Each year, Fumetto – International Comix-Festival Lucerne holds a competition to give comic creators the opportunity to compare their work, present it to a broader public and to exchange views with others. The competition's theme this year is

Indulgence or addiction – once in a while, off and on, regularly, self-indulgently. . .?. – What does indulgence mean to me? How much indulgence do I need? And do I want more and more of it? Do I still have the amount under control? When does indulgence turn into addiction? Do I indulge alone or together with others?
