• GRAPHIC NOVELS Note: for personal reasons, Nat has delayed these GN projects and we are not seeking artists for the forseeable future.
  • Roughly from 60 to 100 pages in length
  • Low (we mean it) advance against a fair royalty rate
  • Co-ownership of proeprty copyright and an equal share of all non-comics licensing control and money
  • Loose deadlines (given the low advance, there is no way to do this affordably as a full-time job.)
  • Projects in need of artists:
    • SS:humorous space opera
    • CT: broad, satirical adventure in a future urban setting
    • VU: Bouncy humor with some superheroesque characters
• CHAPTERS
  • Short stories, 4-16 pages, often individual chapters of larger works
  • No advance, but royalty payments starting from the very first copy sold
  • No control over the property or license, but you will be financially involved in all licensing profits
  • Projects in need of artists:
    • ID: dramatic downbeat human work with some superhero-related material Delayed
    • BC: requires a broad range of human styles, from bigfoot humor to dry realism
    • Licensable Bear™: Humor material, funny animal and humans together. See here for example.
