DIGITAL WEBBING PRESENTS 2.0 (We're baaa-aaack!)

[goatfog]

It sure does. I sent in a submission two days ago, so I'm anxiously awaiting the verdict. Crossing my fingers!

And now there are two more submissions in your inbox.

Maybe Kel's enjoying a umbrella drink on a beach somewhere. It's been a bit quiet in here lately.

Sorry, folks, a lot going on around here and somehow I missed all these messages.

We're already looking for stories for #5. Since it's going digital to start with we don't have to wait and see how it sells before going on. Time and effort, yours and mine, is the only cost at this point.

Right now #1 is complete and sent off to Comixology. Of the nine stories slotted for #2-4 four are finished and in-hand, two are just waiting for me to letter them and three are in various stages of art.

As of yet Comixology has no set turnaround time for new material and it's being handled like all the "reprint" material... they get to it when they get to it and chances are a bunch will come out all at once. (I'm hoping as more original material starts going thru them they'll come to see the importance of allowing people get on set release schedules.) So, in the meantime, as soon as we get issues done we're going to send them in and when they get them out they get them out.

Yep, that's what I'm asking. A year from it's first release on Comixology. I'm asking for that year not only because with digital we "sit on the shelf" waiting to be bought indefinitely (unlike a print comic which gets a month or two), but also because we hope to do a print collections.

Submissions are being evaluated!

Another question that I'm sure has been answered already: do we need to include lettered pages in the submissions? Just to give an example of what the pages will look like, and then if accepted, send over un-lettered pages and script?

Good! Awaiting judgement, while eating grapes.

Yeah... at least rough letters slapped on there would be nice. Just makes it easier than having to go back and forth between the art and script.

Woo hoo! Mine and Grant Perkins' submission was just accepted!

[Kel Nuttall]

Honestly, you got in because you have the same name as James Bond's gun.

[Aaron Walther]

That's how I get everything in life.

[Mark Bertolini]

Quick question: where do you stand on black and white submissions? Yay or nay?

[Aaron Walther]

Any word on the future issues?

Woo Hoo!

Did this run yet? I'm sooo out of the loop.

[S_Rhoades]

So how exactly are we sending submissions in?

Here's my page if that's what you're looking for http://penciltoink.blogspot.com/ if not let me know and I'll submit correctly.
