Thank you for your interest in submitting your work to us,
please read our official submission guidelines below.

 

Good luck!

 

 

Dark Wave Comics only publishes creator-owned material.
We’re only truly interested in publishing original content.

 

PROPOSAL REQUIREMENTS:

  1. A brief, typed cover letter that summarizes your project and your previous work, only if relevant.
    Include contact information (name, e-mail address and a potential video chat ID or phone number).
  2. A typed, one page, synopsis of the overall story arc(s).
    Tell us what sets your story apart from other comics/manga and be clear as to who the target audience is.
  3. Either a copy of, scripts, inked and lettered sequential pages, or portfolio work (this may include character sketches or bios).
  4. (This is not a must but definitely preferred) A cover or cover mock-up—this’ll display your connection on your expected market and gives us a clear view on your vision.
    With creator approval, this may go through a joint redesign if we decide to induct your project.
  5. Email all submissions to submissions@darkwavecomics.com.
    We are not accepting physical submissions at this time.

 

THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND

  • The creative team in your pitch is the one we expect to see actually working on your book.
  • We are happy to assist you with your creative needs and offer you services for example,
    if you are an artist and require a script written for your project, we can have one of our best writers on board.
    And vice versa, we can introduce you to our fellow artists and begin production promptly.
  • We are not looking for any specific genre of comic book.
    We are interested in stories that are well written and/or well drawn, representing diverse backgrounds/cultures
    and most importantly by people who are passionately dedicated.
    We appreciate and respect the creative process just as much as we do for the output.
