We're looking for indie comic features right now!

As we work on our first magazine edition we'll be hunting for independent artists to promote. Our first theme covers topics such as greek/roman mythos, doorways and openings, beginnings, coming of age, and options and resolutions. If this matches your comic or one you enjoy please give us a recommendation either on this post or in our asks box along with how to contact the author. We will not be too strict about theme as this is our first issue.

For more terms, specifications, policies etc. please check below.

We do ask that all submissions be SFW for a general audience (if you have questions about what is and isn't appropriate please contact us, we will be happy to discuss)

Fancomics are welcome

Less popular comics are preferred and will be prioritised

Yes you may absolutely submit yourself or your works

Yes we have a separate column for additional artists that don't make comics

No comics will be featured without consent from the author

Spreads, interviews, articles, etc will be approved by the author in question before release to the public

This is NOT an official publication, we receive no funding, nobody gets paid. This is all volunteer work offered by a couple of comic artists with too much time.

There are no contracts involved with this and no small text other than "help us spread our magazine"

finished magazine will be posted on Tumblr, Tapas, and Webtoons. Authors may share the magazine anywhere else they please.

Ask box is always open to questions and concerns. Questions are free too!!

Due to trickling submissions and the time it takes for production:

We are setting THIS saturday (December 22, 2023) as the cut-off date for the comics submissions for the January edition.

You can still submit comics after that date, but they will not apply to the January comic and instead go to the next issue, which will (hopefully) be uploaded in March.

The theme for the next issue will be Celtic (or similar) mythos, fae, and Magic.

For more details refer to the text under the cut:

Fae, in the context of Celtic culture, refers to magic entities that are non-human. This includes more typical sidhe, ghosts, elves, dryads, etc. Since the Celts, fae have made an abundant appearance in storytelling from classical literature, such as Shakespeare, to more modern works such as Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter. It is because of Celtic mythology that we have many of the fantasy races we have today, such as pixies, elves, dwarves, etc!

But the Celts aren't the only ones with their own stories of magic. Almost every culture has its own version of "Fae-like" creatures, and we would like to specify that ALL CULTURES ARE WELCOME AND ENCOURAGED.

From classic mythos to contemporary magic, we aim to cover all kinds of magic and tales of grandeur from all over the world and highlight the importance of a little mysticism and magic escapism in human society across the world.
