Case Study: ComixVN Magazine

ComixVN Magazine is a non-profit, monthly digital magazine focused on Western comic culture, which ran for six issues and received ~2,000 downloads for each issue. The magazine focused on reporting comics-related news, reviewing products, and introducing up-and-coming local comic artists. As the Executive Editor, I oversaw the magazine’s contents and production.

In 2013, I presented this project in an interview with INTO University Partnership and received a scholarship to study at INTO Marshall.

Shoutout: I’d hate if anyone came across this entry and thought that I was the sole person responsible for this magazine, so I would like to send a few shoutouts to the core members of the team. Thank you Anh Quan Nguyen for encouraging me to turn this idea into reality, anh Hoang Ha for drawing most of the covers for the magazine, anh Mai Hoang for improve the magazine layout, Ly Le and Huy Bui for always deliver designs that match the vision in my head. And finally, thanks to the ComixVN community for always support our efforts through out this journey.
