Pen tablet manufacturer Wacom is participating as an exhibitor at AnimagiC for the second time and will demonstrate at its booth in exhibition area E-25 how manga is created digitally using a pen on a computer. At four workstations, visitors can try out how the digital pen works to color images or draw manga entirely on the computer. Wacom is showcasing pen tablets from the Intuos3 and Graphire4 series.
