Title: london based writer seeks artist for gritty urban 'super hero' comic
Post by: mark hekate on 12 June, 2014, 05:44:02 PM

I am a London based writer seeking a comic artist to assist on a graphic novel. Have got the beginning, middle and end sorted and have started a storyboard but i believe the best comics are created when the writer and artist are in sync from day 0. This will be a labour of love, I do actually draw myself but have a very specific vision for the graphics and its not my style . The story revolves around ethnic tensions in east london, european vs. persian black magic, a celebrity paedophile-killing vigilante and a junkie, pyrokinetic cop amongst other things, looking for jamie hewlett meets mike mcmahon meets street art. or sin city meets hellblazer!

Dare I ask what's your art budget?

now there is the rub, unfortunately the budget is non existent, which is what i meant by a labour of love! this is something my partner in crime would need to believe in, a leap of faith as it were. :-\

my friend runs a charity called artcore there is a possibility of getting an interest free loan or even better a grant to pay for the artists time
