Comic scripts & plots
(place holder)
All: Welcome to our hub of sample scripts. Here artists should be able to find a script they can use for their portfolio needs. They will be divided up into sections by page count. I'm hoping the format will be artist friendly, but I am open to suggestions, so feel free to PM me if you have one. ...
Passing the Pen is an idea brought to us by xenogogue in which the writers here at The Writing Lab contribute articles to the community for discussion, awareness, or whatever tickles our fancy regarding writing in general and the comic book community. If you wish to contribute an article, feel...
We're going to do extraterrestrials this time, although your stories don't have to take place here on Earth. All you have to do is figure out how to come up with an original entertaining story about aliens. And the rules are: *Nothing sexual in nature (romantic love scene, is ok, but nothing...
I apologize if something similar has been posted before. As we continue to support this community of comic writers, I thought it would be cool to start a thread of recommendations that writers should have in hand. Whether that be for pacing, plot, sequential story-telling, whatever. Hopefully,...
The geist issue #1 by ra'chaun rogers 10/04/07 page one panel 1: Tight on a masked figure sitting down we can't see his face, we're behind the figure, they’re wearing what appears to be a long coat, however there are african symbols on it
Has anyone here submitted a proposal to Image? If so what were your results. Getting ready to send in a proposal with a fairly known artist, just wondering what the odds are like. Thanks
Hello folks I'm new to the forum. Just here to get some guidance and maybe a few friends. I started writing comics in HS like most people. I'm currently working on a comic called the Geist which i copy wrote and have posted on some other sites including my blog. The story is about a man named...
This is the first timing I'm posting a script here. Let me know what you think. I tried to keep it as short as I could. Oh, and the title is temporary. I'll come up with a better one later. THE JUMP PAGE ONE (three panels) Panel 1. Large shot, seen from a high angle. The sun is setting...
Hi everybody, I'm new to this sight and I'm a writer. Here's something that I'm currently working on. Thank for the input. PAGE 1 Taking up an entire page. Billions of tiny illuminated specs that can only be describe as a vast circling of stars, spiral around an empty blackness DECLAN...
Hey, this is the start of story I've been bouncing around my brain for a while. Just the first four pages, I'll probably to keep putting up in chunks. It's also the first thing I've written in ages, so rip it up. It can only help. Page One (3 panels) Panel 1 We are in an elementary school...
A big thanks to everyone who participated this time around. Remember: DON'T VOTE FOR YOURSELF!!
(Sorry if this has been plugged before. I didn't see anything when I searched.) I've been using wikis to keep track of my writing data for some time now. I first came across this handy doo-dad when transitioning from online to locally-stored wikis. I'd been using the online wikis to store...
This is a project that I've been working on with a great artist from Argentina that I found on the internet. Got everything down for the first issue yesterday and I'm a little unsure of what to think. Here's the PDF: streetcleaner_issue_1 And the first five pages: Page 1 Page 2 Page 3
Hey guys and gals! I wrote an 8 pager back in May and have just posted the 8th finished page up on my blog. Eternal Struggle! is the story of two super powered enemies talking trash to each other. I'm happy to report that if it wasn't for this site this comic wouldn't exist! Please give it a read...
http://www.amazon.com/Livescribe-2GB-Pulse-Smartpen-APA-00002/dp/B001AAN4PW So I read a review for this in a business magazine recently. It's obviously geared towards doctors, students, note takers, etc. But here's my thing; I f-ing hate typing. I've been a hand-writer for years, and I know...
Hey folks, I'm working on the ideas for my first comic and I'm curious what approached people use when writing. I'm guessing it will depend on an individual but I'm curious if there are some practices that are more common. So far I've gathered all my ideas in a mindmap - characters & their...
I need an artist to collaborate with me on a project I've written/created called "The Adventures Of Jack And Dorothy Kite" please email me for a copy of the first issue's panel descriptions and so forth. It's a blackly comedic slice of life story about an affluent family composed of a spoilt,...

I meant to post this a while ago and didn't get the chance for whatever reason. Either way, I think this is pretty interesting. Over on Ain't it Cool News they ran a Q and A session with Christopher Nolan. One of the things he goes into great detail about is his writing process. It was interesting...
Let me open by stating I think it's great that artists can obtain sample scripts here. I dig that this is a community of writers and artists sharing and collaborating. This post might come off as being against sharing and collaborating. That is not my intention. If script sharing here is intended...
This is the script that I wrote for the WC 46 contest a few posts down, and it was actually voted best of the lot in that topic. That said, while I admit I'm fond of the script, I can't help feeling that there are some things here that could still be improved. So, if possible, I would like to...
I just finished and posted issue #11 of my ongoing superhero comic book, Rapid City. This is a stand alone issue, so you can jump in and read it all by itself. Read it here. But be warned, once you do you will be hooked and feel like you have to go back and read them all.

When you read the first issue of a comic do you want to read an origin first, or be thrown right into the actiom? Also if you start out with action should you fill in the blanks in the first issue or later?
I don't know if anyone remembers, but I posted three of my scripts up here for feedback...well the comic is hitting the web soon and the website is up if anyone is interested. http://www.foreignmattercomic.com/ I have six issues in the can and six more to write. I hope you decide to read...

All feedback is welcomed... Title - The Marks page 1 - ext - park - day panel 1
Hey Guys! First off, let me say this. I am not a writer! But i kinda had an idea for an arc, and i wanted to see if anyone thought it had any promise. A virus breaks out, and zombies are born! They eventually take over globally. They live in our ravaged cities, towns, everywhere. As their...

I love using CeltX for scripting. It organizes everything for me, formats it all nice, and basically just makes sure I don't have to think about the little things so I can get back to actually writing. But it's a bitch to reformat everything in my word processor so I can show people my writing who...
Hey all. First, a big hello; I'm new to the forums, but I've been lurking a bit and intend to be a regular contributor to the community. I'm glad to be here with so many like-minded writers. I've written a few one-page mini comics, but they were never finished products--I know too few artists...
So, I've been on a crazy nostalgia kick lately and I just really wanted to write this. Just a bunch of fun. I even threw in a GOON quote. Thanks for checking it out and any feedback would be great. A NIGHT AT THE DOCKS Script for 5 pages PAGE 1:4 PANELS Panel 1: Wide, high angle shot of...
Yup you guessed it, this time you'll be writing about the ladies. No, not that way, your main character needs to be a woman. I know this board is filled with a lot of guys and it's time for all of you to get in touch with your feminine side. Ladies, you'll have an advantage in that way, but that...

A while ago I was inspired by an illustrator friend who was working on one of several comic pitches that a pair of writers would be shopping around to publishers. Since I like to come with ideas more than I like to follow them through, it was very appealing to sketch out a bunch of different...
So over in the sketch section NTAT drew a Robot Dude, followed by a Killer Monkey. I was inspired haha here is a short 4 pager I wrote for his characters, let me know what you think. Just for fun, took me about an hour. KILLER...
