From Shawn Hoke at
Broken Frontier:
Coming to you in September 2004, a contest that encourages readers to create their own comic page(s) and be eligible for online shopping sprees and mini-comic packages.
It’s no secret, here at The Wall offices we love mini-comics. We also think that some of the most exciting and groundbreaking work in comics today comes from the ink-stained hands of the under appreciated self-publishers and creators toiling in near obscurity. Now, to get this work into the hands of comic readers, The Wall and Broken Frontier have teamed up with the mini-comics distribution site
Bowzizzer to bring you the “FREE MINI-COMICS CONTEST 2004!”
How can you win these photocopied gems? We're glad you asked. In order to be eligible for the contest* you must create a page (or more) of your own new work and send it in to our offices.
Email us for the address to send your comic page(s). We don’t care what you choose to make your comic page about or how you create it, just do it. Even if your grasp of anatomy is limited to stick figures, we want to see what you can do. Creating at least a page of your own original comic will give you an idea of what it’s actually like to make a comic.
From Scott Hsu Storaker of Bowzizzer.com: "I have long been a firm believer that in order to have a deep understanding of the medium and be a fan of self-published comics, a reader must also create their own comic at some point. It really magnifies the enjoyment of reading this type of work."
So, what are you waiting for? Grab a pencil, a pen or brush (even crayon) and paper and start drawing.
