Espresso Comics Magazine

Espresso is a weekly comics magazine that features one-shot comic stories, as well as an ongoing comic series, by Filipino Comic Creators. Espresso will be distributed for FREE at the stations of the Light Rail Transit (LRT) Lines 1 and 2. Our first issue is scheduled to be out on June 7, 2010. Our circulation is 50,000 copies per week.

• 600,000 Commuters – There are 600,000 commuters that take the train daily.*

• More People Read Comics – Surveys show that 40% of the Filipino population read comics, as against the less than 1% who read the newspaper.*

• More ‘Pasa’ – Comics pass hands a higher number of times than newspapers or tabloids.

• Comic Series – We’ll be running a fun and entertaining comic series, which means, every week, people will keep coming back for more!

• Key Placement of Ads – Espresso doesn’t just stuff all the ads at the end of the magazine. We place them in key points throughout the comics to ensure the readability of our advertisers.

You’re probably thinking, “Free comics magazine with a circulation of 50,000 copies a week… Expensive, no doubt.” Well, allow us to say this: Thirty Centavos. Thirty centavos per copy! That’s all you’re paying for this wonderful ad space. And Php0.30 for 50,000 copies is just an affordable Php15,000! And just because it’s cheap doesn’t mean it’s not visible. Your ad will appear right beside the comic. No need to even turn the page! But, wait! There’s more. Get this ad space before May 7, 2010 and we’ll give it to you, not for Php15,000, but for only Php12,000!
