Comics Experiment #4

Okay folks, this month's experiment is going to be a bit different.

The theme is 'Voices'.

But here's the problem: You can't use any words on the page.

Get to it! You have until the 15th of March. That's just over two weeks.

And as usual off topic submissions are welcomed.

The Comics Experiment in 2009

All has been quiet on the Comics Experiment front for a while now. Issue two (Hunger) never materialised due to a lack of submissions. But let's not lose hope! I had a think about the whole idea and realised that maybe people were put off by things like 'deadlines' and such. I genuinely am interested in just creating a forum for seeing other people's work so if deadlines aren't your thing, don't worry about that.

Also I considered that people might have been put off by the hassle of ultimately printing out the issue. So, instead we can focus on the whole thing just as a web thing. If people do want to print it out, then that's their call.

So i think I'll just start flinging out themes and people can make what they will of the idea. If you read the theme and don't want to use it, then don't. You should still submit if you have ideas of your own. And since we'll focus on the web now, there's no limitations to the number of pages you can use. Don't send in your 20 page opus, but if you've got a short tale to tell over 2 or 3 pages, what's stopping you?

Okay?

Our new theme is: Doubt.

Also, if anyone is interested The Forest Cafe is holding another Zine fair on 7th-8th February. If I receive enough submissions I might print out some copies and head on over to spread the word.
