Published Writer Seeks Artist For Crime/Action Comic Pitch

Hi everyone,

My name is Michael Gordon and I am a published comics writer. Most recently I had a short story in the 'Out Of The Blue: A Collection Of Campfire Tales' anthology graphic novel from Stache Publishing.

Please check out my Tumblr for writing samples etc: http://michaelgordonwriter.tumblr.com/

A few months ago I advertised for an artist to collaborate with on a 4-issue undersea horror/sci-fi miniseries that is currently in production with a well known UK Indie publisher. I was successful in finding someone and that miniseries should, all being well, be published in late 2016/early 2017.

I have a few other stories that I want to develop and pitch to publishers in the period between finishing the last script for my miniseries and the eventual publication date.

I am seeking an artist for a crime/action/thriller 4 issue miniseries that I am developing. I have a pitch document written, as well as the first 8 script pages completed. I am now working on fleshing out an outline for the entire 4 issues.

For the pitch, we'd be needing those 8 script pages pencilled and inked, as well as potentially a cover (although that's not essential for every publisher's submission guidelines).

As of right now, drawing these initial pitch pages wouldn't be a paying gig. I'd love to be able to, but all my extra cash is going to my artist for the current miniseries in production. However, should the pitch be picked up by a publisher, obviously then the artist would be paid a page rate to continue on past those 8 pages and the project rights would be owned 50/50 between writer and artist.

If anyone is interested, please send me a PM or e-mail mikeonfireAThotmailDOTcom with samples of your work and I can send you the pitch document and script pages to see if you like the sound of the project.

Thanks!
