劇場公開される前、最愛の宝物は漫画の形で存在していた

The story of Cinta Pertama, the film produced by Dogma Pictures, which will be released first in the form of comics. This work is a collaboration between director Eugene Panji and comic Mice Cartoon.

Regarding the content in the comics, Eugene Panji said readers don't have to worry about the story being shown to be a spoiler from the film that will air in the future.

The story in this newly released comic tells of a person who can't forget his first love. The characters featured in the comic are also similar to the characters played by Adinda Thomas and Elang El Gibran in the film.

The story is about first love, many fail to move on from first love. Actually, this is part of the ecosystem that we build. Usually, movies stop at tickets, film releases continue to sell tickets, now we want to create a new ecosystem by making comics," said Eugene Panji during a press conference at Central Park, West Jakarta, Saturday, May 20.

Eugene believes that the stories in the comics can represent everyone's feelings. The reason is, from young people to the elderly, everyone has their own stories about their first love.

Meanwhile, Mice as a comedian appreciated the move from his first love production team in promoting films. He saw the possibility of a further collaboration between comics and filmmakers.

This is one of the first experiences for me. Thank you to Eugene, for involving me for the film promo. Maybe this new one seems to be a promo for a collab film with a local comic," said Mice.

On the other hand, Adinda Thomas and Elang El Gibran as the main characters in the film, which are also used as characters in the comics, welcomed the positive collaboration between films and comics.

Calling Mice an extraordinary cartoonist, the Sundanese actress did not want to comment on how the cartoonist photographed herself in the comics. However, he said the story that was shown was very related to the feelings of many people.

"I'm really afraid that I have to comment on Mas Mice's work, a very extraordinary, interesting and fun work. The story in the comic is of course related, I think if those who are breaking up, are in love, remember the first love or the ex. The story is packaged interestingly in the comic of Cinta Pertama," said Adinda.

Meanwhile, Elang El Gibran, who claimed to be an admirer of Mice's work since childhood, expressed his happiness in collaborating with the 52-year-old comic.

"If I myself have read Mas Mice's work from elementary school, that's why yesterday when I was told he was very happy. In the past, when I was little, I could only read his work, now I can collaborate," concluded Elang El Gibran.
