Thread: The Indie Comics Challenge!

  1. #1

    The Indie Comics Challenge!

    I always wanted to participate in one of these things, but they always seem to be about superheroes or things like Star Wars and Buffy that I'm generally not that interested in. So I'm going to make my own. This here is the challenge for indie comics fans.....

    Rules:

    The character(s) must not be a superhero, and must be from a comic that is not about superheroes; and not published by Marvel or DC (including Vertigo, Wildstorm, etc.) Sorry, I love non-superhero characters like John Constantine and Spider Jerusalem too, but they're not indie. I'm also disallowing 2000 AD characters.

    No licensed properties. No Star Wars or Aliens or Buffy, in other words, even though I realize according to the previous rule, they would count.

    No webcomics or manga, please.

    Any medium is acceptable. Pencils, inks, paints, digital, whatever you want.

    It must be a new drawing you did for this draw-off, not something you did previously.

    One entry per person.

    Deadline is one month from today, November 4, at midnight (that's the beginning of Nov. 4, not the end of it).

    Some ideas:

    Bone
    Strangers in Paradise
    Wet Moon
    Love and Rockets
    The Goon
    The Walking Dead
    Milk and Cheese
    Usagi Yojimbo
    Cerebus
    Scud the Disposable Assassin
    Scott Pilgrim

    and any number of other awesome indie books.

    World Wide comics!

    How about European or rest of the world characters?

    Both are fine. I added them to the list of ideas.

    Hmmm... tough call. I'm not really familiar with a lot of comics outside of the US. I said no 2000 AD or manga stuff, but if you're talking about characters from a country other than England or Japan, I have no idea. I'll let you use your discretion on that. If it's an indie book, I'm okay with it.

    One per person, please, but is this a new drawing or something you did a while ago? I'm kind of skeptical you did this since last night. Also, this seems a bit superheroey, maybe I'm wrong.

    I'll add those to the rules.
