Remember when you first discovered comic books, and your first instinct was to think up the coolest superhero you could? Yeah, we're doing that. We've got three clear requirements:
Invent a comic book character. Give us their name, backstory, and mission. You don't have to go with a classic superhero with powers, but if you do, tell us what they are and where they came from.
Show us what they look like. Original artwork is warmly welcomed, but you can use properly credited third-party art to give us a flavour. We're not using AI art in our curated content for now, so do NOT use AI unless you don't want to appear in curated content.
Pitch us their debut comics run, their six-issue introductory story.
The best ten submissions get $3 apiece!
Task: Invent an original comic book character, depict them, and pitch their first story
Format: Original writing with original or third-party images
