It's been a while, but our editorial board is through with the submissions we had backed up, and I'm sending out the information over the next few days, if you were waiting to hear back from us. If you were thinking about submitting something, now is a wonderful time, as we have a good window. Eagle...

Sure. That's easy. Go here: http://no-earth.com/collaborations-chart/ pick an idea, and send us a pitch. Prepare to be critiqued. And it is a back-end pay deal if you are good enough to get all the way through to the script stage, and we pair an artist with you. Eagle (Wish they were all this easy)

congrats man! it is certainly hard to stay in the game of publishing more than a couple of months past the uber famous "issue 1"! Heheheh...We haven't made that yet. We've got two issue 1's going to press in May for release in June. But no, we have backing to have each issue printed for the next 5 ...

Just thought I would update and bump this old ad. We hit our one year mark yesterday, so it was time to do this again.

Eagle
(And there were people saying we would not last)

Hey, a Texan! It's a wonderful idea! Honest!

Seriously, that's the right attitude you have there.

Ok, first things first. Copyright. Under US copyright law anything that you put into a published form (including in a post on a forum) is copyrighted, automatically. You do not have to mark it, you do not have to submit it, you do not have to pay a fee. Copyright simply is. Second. Ideas. They are a...

Love the new thread title, even more misleading than the first one.

Eagle
(Please stop, I can't take it anymore)

You still have yet to get this, so I will spell it out. You don't get to set rules, requirements and conditions in a public forum. Look back over the long list of posts in this section of ZWOL, and you'll see that people asking for clarification is normal. It's what happens. You will also discover t...

You know, I kinda thought I had dropped out of this thread, but I do feel the need to post this at this point. You were just rude to yet another person with legit questions. EDIT: The last sentence of the previous paragraph was written before Valuecomics edited his post to remove the less than polit...

As I said, it was no effort and no trouble. I am a frequent contributor to that subreddit with a triple digit karma, and tripped across it the same way I found it on this forum. NO-Earth is built on collaborations so I keep up with all forums where such collabs happen. https://www.reddit.com/r/Comic...

Serendipity is an amusing thing. I was reading through Reddit's Comic Collabs subreddit, a place where I post and read a lot, and came across a post that looked familiar. The response you got there was to be downvoted, but the most important thing was that you had linked an image to that one, which ...

Are you serious? "Cringe-worthy hissy fit?" "Uncouth display of contempt?" Feel free to point out what you think I said that was less than professional. NO-Earth treats potential contributors with the utmost respect. I have treated you with respect, simply due to the fact that I treat everyone that ...

If you read the post this is a request to cover me while the book gets produced. Once it's done it will be shopped around. It's nothing more complicated than this. And thanks for your question. I would have preferred if you followed the instructions and emailed me instead, but at least your contrib...

Hey, do you have samples of your work to show us? I have several scripts sitting around that need artists, but without seeing your preferred style, I wouldn't know what to pitch you.

Eagle
(Links would be nice)

Um...Seriously? You want someone to invest 2 grand into your comic idea and that doesn't cover actually producing it, but simply to pay you to write and draw it? Another few thousand for printing after that, or is this magnum opus so good that publishers are going to be in a bidding war to get it? H...

Dear Gods. I've been spammed!!

Eagle
(I'm finally someone!!)

We are posting a new comics page every Monday, alternating between Warmage and The Law of the Jungle. We have a new series, John Doe, that will start posting in the next 45 days, and Pride will be returning from Hiatus in the next 30 days. There's always something new to read on NO-Earth Comics! Eag...

Most people doing this are hobbyists. Or people attempting to break into the business one way or another. You are charging the lower end of what some of the companies pay, so that's pretty much saying that you have professional quality work. Maybe you should be aiming at the publishers instead of pe...

Just as a suggestion, you might want to give a bit more information. You know.....a pitch? In order to get an artist, you need to sell your idea and get them as excited about drawing it as you are about writing it.

Eagle
(Just a suggestion)

In other words, you are wanting people to provide you with 40-44 pages (2 months worth of episodes) of content on a backend deal for a website that hasn't launched yet?
That lets me and my comics out.

Eagle
(I'm happy to get 2 new pages a month from my artists)

Just letting people know that we have added a fourth series to the NO-Earth stable of comics. Warmage takes place in both the modern day and the Atlantis era of NO-Earth. This is a new direction for the company, and is our first CGI comic, but it doesn't look like the typical CGI that you have gotte...

So am I.

Eagle
(And what's the marketing campaign look like)

Just another post, since we have gotten such good response from this. We have added to our staff, all in an effort to keep up with the pitches and proposals that have been coming in. Several of them are now working their way through the process towards becoming comics for the NO-Earth site. If you h...

EDIT NOTICE: This post is updated as the conditions evolve. First we pay weekly. Very weakly. Seriously, this is on the first line to get this out of the way immediately. We are a CO-OP, which means each creator gets shares in the CO-OP based on their creative output to the site (Usually 4 shares to...
