Editing Comiket (section)

===Catalog===
For every Comiket, a [[Exhibition catalogue|catalog]] is released that contains information about the event. The catalog includes a list of all participating circles, maps of the convention layout, directions to and from the convention, rules for the convention, results from surveys held among Comiket participants, articles about topics relevant to ''dōjinshi'' creators, and one to two pictures ("circle cuts") for every participating circle. It is available in print and [[DVD-ROM]] format, and since Comiket 83, is available online behind a partial [[paywall]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Comiket WEB CATALOG|url=https://webcatalog.circle.ms/|access-date=December 27, 2012}}</ref>

Catalogs are made available for sale at stores two weeks before the event.<ref>{{cite web|title=Komiketto katarogu toriatsukaiten no goannai|url=http://www.comiket.co.jp/info-a/CatalogShop.html|publisher=Comiket|access-date=January 7, 2013}}</ref> The print version is roughly the size of an average [[phone book]], while the DVD-ROM version includes features such as advanced search functions and a clickable map. To date, there is no English edition of the catalog available, though the catalog does contain a four-page basic guide for attending Comiket in English, Chinese, and Korean.<ref>{{cite web|title=ComicMarket WebSite To Attendees from Overseas|url=http://www.comiket.co.jp/info-a/TAFO/C83TAFO/cmkfor.html|publisher=Comiket|access-date=January 7, 2013}}</ref>

Prior to Comiket 96, a purchased catalog was not required for admission to Comiket (see [[#2020 Summer Olympics changes|2020 Summer Olympics changes]] below).
