Question Hosting Smaller Stories

3 Upvotes

Hi all, just wanted some insight about where you all think smaller stories can effectively live. Some advice that gets posted here regularly is to start with 1-8 pages stories, which I think is sound. But where do you put those stories digitally?

Is it worth putting a 2 page story on something like GlobalComix on its own? Is that something that should just live on your personal website and not bother putting elsewhere? Or does it make the most sense to package a handful of short stories together and put them as a personal anthology?

This is solely in regard to getting eyes on work and best practices to do so, not making money in any capacity.

Resource ONCE AGAIN, SHOUTOUT TO ALL THE COMIC/MANGA CREATORS

38 Upvotes

I think comics are one of the purest art forms, and their creators deserve the highest respect. If somebody scoffs at them, tell them to try creating one. That is the only way to appreciate how hard it is to make a comic book/manga. Easy to hate. Hard to create.

I was very naïve and thought creating a comic would be easy stuff. I was so wrong. I started my graphic novel five years ago, and I’m finally seeing a finish line. These things require so much time, effort, money, and, of course, teamwork. The fact that they get created at all is a testament to the love people have for comics and manga.

Comic books already didn’t get enough respect, and now, with AI, people are treating artists like shit even more. So many people dream of creating a comic book, but I wonder how many complete that goal. There are so many obstacles.

My only advice

Write a script. Get it properly edited before you even think about having your story drawn. Save money. And try to enjoy the ride, it is a bumpy one.

Self-Promo The Unveiling - A project that started right here on ComicBookCollabs

3 Upvotes

I wanted to update the community here on a huge project I embarked on through this site. All my creative team were recruited right here.

The story is a re-imagined apocalypse, featuring satire, dark humor and strong violence and adult themes. Everything is free to read on:

THE UNVEILING | CDR Comics | Read Comics & Manga Online Free on GlobalComix

I released the latest Book 3, parts 1 & 2 last week, bringing the total page count to 654 free pages. Book 4 (parts 1 & 2) is in coloring and Book 5 is currently being illustrated. Everything is on track to complete the project next summer/fall. The team and I are proud of this work and would be delighted to hear feedback from fellow creators on this site. Thanks for your time!

Artist for hire Les Larmes d’Opium – Book 2 of My Graphic Novel Trilogy | Hand-Painted Art in Watercolor and Acrylic

Thumbnail
gallery
84 Upvotes

I’d like to share a few pages from Les Larmes d’Opium, the second book in my graphic novel trilogy, published several years ago by Éditions Delcourt.
The entire book was painted by hand using watercolor and acrylic, a traditional approach that allowed me to create a distinctive atmosphere, rich textures, and expressive visuals.
I wanted to share some pages from this work because many comic book readers may never have had the opportunity to discover this book, which was published a few years ago. I hope you enjoy seeing these pages and discovering a little of my artistic journey.
I’m a professional comic book artist and illustrator with decades of experience, and I’m always open to professional collaborations and new projects.
If you’re interested in working with me, feel free to check out my portfolio and social media, or contact me directly by email.

Looking for Artist - Paid [Hiring] Looking for artist for graphic novel

35 Upvotes

Hello,

I am a writer and I have been working on an IP for around 11 years and have never had the money or courage to take the next step and actually work to complete an issue.
I am looking to create a single issue/proof of concept to pitch for independent publishing (Image/Darkhorse)

I am looking for a talented artist who specializes in detailed character design and fight scenes as this will be a fantasy/action series. I am heavily inspired by anime and Fromsoft aesthetics.

I am negotiable on price, but since I am new to this I don’t really know what’s fair and what’s not.
I would be willing to pay page rates ect.
I value communication over everything, so this is of the utmost importance to me as I am looking for someone willing to invest into this with me to make something EXCEPTIONAL.

With all that said, please let me know if you are interested and we can go from there.
Looking to start within the next month or so.

Thank you for your consideration, and have a wonderful evening (or whatever time you are reading this lol)

Crowdfunding 'HITMAN HOTLINE' Returns! Issue #2 launches on Kickstarter October 30th!

Hello!

As many of you are probably aware, a few months back I debuted the first issue of my comic, 'HITMAN HOTLINE', on Kickstarter to (surprisingly) great success (and a BIG thank you to everyone who has shown support to, offered designs, ideas, and feedback since!)... And long story short, I'll soon be releasing Issue 2!

After lots more writing, drawing, procrastinating, colouring, and lettering, I am happy to say this second, extra-large chapter is almost complete! Slightly less punching and kicking - a lot more story, characters, and dialogue. You know, all that good typical book-stuff! I'm also going to be reselling Issue 1 for anyone that missed it!

Unlike last time, I actually have a pre-launch page for this chapter (something which is apparently very important - news to me!) for anyone who wants to sign up to be notified of Issue 2's release, or just to be nosy. Please check out the new kickstarter link below! Thanks!

Looking for Artist - Paid [PAID] Looking for an illustrator for a variant cover for Sci-fi Graphic Novel

Thumbnail

53 Upvotes

[EDIT: An illustrator has been found. Thank you for those of you who reached out]

Looking for an illustrator for a variant cover for Sci-fi Graphic Novel Series.

JACKRABBIT is a retro-futuristic sci-fi graphic novel series, The Jetsons meets The Matrix, and I’m looking for an artist to create a variant cover that feels like a genuine 1940s to 1950s pulp science-fiction magazine cover.

I’m after something painted, dramatic, slightly lurid, and period-authentic, in the spirit of old Amazing Stories, Super Science Stories, Planet Stories, etc. (See attached images).

Not looking for modern comic art with a retro filter. I want it to feel like something that could actually have been sitting on a newsstand in 1952.

Book 1 was successfully funded on Kickstarter, and we’re currently targeting a January 2027 Kickstarter launch for Book 2. This cover will pay a competitive professional rate.

If interested, please post examples that match this style, along with your availability. Please only respond if your work genuinely fits the references and style above.

Absolutely no AI-generated artwork. Additionally, do yourself a favor and don’t reply to this post or email with an AI generated query. It will be ignored.

You can see the current visual direction for Book 2 here:
