This will be my first of hopefully many, MANY posts at CBR. I hang out all over the Internet and while I've been here reading for many years, I have spent lots of time this year in forums and the such everywhere, so allow me to introduce myself:
My name is Jaymes Reed and I run Digital-CAPS (http://www.digital-caps.com/) , my one-man gang of a comic book lettering studio. I've been in business for about 7 years, but it is this year that I feel has been my best and most learned! I'm ready for the big boys now! Well, I'll let you be the judge of that.
I feel my rates are still the lowest out there for the quality -yes, you often get what you pay for- but in this case, you're getting a great deal for awesome quality! I expect my rates to go up near the end of the year, so snag me up while there is still time to have your book(s) lettered by the best up and coming letterer out there and save some money, too!
I look forward to talking to many and any of you throughout the coming months and years in these forums, but don't hesitate to send me a PM or an EMAIL (digitalcaps@gmail.com) today!

If there’s anybody here looking to have their comic book property developed into a line of action figures please contact me. Two things that I require are that the work has been published and is currently available at retail, and the character designs must lend themselves well to a retro style action figure. By retro style I’m talking about something that was released in the late 70’s or early 80’s.
This is something I’m dead serious about doing and I’ve already worked out most of the details from a production standpoint. I just recently had a deal in the works that fell through which is why I’m on the hunt for something new.

Hey, all, I'm a recent college graduate with an art degree but with no idea as for what I'm going to do in this post-college world (A common problem, I'm sure). As such, I'd like to keep in shape with drawing some comics, since it's something I love to do and would like to get my foot in the door for the future.
You can find my comics portfolio here: http://www.comicspace.com/ianmiller
My fine arts portfolio can be found here: http://ianjamesmiller.blogspot.com
I can pencil and ink, and if need be I'm comfortable in watercolor, acrylics, oils, and even digital programs like Photoshop and Illustrator.
I figure I should do something art-related now, and I'd love to start working on drawing a comic. If the story is short enough or I like it enough I can do it for free, but if at all possible I'd be forever greatful for some supplemental income (Does that make me sound like a prima donna? I hope not. Sorry if it does:tongue:)
So if you like my stuff, give me a shout. The best way to contact me is through AIM (UniverseX259), or through email (imiller@oswego.edu or universex259@aol.com).

Any artists out there looking to show an editor they know how to do character designs based on a writer's text? Anyone want to hone their cover skills, even take some prose and turn it into sequentials?
I'm looking for artists to work with on my online serial, Mere Mortals (http://meremortals.wordpress.com). Right now it's just a story, but I would love to work with some talented folk to come up with some visuals. I can't draw to save my life (and I couldn't really pay anything, either) but it could be an interesting challenge and a way to get some great exposure.
you can private me through cbr or email me at chad.grayson@sbcglobal.net if you're interested. I'm looking specifically for character designs for the 5 heroes of the main team, and then the main cast of characters. Also "cover" illustrations. They'll start out being posted on the sight and used for promotion, etc. Anything I use will defenitely be credited and promoted as YOUR work.

Iron Gent (http://www.penciljack.com/forum/showthread.php?t=85692) is a project that Bryan E. Warner and I have been working on over at Penciljack. The story originally stems from Bryan's joke drawing of Tony Stark's late cousin Ted Stark (http://www.penciljack.com/forum/showthread.php?t=85128), which inspired me to write a script (http://www.penciljack.com/forum/showthread.php?t=85545) for Ted.
Bryan is doing all of the pencils for the script, but we'll need a inker, colorist, and letterer to finish out this 'just for fun' project.
If you'd like to join in let us know, either in here or PM :biggrin:

Hiya, folks! I've started a new blog for Twilight Guardian, my new Top Cow Pilot Season book (voting starts in August; vote early and often!), and I thought it'd be fun to run some different depictions of the titular character (which sounds much dirtier than it is). It doesn't pay anything, but it's exposure (and if you've got a project out, I'd be glad to plug it). Reference art can be found on the site here (http://www.thetwilightguardian.blogspot.com/) (or you can always check out the comic, on stands now). You can reach me through PMs or at crullerscomic@aol.com. I hope to hear from you!

The book is still in the early stages, so I'm looking for an art team and a publisher to help with this (hopefully a publisher will be more inclined to help with some art to show). I can say at least there's a script and it's solid
Since this is a charity book, there's no pay to offer. The goal of the book is to raise money or at the very least raise awareness about Crohn's Disease. A good friend of my has it and I'm just trying to help them out in my own little way.

I learned to read reading comics and have had a love a comics ever since...
I have optioned one film screenplay that was "in development" with a $10M budget in New Orleans, when Hurricane Katrina hit - causing the location scouts to be pulled out. I have written a short script that was produced as a short film that debuted at the NewFilmmakers Fall 2007 Film Festival in NYC. Also, I have written dozens/hundreds of Standard Operating Procedures and Tecnical Bulletins for IT jobs.
I have writing credits and I love comics. The dream I had as a kid was to be a comics book writer. I am interested in writing comics and am looking for collaborators.
Thanks.

COMIC BOOK ARTIST NEEDED - PAID JOB $20. PER PAGE
Please READ THIS ENTIRE POST before contacting me. Thanks.
I recently wrote a four issue comic book mini series. I am looking for a penciler/inker to complete the 22 page first issue. I can afford $20.00 per page, for a total of $440.00 for the project. If I am able to secure a publishing deal, I will hire you for the additional 66 pages, for an additional fee of $1320. If you would rather work for commission, we spilt the gross 50/50 (minus publishing costs) instead. I’m good either way.
Didgitals are fine as long as they print to 10X8 paper without losing any quality.
I am really looking for someone who enjoys their art and loves to create. I prefer someone who has worked on comics before, but this is not a requirement, but you must have sample artwork!
If you’re interested please submit your information, previous artwork, references and expected turnaround time.
The script to the first draft of the first issue you would be working on is located here:
http://www.shannoncronin.com/timeline/the_timeline.pdf
PLEASE EMAIL ME ONLY! THAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO ENSURE I GET YOUR MESSAGE!!!!
Contact: SPCronin@gmail.com
Thank you in advance!!!!
Hi, I'm an up and coming writer looking to team up with an artist. I want to get experience working together, see what we can come up with, try working both full script and plot first. I have a lot of good ideas, but sometimes don't carry them through to completion. I think having a partner might help curb that. I'd eventually like to get some stuff published. Lastly, I'd like a non-cartoonish art style.

Digital Colorist needed to color pilot illustrations for a graphic novel based on an Asian war hero. This presentation will be submitted to major comic book publishers. Applicants must submit samples of their work.
COLORING STYLE:
Should be similar (but not limited to) colorists such as Frank D’Armata. The art for this book must project a very epic and cinematic feel; think 300, only more realistic. It’s going to be full of action (battleships exploding, heads being chopped off, etc.) and so the colorist must be able to work with multiple palettes. Attention to detail is a must!
STORY SYNOPSIS:
This is a four-issue limited series that tells the story of Admiral Yi Soon Shin, a warrior of real and epic proportions sworn by duty and honor to protect his people at all costs from the devastating and brutal Japanese regime that threatens to conquer his country. Having never been defeated in battle despite being vastly outnumbered, Yi Soon Shin has gone down in history as one of most brilliant and revered military leaders.
SCOPE OF THE WORK:
The pilot presentation will consist of the following;
1.) Three-four (3-4) fully illustrated pages from a finished script.
2.) Five (5) fully illustrated character designs.
COMPENSATION:
Compensation is negotiable and artists will be fully credited for their work. Please submit all work to OLKompan@aol.com.

I'm looking for comic book short stories for my Renderwrx Productions label. I need only one story right now, between 8 and 16 pages. If any writers out there have an already complete short story, a self contained one, mind you not ongoing. Any genres. Please forward it to me at stuffph@hotmail.com.
I can not pay anything up front, but if story is published there will be royalties. I already have an artist ready and waiting, I just need to pair him up with a compatible story. If I like your work I can promise future work and possible more profits.
So writers please submit plot/synopsis with a complete script!
And thanks!

An RPG company I've done occasional writing work for has asked me to post this:
---------------
We have several plot-point compaign settings and adventures currently in production.
Primarily what we are seeking right now is the ability to draw Noir with a touch of the supernatural. Prospective artists must understand Noir lighting and shading, and be able to draw a variety of mundane and supernatural elements. The products contain ac combination of Noir photography and art, so the art must have clean lines able to compliment the included photos.
The art will be simple scenes (like a Patchwork Man bartender cleaning a glass as he listens to an average Joe), a hitman slithering under a door toward his target, et cetera.
The job pays $40 per piece [note from me: The checks I've gotten are always on time]
Contact lee@arborproductions.com with any questions.

Cock of the Walk Comics – The Beginning
July 28, 2008. Cock of the Walk Comics officially comes into fruition today. C.o.t.W. is first and foremost looking for talented creators to bring to the C.o.t.W. label. C.o.t.W. is looking for all sorts of different genres to publish, and will not discriminate on the genre you submit. As long as it is well written, we’re interested.
Cock of the Walk will publish via print on demand, unless of course the creators of the comic are interested in printing it up in advance. If that is the case, however, we will have to advise you that whilst Cock of the Walk can and will help you promote your comic and market it, we cannot pay your printing costs, and this is entirely up to the creator(s).
Cock of the Walk is also considering the options of soliciting an anthology, with proceeds going towards leukemia and cancer charities.
Cock of the Walk is also in need of “backroom” staff. Editors, designers, etc., who are willing to help in the day-to-day running of the company. Whilst C.o.t.W. is an online entity, we will still need a committed staff to help run the company.
Those interested in submitting to Cock of the Walk (whether it be pencils, inks, lettering, scripts or a completed project) please contact submissions.cotwcomics@gmail.com.
Those interested in a role to do with the running of the company; please send an email to general.cotwcomics@gmail.com, with a brief rundown of what you believe you can bring to the company.
One more thing that should be added is that all creators will retain the rights to their stories. We would eventually like to create our own “universe”, with characters from many creators, but this is a long-term goal that will not come into fruition for some time.
Thank you for your time, we look forward to hearing from you, and keep an eye out for a website and forums in the coming weeks.
Cock of the Walk Comics.

Hey, I'm LibertyCabbage, author of a few obscure webcomics out there, and I'm back at it again, teaming up with Slitwrist Studio ( http://www.slitwriststudio.com ) to do a collab project I've had rolling around the back of my mind for a while.
This project, as I've conceived it, will be a continuous collection of short comics, ranging from one to ten pages in length each, that will be published in groups as a monthly update (sort of like a web magazine). Each monthly update will feature about five shorts, give-or-take depending on the lengths of the submissions.
What we're looking for are:
- writers to submit comics scripts in length ranging from a minimum of one page to a maximum of ten pages.
- artists willing to contribute their skills towards making the comics, whether it be in pencils, inks, colors, lettering, or any combination of the above.
I'll be serving as editor for the project, selecting the best scripts and artists in order to ensure a high level of quality, and I'll be working with Slitwrist to scrounge the Web for interested talent.
Some details:
- There is no limit or restriction on content or style of the comics as long as it's tastefully done. Be creative!
- There is no restriction to size or format of the pages.
- All contributors will get full credit and ownership of their work, as well as having links to their personal site displayed to help promote their other work.
- Unfortunately, there are no plans at this time to give payment for any contributions. However, this project might help you get exposure and experience as well as feedback to help you improve your skills. Also, you'll be able to make good comics and express yourself without the hassle of having to look for others to work with.
- Keep in mind that to ensure quality of content, not all contributors will be accepted. However, I will try to give helpful feedback to anyone who's not accepted.
- Artists will be given a script or choice of scripts to work on. However, if they don't want to work on the script/s they can turn them down and wait for something they like better to come along. Also, artists can specify certain kinds of genres/styles they'd prefer to work with as well as a general comic length they prefer to work with.
- Artists can draw their own scripts, although it's recommended that they submit the script for approval before drawing it.
- We're looking for new content created exclusively for this project. So, we prefer that you don't submit anything that's already been published in print or on the Web.
- As editor, I'll be proofreading the scripts for changes to spelling and grammar, although no changes will be made without the writer's permission.
- I will likely be contributing scripts and/or artwork at some point.
- You can send in as many scripts as you want as long as none of them are any longer than ten pages. Also, artists can apply to work on multiple comics if they wish to.
- If I think of anything else, I'll add it to this list!
If you're interested in contributing, please send your submission (or any questions) to libertycabbage@hotmail.com :
Writers - Send a one-to-ten page script that contains the name you'd like to be credited as, an e-mail address for me to contacted you with, and a personal website you'd like to promote (if applicable).
Artists - Send some examples of your work or a link to an online portfolio. Examples of previous comic work a plus! Also, specify what area/s of artwork you'd like to contribute (pencils, inks, colors, lettering, or all of the above).
Thanks for reading this, and I hope to hear from you soon!

Hi everyone,
I am looking to see if any artist/inker would like to possibly enter the Zuda.com (DC Comics) contest with me? According to the rules and entry form we would submit 8 pages and possibly have the chance to tell our story in an additional 52 pages.
The story itself is a horror/comedy in the tradition of a Troma like film.
Any monies received would be spilt 50/50. My contributions would include writing of the script, coloring and lettering. Your contributions would be artist/inker/separations.
Below you will find the first few pages of a film script I wrote about 4 years ago. It’s currently in film style, but if I am able to find a collaborator, I will adapt it to an 8 page comic book script. Please note I crossed out the course language, but it would remain in the final, unless Zuda (DC Comics) asks us to clean it up.
SCRIPT
FADE IN:
EXT. MILL RECYCLING CENTER - NIGHT
A small stationary work trailer is covered in snow. An old sign is hanging on the side which reads “Mill Recycling Center.” The A forest as well as a chain linked fence surround the trailer. Stacks of bottle and aluminum cans are stacked in separated piles as well as newspaper. A tree shredder can also be is parked at a side.
Light from a television can is leaking through the windows. Static from the T.V. is barley audible.
INT. WORK TRAILER - NIGHT
Garbage covers what appears to have once been a desk. Flies roam over the half eaten food which lies next to a garbage can. Beer bottles are scattered throughout the place.
We hear the television static growing louder as we see an old man lounging in a torn up recliner chair. He is staring at the television with a beer in one hand and his d_ck in the other.
We now see what the old man is watching, or at least trying to watch. It is a porn channel which has not been descrambled. The old man gets excited as what appears to be a breast flashes across the television in a swamp like green color.
OLD MAN
Yeah b_tch, that’s what I like. Show me some t_tties.
We now know the old man is using this time to j_rk off. A female a_s flashes across the television as well a second of audible sound in which we can hear a woman moaning.
OLD MAN
A_s is good too, sk_nk.
The old man is stroking harder and harder. His chair begins to shake and he begins to moan. He now looks like he is having a stroke, but it’s just him j_rking off. Right when he is about to climax the television’s power goes out.
OLD MAN
Son of a bitch! Goddamn it!
He throws his beer bottle across the trailer in anger. He quickly stands up and readjusts his pants. Tightening his belt around his waist we see him begin to kick some of the garbage around.
OLD MAN
This is bullsh_t! Perfect f_cking timing. F_ck! Just great!
He sticks his hand in to a pile of litter he has just moved around.
OLD MAN
There you are.
He pulls out a MAGlight flashlight and checks to make sure it still works properly. He quickly turns it on and off and back on again.
He walks towards the front of the trailer, grabbing a jacket and throwing it on. He opens the front door and exits.
EXT. MILL RECYCLING CENTER – NIGHT
The old man stumbles out of the trailer as if the beer is just now catching up with him. He shines the flashlight to one side of the trailer and makes his way over. He is now at the fuse box, and opens it to investigate.
OLD MAN
What the hell?
He pulls out a Christmas tree branch and holds it up to his flashlight.
OLD MAN
Son of b_tch. How’d that get in there?
He checks the fuses and quickly turns the power back on.
INT. WORK TRAILER - NIGHT
The old man reenters the trailer and takes his jacket off hanging it on the coat rack. He makes his way over to the fridge and opens the door. He grabs a beer, biting the cap off, and downs the entire bottle. He grabs another beer, again bites the cap off and goes back to the reclining chair.
The television is back on and breasts appear in a mix of haze and static.
OLD MAN
Hey bitch. I have something for you.
He begins to reach in his pants grabbing his d_ck. As he is about to whip it out a loud bang is heard from outside.
OLD MAN
Mother f_cker!
The old man set’s his beer down and walks over to the window. Not being able to see anything in the dark, he grabs the flashlight and shines it outside through the window. After a moment of panning the light around he notices a Christmas tree lying in the snow outside.
OLD MAN
What in blazes? Oh this is just bullsh_t.
He chooses to ignore the fact that a Christmas tree is now lying in the snow directly in front of the trailer. He begins to make his way towards the reclining chair, when again a loud bang can be heard from outside. The old man rushes back to the window. He again shines the flashlight outside. This time the tree is gone. In its place is nothing more that an indent in the snow.
OLD MAN
F_cking kids.
The old man grabs his jacket and throws it on. He also grabs a baseball bat which is hanging on the wall. He exits the trailer.
EXT. MILL RECYCLING CENTER – NIGHT
The old man makes his way outside of the trailer. He shines the light where the tree was as he walks over to the indent. One there the old man notices pine needles lay in the indent.
He looks around in all directions.
OLD MAN
Listen here you little pr_ck f_cks! I don’t give a flying f_ck if you faggits want to steal trees. I could really give a flying faggit f_ck-f_ck.
The old man continues to shine his flashlight in all directions, but now taking more aim into the wooded area.
OLD MAN
You want to steal trees, fine! Just don’t do it when I am trying to see some t_tty!
Like a ghost in the machine, the tree shredder turns on.
OLD MAN
Oh bullsh_t. I tried to be cool. I tried to be hip maduf_ckers!
The old man is now holding up the baseball bat halfway above his head. He walks over to the tree shredder.
OLD MAN
You think this is funny?
He now looks into the entrance of the tree shredder.
OLD MAN
Bullsh_t is what it is. Bullsh_t.
Just then he is pushed into the tree shredder. We cannot see who or what has pushed him, but we know he was pushed. He tumbles and turns feet first. He begins to scream not only in fear but in pain as he slowly slides into the blades. Blood and human meat are now shooting out of the tree shredder. More blood than imaginable. Flesh is flying threw the air at rapid speed. He tries to pull himself out, but it’s no use. His own body weight is now his worst enemy.
His chest is now being shredded. Now his arms are sucked up. Finally his head is swallowed into the blades and a loud “squish” is heard as if Gallagher had just smashed a watermelon. The old man had kept screaming until there was no more of him left.
We see a Christmas tree shacking and the sound of laughter, standing over the tree shredder. Blood covers it's branches.

Hi all, I'm new to CBR. I'm looking for an artist for a script I've written. I'd like to find an artist to read my script and see what he can do and if interested I'm offering 50/50 co-ownership if we can get the comic published. The script is darker and I'm proud of it. I've given it to many people including my screen writing professor and gotten very positive feedback. I can't offer any money because right now but like I said I offer co-ownership and splitting any money made if published. You can PM me or email me at kal09@mts.net

Please read entire post before submitting...
Hey guys, we've filled our stable of print titles but we're expanding into webcomics as well. Unfortunately only our print creators are paid, our webcomic creators are not paid. We do however promise a ton of exposure when we launch in January. We have a solid, experienced crew of editors and plan a solid launch with strong financial backing, all of which is going into marketing our creators.
If you have a title that you'd like exposure on, let us know! We'll get it on our website and promote the hell out of it! We do NOT want super-hero titles, but we'll consider any other genre. Here's the one caveat, the pages must be 750px W x 500 px H. There's no exceptions, you'll have to adapt. Please, only send us a brief synopsis of your title at this time. If we are interested we'll request more information. If you must send us actual pages to look at please send links only, no attachments.
You must write "webcomic" in subject line or it will be deleted. Thanks

From Warren Ellis' Bad Signal email "Building The Imperfect Beast"...
Okay, I'm pretty sure I did do this last year, but I think it's reconfigured in my head since then. So.
What you need is one writer and three artists. Essentially, you decide to Form A Band.
And you decide up front that all the money from the anthology comic is divided 4 ways equally. This is for simplicity's sake -- people argue this point with me all the time, but I have had publishers say to my face that they avoid anthologies, especially creator-owned ones, because THE SUMS ARE TOO HARD. Keep it simple. 25% for everybody.
What you're going to do, you see, is one writer writing three serials for three artists.
You're doing a two-dollar book. That's FELL format. A 24pp unit, all on the same paperstock, including covers. "Guts" of 20pp, with the "cover", constituting 4pp, wrapped around it, yes?
Three 6pp episodes is 18 pages. Your cover and inside front cover for indicia etc are 2pp. So that leaves you 4pp, including the back cover, to play with. Use them to interleave the serials, use them as backmatter, let the artists take turns doing full-page pieces, whatever.
The cover art is a rotating job between the three artists.
Collect it every six months as a 128pp book (therefore still splitting everything four ways) or collect each serial on its own as best fitting (each book therefore splitting 50/50). (As is blatantly obvious, but people like to ask these questions instead of thinking for themselves.)
Go and do it. I need something to read.
Form a band, boys and girls. Form a band.
I've been meaning to pull something together along these lines for awhile now. Then the latest Bad Signal email from Ellis shows up in my inbox this morning. I figure this could serve as the kick in the ass to actually get working on such an endeavor.
It's pretty straight forward -- I'm a writer looking for three artists to "form a band." Hit me back if you're interested or have any questions. Thanks.

Looking for artists who would like to work on any of the following projects:
-A (not so ordinary) vampire story. Art for this would be realistic and gritty, a dark feeling.
-A teen superhero team story (a la Teen Titans/Young Avengers). Artwork for this would need to be more teen-orientated, with a general "younger" feel to it.
-A vigilante superhero story. Artwork would need to be gritty, yet still a nice superhero-ish style.
If you're interested please contact me via philsmith69907@gmail.com
Thanks, guys. :)

hi im looking to get a sleeve designed but i cant find a tattooist to do it that i like, as i want something more comic based than a traditional tattoo. the base idea is space underwater and the main part being a goofy looking cartoon squid wraping round a 50's style si-fi lazer gun there is a bit more to it but i can explaine that later if you are interested my email is (a_strange_trip@hotmail.com) i will pay cash for the final design.

We are currently seeking a sequential artist for a paid submission package, and subsequent ongoing/mini-series monthly comic if project is green lighted by a publisher. Artist should have an appreciation for the fantasy genre, as well as an interest in ‘breaking into’ comics.
Project involves up-front page rate for the submission package, however we are looking for someone that is interested in collaborating to get their work published, more than interest in the freelance aspect (not that there is anything wrong with that, or that you can’t do both – it is simply where we are coming from with this project).
Essentially the pay offered for submission package is a ‘safety net’ for someone interested in collaboration, but tired of taking chances on projects that are never accepted by a publisher. We are only looking for people who would be interested in continuing on the project if it is picked up with the understanding that it would be a division of profits (back-end) situation.
Interested artists should e-mail to sequentialart@live.com with links to current sequential art samples, list of published work (if any), and page rate. Script (obviously) and other additional information is available for those that may be interested. We are proponents of contracts that make people comfortable and safe, and will work out details with interested parties in advance of work.
E-mails will be accepted until September 6th 2008.
Thank you for taking the time to consider our offer.
J.L. Collins has been published by Wizards of the Coast in Realms of the Dragons II: A Forgotten Realms Anthology, and also published in Dragon Magazine #332 - A Novel Approach. William Ward edited the Fantasy Anthology Fablewood, which was recently, spotlighted by Ursula K. Le Guin under her ongoing Some Books I’ve Liked website entries.

Hi everyone,
I am looking to see if any artist/inker would like to possibly enter the Zuda.com (DC Comics) contest with me? According to the rules and entry form we would submit 8 pages and possibly have the chance to tell our story in an additional 52 pages.
The story itself is a horror/comedy in the tradition of a Troma like film.
Any monies received would be spilt 50/50. My contributions would include writing of the script, coloring and lettering. Your contributions would be artist/inker/separations.
Below you will find the first few pages of a film script I wrote about 4 years ago. It’s currently in film style, but if I am able to find a collaborator, I will adapt it to an 8 page comic book script. Please note I crossed out the course language, but it would remain in the final, unless Zuda (DC Comics) asks us to clean it up.
