About the Avenue of Comic Stars:

Hong Kong comics’ influence has gone beyond time and space, especially in Asia and among Chinese communities worldwide. Being a mature rival to Japanese comics, several Hong Kong comic works have been translated into more than 10 languages for readers all around the world. Affiliated creative works have been developed from comics. Such works range from films, TV drama series, novels, games, to toys, which have impressed readers for generations. To help Hong Kong comics explore the Mainland Chinese market, a Hong Kong Ani-Com Carnival was held in Shanghai during the World Expo 2010, Shanghai China. More than 20 figurines of Hong Kong classic comic characters were displayed at the Carnival which attracted more than 500,000 visitors.

With the aim to further promote Hong Kong comics, the world’s first comic-themed avenue of comic stars is set up by the Hong Kong Comics & Animation Federation, with the sponsorship from Create Hong Kong of the HKSAR Government. It is called the “Hong Kong Avenue of Comic Stars”, which is set to open on at the end of August 2012. Situated in Kowloon Park (East Wing) at Tsim Sha Tsui, and next to the renowned tourist spot, Park Lane Shoppers Boulevard, the Avenue features the painted figurines of local comic characters and handprints of famous local comic artists, as well as information on Hong Kong’s comic industry.

關於漫畫星光大道

香港漫畫一直在亞洲以至世界的華人社會，深具影響力，部分香港經典漫畫亦被翻譯成超過10種語言而通行世界，與日本漫畫分庭抗體。而由漫畫而衍生而成的創意作品不計期數，包括電影、電視、小說、遊戲、玩具等等，觸動一代一代的讀者。在2010年世博期中，香港漫畫嘉年華會在上海中展示的二十多個香港經典漫畫人物，亦深深吸引內地超過50萬的觀眾。

為此，香港動漫畫聯會向香港特區政府創意香港撥款資助，於 2012 年 8 月建設世界首條漫畫星光大道。大道位於尖沙咀九龍公園內，旁為著名旅遊區柏麗購物大道，大道內放置著名漫畫家的手印及漫畫人物的雕塑供遊人拍照。
