakartans to express their interest and love in pop culture with full of passion. It is made to support and gather all creative industry players—from comic and anime artists, movie fans, gamers and e-sport players, and also music lovers—in one convention. Despite being a multi-genre convention, ICC is more focused on western pop culture, as it has already launched a spin-off event named Indonesia Anime Con, a separated anime and manga convention in 2024.

Overview

Indonesia Comic Con debuted on 14 November 2015, held annually in October or November. Until 2025, ICC was held at the Jakarta International Convention Center (JICC) in the Gelora Bung Karno Sports Complex, Central Jakarta. JICC's exhibition halls A and B has had hosted the event from the first until the supplementary event subtitled "Pop Asia" in June 2023.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “comic-based convention” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 18, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q48730654. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2015, 2024, 2025 and 2023.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it
