<p> Here are the submission guidelines…</p>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-WPGgQ8SYjUL1t3IJMyhw7UazV-1voAEMpDgtxhW2yMrgdyn_nOL87cwupG_1RALuQrQjOxOzWzr2Pq5WncqngW1Oz2YQjyYIk54-9_7wZAmhUKvIJY7Azz2LJbnFb043nO6VBVR6qrs/s1600/ReaperGhost2.png" rel="lightbox[3502]" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="641" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-WPGgQ8SYjUL1t3IJMyhw7UazV-1voAEMpDgtxhW2yMrgdyn_nOL87cwupG_1RALuQrQjOxOzWzr2Pq5WncqngW1Oz2YQjyYIk54-9_7wZAmhUKvIJY7Azz2LJbnFb043nO6VBVR6qrs/s320/ReaperGhost2.png" width="128" /></a></div>
<p>Submissions should be horror orientated and must be weird or spooky to make the final cut.</p>
<p>We are mainly looking for completed comic strips between 1-7 pages in
length. Anything already completed is far more likely to make it into
the comic.</p>
<p>Script submissions should also preferably be around 1-7 pages in length.</p>
<p>Eerie illustrations and artwork along with interesting horror/comic
articles, scary short stories, petrifying poems or anything just plain
creepy will also be considered.</p>
<p>To get an idea of the sort of stuff we’re after, you can <b><a href="http://www.backfromthedepths.co.uk/hallowscream/" target="_blank">download previous issues of Hallowscream here.</a></b></p>
<p>One additional stipulation, same as last year…</p>
<p><b style="font-size: x-large;">IMPORTANT : No stories about global pandemics, please! </b>Stories
containing the living dead are allowed, but the E.C. comics-style
vengeful revenants are preferable to the contagion-spreading George
Romero types. The last thing we need right now is a comic full of
nothing but tales of how difficult it is to find toilet paper during a
zombie apocalypse, (don’t pretend you didn’t think about it). First and
foremost we’re producers of escapism (quite icky, gruesome horrible
escapism at times, but escapism nonetheless), and we feel it’s a good
idea to lay off certain storylines at least until such time as current
events have settled down a bit. I’m sure you’ll understand where we’re
coming from.</p>
<p>If you’re looking to illustrate something, get in contact and we’ll
give you details of available scripts to see if anything suits your
fancy.</p>
<p>We’ll also consider material previously published elsewhere, as long as the contributors own the copyright.</p>
<p>Completed artwork can be either colour or black and white, and should preferably be <b>A4 (21cm x 29.7cm) 300 dpi jpeg or png</b>.</p>
<p>Submissions can be sent to <b>merjeagles@yahoo.co.uk</b> or <b>ghastlymcnasty@backfromthedepths.co.uk</b></p>
<p>As this is a non-profit, small press publication, contributors will
not be paid but they will retain copyright on any material submitted.</p>Tim Westhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00101570265251964406noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7553675815768886525.post-17328338674215092352021-03-21T02:00:00.001-07:002021-03-21T02:00:30.323-07:00It's 2021<p>With the pandemic still lingering like a bad smell in a lift I've been trying to keep my foot in the comics game while dealing with someone turning real-world work up to 11. </p><p> Writing has taken an immense hit in productivity but I still get involved with comic production via lettering for other comic creators and living vicariously through their success. It's not the same but it's the best I can manage for now. </p><p> Once such project is Mythica by <a href="https://www.actionline-studios.com/" target="_blank">Actionline Studios</a>. I was contact by Matt Campbell, CEO of Actionline, to pick up the torch of lettering part 7 of his epic tale, currently smashing it on <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mythicacomic/mythica-issue-7?ref=discovery&term=mythica">Kickstarter</a>.

<p>It's a pleasure to work for a creator who has their marketing game on fleek. Matt knows how to make the best of Kickstarter and is very proactive it promoting his product. I'm hoping I'll be lettering much more for Actionline in the future.</p>Tim Westhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00101570265251964406noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7553675815768886525.post-75560557700928045532020-12-13T10:51:00.001-08:002020-12-13T10:51:09.813-08:00Another Logo<p> Here's a new logo design I've just completed for a comic pitch.

The centralised and updated website/hero page has been helpful in getting loads of new comic related jobs. It's been a week of logos - 2 for upcoming comics and one for a comic publisher. I'll also be assisting on comic lettering duties for one of them!<br /><br />The logo jobs are cool as they need doing relatively quickly but signing on as someone's letterer means a long term commitment that might not even start for several months. All good fun though.</div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;" trbidi="on"><span></span><span></span>Comic Book Logo 1</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLhDWFqbb415X252nyjCJMTzXnXkPg0Ptkc0rxI8JuHkpKL2C8iFkp9xbcQt__18GaN9e7ksbBWxqPhJLH7IbfWY859XA6onx6i8pdNZTBGVcJta4AEpayojwEQY1-tDfCd3GNcZdJovlJ/s10234/Plainer+Jane+Logo+Single+-+Black.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="7210" data-original-width="10234" height="439" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLhDWFqbb415X252nyjCJMTzXnXkPg0Ptkc0rxI8JuHkpKL2C8iFkp9xbcQt__18GaN9e7ksbBWxqPhJLH7IbfWY859XA6onx6i8pdNZTBGVcJta4AEpayojwEQY1-tDfCd3GNcZdJovlJ/w625-h439/Plainer+Jane+Logo+Single+-+Black.png" width="625" /><br /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Comic Book Logo 2<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLhDWFqbb415X252nyjCJMTzXnXkPg0Ptkc0rxI8JuHkpKL2C8iFkp9xbcQt__18GaN9e7ksbBWxqPhJLH7IbfWY859XA6onx6i8pdNZTBGVcJta4AEpayojwEQY1-tDfCd3GNcZdJovlJ/s10234/Plainer+Jane+Logo+Single+-+Black.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhf0VHMPC5Mil8T_dEtD3qGDob04NMRcpC8iBpHKrqVOcA-ZIyVDuz5KaG63r1v9ke0Hxf1zwKZf2TyT436oFLEbzcBU159Qra5rRv0RsGaXE6Pc2x1l_xY1Cm5tclnz4kbnLwNyJQuBxqN/s1285/Logo+Final.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="683" data-original-width="1285" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhf0VHMPC5Mil8T_dEtD3qGDob04NMRcpC8iBpHKrqVOcA-ZIyVDuz5KaG63r1v9ke0Hxf1zwKZf2TyT436oFLEbzcBU159Qra5rRv0RsGaXE6Pc2x1l_xY1Cm5tclnz4kbnLwNyJQuBxqN/w500-h266/Logo+Final.png" width="500" /><br /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Comic Publisher Logo</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDv2HDnru7VY2SKSfOlnO5weTROOS06MawCik9XmHqDxB7tLPoaO4TKTN7KiyvTt3rR8TUwwFHI4UbMzPL3fbKwWJEkCQvGg4TH4MsbqIoGUpS_TC-YfRU3UkOflExKBsbiQvF4agSw31B/s3561/broken+face+on+white+black+bg.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3561" data-original-width="2534" height="625" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDv2HDnru7VY2SKSfOlnO5weTROOS06MawCik9XmHqDxB7tLPoaO4TKTN7KiyvTt3rR8TUwwFHI4UbMzPL3fbKwWJEkCQvGg4TH4MsbqIoGUpS_TC-YfRU3UkOflExKBsbiQvF4agSw31B/w445-h625/broken+face+on+white+black+bg.png" width="445" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhf0VHMPC5Mil8T_dEtD3qGDob04NMRcpC8iBpHKrqVOcA-ZIyVDuz5KaG63r1v9ke0Hxf1zwKZf2TyT436oFLEbzcBU159Qra5rRv0RsGaXE6Pc2x1l_xY1Cm5tclnz4kbnLwNyJQuBxqN/s1285/Logo+Final.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br /></div>

I'm going to post a few lettering samples of the jobs I've been working on. Not going to name the comic or who they're for as I don't want to clog up Google if someone searches for these comics later by name.<br />

Check these out. From a comic lettering job I landed through a word of mouth recommendation. Sweet.<br />

So...stage 2 of 2020 is in full swing. I've fleshed out the <a href="https://www.dangergeek.co.uk/">website</a> a bit, adding sections for Comic Book Lettering and Logo Design and I'll be adding Editing and Kickstarter Video Production as additional services too.<br /><br />I've started posting unpaids ads on Facebook and Instagram for the existing services and I've got a pretty solid response. I've got several lettering jobs, logo creation and video production which I'll post a bit more about soon.<br />
<br />
I'm slowly working on a course comic lettering comics and have done several samples which you can see on my <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdfnfSUVKaAN4wuJoE0_gWQ">Youtube channel.</a><br />
<br />
Overall goal is to fund and support writing projects through other comic projects. It was pretty easy getting short stories publishes for free but longer form is going to take some financial resources.</div>

It’s the time of the year when we at <a href="http://www.backfromthedepths.co.uk/"><strong>Back From The Depths</strong></a> are once again looking for contributors for our freaky free annual pdf horror comic, <strong>HALLOWSCREAM</strong>, <b><span style="font-size: medium;"><i>but</i></span></b>,
(just in case you haven’t being paying attention), the planet’s gone a
bit mental this year and we’re going to have to add an additional
stipulation.<br />
Here are the submission guidelines…<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-WPGgQ8SYjUL1t3IJMyhw7UazV-1voAEMpDgtxhW2yMrgdyn_nOL87cwupG_1RALuQrQjOxOzWzr2Pq5WncqngW1Oz2YQjyYIk54-9_7wZAmhUKvIJY7Azz2LJbnFb043nO6VBVR6qrs/s1600/ReaperGhost2.png" rel="lightbox[3481]" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="641" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-WPGgQ8SYjUL1t3IJMyhw7UazV-1voAEMpDgtxhW2yMrgdyn_nOL87cwupG_1RALuQrQjOxOzWzr2Pq5WncqngW1Oz2YQjyYIk54-9_7wZAmhUKvIJY7Azz2LJbnFb043nO6VBVR6qrs/s320/ReaperGhost2.png" width="128" /></a></div>
<br />
Submissions should be horror orientated and must be weird or spooky to make the final cut.<br />
We are mainly looking for completed comic strips between 1-7 pages in
length. Anything already completed is far more likely to make it into
the comic.<br />
Script submissions should also preferably be around 1-7 pages in length.<br />
Eerie illustrations and artwork along with interesting horror/comic
articles, scary short stories, petrifying poems or anything just plain
creepy will also be considered.<br />
To get an idea of the sort of stuff we’re after, you can <strong><a href="http://www.backfromthedepths.co.uk/hallowscream/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">download previous issues of Hallowscream here.</a></strong><br />
<br />
Now here comes that additional stipulation…<br />
<b style="font-size: x-large;">IMPORTANT : No stories about global pandemics, please! </b>Stories
containing the living dead are allowed, but the E.C. comics-style
vengeful revenants are preferable to the contagion-spreading George
Romero types. The last thing we need right now is a comic full of
nothing but tales of how difficult it is to find toilet paper during a
zombie apocalypse, (don’t pretend you didn’t think about it). First and
foremost we’re producers of escapism (quite icky, gruesome horrible
escapism at times, but escapism nonetheless), and we feel it’s a good
idea to lay off certain storylines at least until such time as current
events have settled down a bit. I’m sure you’ll understand where we’re
coming from.<br />
<br />
If you’re looking to illustrate something, get in contact and we’ll
give you details of available scripts to see if anything suits your
fancy.<br />
<br />
We’ll also consider material previously published elsewhere, as long as the contributors own the copyright.<br />
<br />
Completed artwork can be either colour or black and white, and should preferably be <strong>A4 (21cm x 29.7cm) 300 dpi jpeg or png</strong>.<br />
<br />
Submissions can be sent to <strong>merjeagles@yahoo.co.uk</strong> or <strong>ghastlymcnasty@backfromthedepths.co.uk</strong><br />
As this is a non-profit, small press publication, contributors will
not be paid but they will retain copyright on any material submitted.<br />

I certainly am!<br />
<br />
In January of this year I spent 5 days in Nashville, Tennessee, being yelled at by the world's leading motivational speakers, social media influencers, life-coaches and inspirational icons. It was a astonishing few days that have had a lasting and positive effect on me.<br />
<br />
The event was called Funnel Hacking Live, a fully American conference in which I spent the time hanging out with 5000 highly motivated entrepreneurs. I leaned a lot in over those few days and came home with a vision of how I can apply my new knowledge to the industry we love so well - comics.<br />
<br />
So in 2020 I'll be upping my game. This will begin with a brand new website and a refresh for this blog. I'm going to be attending comic conventions, as a seller and not just a buyer, and will be promoting my own brand much more vigorously. I'll be applying new tricks and techniques to my marketing my products, developing comic creation courses, branching out in to video content, pushing forward with services to the comic community, and generally kicking ass on all levels possible.<br />
<br />
Shit's about to get real.</div>

This will be the last post of the year so we might as well finish with an overview of 2019. I've not been super busy on this blog, making only 14 posts, but it has been a super busy year all round, not just in the comics department but in real life too!<br />
<br />
Most significantly, a ran a <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/dangergeek/get-woke-1-a-conspiracy-comic-mini-series/description">Kickstarter for the first issue of Get Woke</a>, which achieved target and is now about to go to print. Really pleased with this although slightly disappointed it only squeezed past the finish line by a meagre £8. Still, we made it! This means I'll now have a physical copies of both Get Woke AND Killer Bytes, my first anthology. Which means I have product that I can take to conventions and sell. <br />
<br />
The time spend working on Get Woke and the subsequent campaign pretty much consumed all spare time set aside for writing new comics. I've been fairly busy in the lettering department, adding words to 3 comics for the <a href="https://dangergeekuk.blogspot.com/2019/08/tales-from-udderverse.html">Tales from the Udderverse</a> anthology and a paid lettering job for a comic about a psychotic elephant titled 'Cello'.<br />
<br />
I do love lettering comics but I much prefer writing them. The idea pile has continued to grow throughout 2019 but turning those ideas in to scripts has almost ground to a halt. For the first time in its 11 years of publication, I didn't manage to write a story for my own anthology <a href="https://dangergeekuk.blogspot.com/2019/10/hallowscream-11.html">Hallowscream</a>. Fairly annoyed at myself for that.<br />
<br />
Make more time for writing is definitely the lesson to be learned from the last 12 months. I believe I will actually need to set aside a block of time in my daily schedule, to make sure I do nothing but write in that time.<br />
<br />
Anyway, have a great New Year and watch this space in 2020.</div>

I've added a shop to the blog using something called Ecwid. Kinda useful and easy if you have less than 10 products and don't need digital. Too expensive if you do.<br />
<br />
They'll be 2 products to buy: the print versions of Get Woke #1 and Killer Bytes #1. You can visit the shop <a href="https://dangergeekuk.blogspot.com/p/shop.html">here</a>.</div>

Clicking the launch button was intense but it's done. Ladies and gents, the <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/dangergeek/get-woke-1-a-conspiracy-comic-mini-series">Get Woke Kickstarter</a> is now LIVE.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Imagine a world in which ALL conspiracy theories are true. A world of
secret societies, shadow governments, aliens, monsters, and the
supernatural. No need to imagine too hard, that's the world YOU live in
today. It's all real and it always has been.<br />
<br />
And if such evil exists in the world, which it does, humanity is
going to need a very special team of heroes to protect it from the
horrors that lurk behind the curtain of our false reality.<br />
<br />
Don't believe in conspiracies? You need to...GET WOKE<br />
<br />
------------------------------<br />
<br />
After nearly 2 years of production the first issue is completely done and I'm now looking to raise the funds to get the comic printed. I've gone with a fairly low target as I don't want to not make the goal, hopefully this doesn't put people off.<br />
<br />
Please check it out and if you can pledge a bit of cash. <br />

After a long hard slog we're finally ready to go live with the Kickstarter for Get Woke. You can take a quick shifty at the pre-launch page <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/dangergeek/get-woke-1-a-conspiracy-comic-mini-series" target="_blank">here</a>. It's not much to look at at the moment but the actual Kickstarter campaign page has all the details you need about the project included a very interesting video.<br />
<br />
It's pretty nerve-wracking displaying yourself online for the world to see. Will I make the target? What if no one backs it? These are just a few of the questions you'll ask yourself pre-launch and probably even more so post-launch, until the pledges come in.<br />
<br />
These concerns have led to me choosing a low target to achieve funding. It's low because all the hard work is done and I'm just looking at covering printing costs. I just hope it's not too low that backers won't pledge once it makes the target.<br />
<br />
I'm also concerned about the potential IP fringement. Hopefully this is just paranoia. It is a comic about conspiracies after all.<br />
<br />
Here's a nice GIF that show some of the inner pages from the comic. Cool huh. <br />

I feel a bit dirty with this news. Not because of the result but because I failed to inform you, dear reader, that I had submitted <b>Get Woke</b> to <b>Image Comics</b>. I meant to post something about that experience and how it felt, but now you're only just learning that the submission has been rejected. At least I don't have the shame of looking back on such a positive pre-submission post and all the naive words of optimism is would have written about how the comic would <i>definitely</i> have been picked up.<br />
<br />
The rejection letter:<br />
<b><br /></b>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">

</div>
<div>
Even though it's probably just a standard auto-response, it still feels good to get a reply from someone like Eric Stephenson, and at least they did reply. Imagine the torture of NO response and they resulting nightmare of wondering if they even received the submission package!<br />
<br />
So, we pick ourselves up, brush ourselves down, and submit to some more publishers.</div>

Nothing gets a comic creator more excited than feasting their eyes on some page process porn. I've included a fine example below from my new comic Get Woke.

I think it captures the zaniness and gravity of the series quite well. I wanted to keep it text only for maximum impact of the words as I think the phrase itself is pretty damn hilarious. It's not just a name, it's an instruction as well.<br />

At last! It is done. After a year and a half of production I'm pleased to announce that <b>Issue 1 of Get Woke is now complete</b>. It's been a long process which has pretty much consumed most of my spare time (which ain't much) and really hampered any other comic creating tasks. But it's done. 36 pages are draw, coloured and lettered, and the cover is complete. No inners have been done yet but it really all depends what we are doing with the comic. I have an <b>amazing product</b>, now I've got to figure out the best way to sell it!<br />
<br />
Get Woke's awesome artist, <b>Kevin McCullough</b>, is keen to explore the <b>professional publishing</b> route so our first step will be to compile some pitch material (comic samples, synopses, etc) and send it to a few serious comic companies. I'm currently in the process of doing this but making sure I get it right is slowing me down. I've been waiting ages for the finished article and now it's arrived I'm all WTF do I do now. It's a new and exciting chapter.<br />
<br />
If pro-publishing fails we'll take the <b>Kickstarter</b> route. This has become a thoroughly acceptable way to release a comic and there are plenty of examples of success stories that give hope that we can achieve our goal of getting the comic out in to the big wide world.<br />
<br />
Whatever happens next is going to be thrilling. You're welcome to come along for the ride.</div>
