About the Project
The concept for COMICSTAN arose from the desire to create a high-quality, print publication dedicated exclusively to celebrating comic artists and their creative worlds. Unlike general entertainment news, this magazine aims to provide in-depth analysis, behind-the-scenes stories, and cultural appreciation for both classic masterpieces (Garfield, Peanuts, Superman) and contemporary creators. The goal was to give the artistry of the comic world a sophisticated editorial platform.
The Challenge
The main challenge was creating a flexible design system that could support both long-form text and large comic panels while keeping a unified visual identity. The design needed to balance nostalgic comic-playfulness with professional journalistic clarity and strong typographic structure.
The Solution
COMICSTAN showcases advanced magazine design, combining a disciplined grid system with visually dynamic editorial choices. It delivers a professional, engaging product that appeals to both design enthusiasts and comic lovers, demonstrating how systematic, hierarchical thinking can solve complex design challenges.
