More specifically, Midnight Ink is a collection
of stories by various writers and artists with a variety of styles, which
is published once every two months. Contributors are not expected to
submit replicas of mainstream comic books and we don't expect the book to
be full of Stan Lee wannabe's. We prefer something different; different
style types, different storylines, different formats. Midnight Ink is for anyone who can write and/or draw
sequential art/graphic novel material. The stories can be based on
homeless vampires taking over the world
or the philosophies of extraterrestrial plant life
being shipped to mining camps on a dusty, yellow planet in a foreign
galaxy. There are almost no limits to the kinds of stories that
can/will be published in the book. We DO NOT accept stories that appear to
condone racism, homophobia, sexism, or porn.
This does not mean that your story can't contain them, it just means that
we will not accept a submission that portrays those kinds of things in a
positive light.
There are 4 different types of submissions
that Midnight Ink publishes:
1. Serial- a story that has 2 or more episodes.
(between 5 and 10 pages long)
2. Feature- a story that has only 1 episode.
(between 5 and 15 pages long)
3. Filler- a one page strip or several one-page
strips centering on one story/theme.
(like comic strips; not necessarily funny)
4. Cover Art- Artwork, logos, and designs made
for the front and back cover of the book.
