Submissions
Writers and artists: tell us about your original comic project. This is an inquiry process only, and it does not guarantee that Imprint Comics will accept or publish your work.
Draft guidelines These guidelines are a draft and may change before submissions formally open.
Submission template
Include everything below in one email, and attach your artwork samples. Artwork should be finished, representative examples of your work, not rough sketches or unfinished concepts.
Comic title
The name of the proposed comic.
Creator names and roles
Identify the writer, artist, colorist, letterer, and any other contributors.
Comic description
Five sentences explaining the comic: its premise, main characters, and what makes the story distinctive.
Artwork samples
Five images of completed artwork. Each must be either fully colored artwork or completed inked and lettered artwork.
Project status
Briefly explain whether the comic is in development, fully scripted, partially illustrated, or otherwise in progress.
Additional information
Anything else relevant about the project, the creative team, or the intended format.
Additional guidelines
We will refine these before submissions formally open.
