Dominic Panganiban (born 27 September 1990),[2][3] better known online as Domics, is a Filipino-born Canadian YouTuber, animator, and cartoonist.

Domics generally posts story-time animations in which he tells stories about his life, an aspect of it, or his thoughts.[4] As of September 2024, Domics' YouTube channel has over 7.26 million subscribers and 1.2 billion views. His videos have been featured on multiple websites, including NewNowNext,[5] the Malay Mail Online,[6] and CBS News' website.[7] In November 2014, he joined the multi-channel YouTube network Channel Frederator Network. Prior to doing so, he had been working for a similar YouTube network known as Fullscreen. In July 2015, he told USA Today that compared to Fullscreen, "Frederator was a better fit, because they cater more towards animation channels."[8] Panganiban originally drew online comics, hence his screen name "Domics", a portmanteau of "Dominic" and "comics."[3] He discontinued this to create YouTube videos full-time. In 2018, Domics opened a board game café in Mississauga called "Domics' GG Gaming Café".[9] However, the café was shut down in October 2020.[10] It was located at the Heartland Town Centre. In March 2022, the café reopened at 900 Rathburn Road West in Mississauga.[11]
