Calling all comic book creators!
Our annual talent search has officially returned!
This year marks Mad Cave’s 5th anniversary for our highly-anticipated annual talent search! (Woo!) With submissions open to creators all across the globe, we are always blown away by the breadth of talent submitting. By running this talent search our goal is to give aspiring creators the opportunity that many people can only dream of: having their work published!
We are excited to announce that, for the first time, we are now opening submissions for colorists as well as letterers!
We are currently searching for two writers, two illustrators, two colorists, and two letterers to work on an upcoming project. This search is specifically for diverse, underrepresented talent with a unique voice that has never worked with or been distributed by a major publisher.
The contest begins on May 1st, 2022, and runs through July 1st, 2022. Each entry will be considered by every member of our editorial team at Mad Cave Studios. The eight winners will be announced July 21st, so stay tuned!
Ready for your time to shine? Check out our official submission guidelines here!
Best of luck! We can’t wait to see your submissions!
