SUBMISSION SPECS
HOW DO YOU GET STARTED?

In order for you to be able to submit to the A.U.N. MAGAZINE, you need to BECOME A MEMBER OF THE AUN BY JOINING OUR MESSAGEBOARD.

You cannot submit to the magazine if you are not a member. Membership is free, and all your work is owned by you, no one here will try to steal anything from anyone. For exact rules on this, please see the messageboard.

Then from there, you need to meet with others that can use your skills. Work as a team to put out some sort of finished product to submit to the magazine.

WHAT DO YOU SUBMIT?

Since this is a comics magazine, we only publish comics in their traditional appearance:
The submission will be an 8 1/2" X 11" vertical comics page, cell number up to you.

Meaning, a Comic Book is this:

  • A STORY
  • ARTWORK: color or black and white - it's up to you.
So your submission will be:
  • An 8 1/2" X 11" vertical comics page, cell number up to you
  • Tell a story from start to end, well, as "end" as it can be on one page
  • Fully rendered artwork, fully pencilled & inked, color is optional and up to you.

WHAT YOU CANNOT SUBMIT:

NO PIN-UPS OR SAMPLE SCRIPTS WILL BE PUBLISHED IN THE MAGAZINE -
IT MUST BE FINISHED COMIC PRODUCT.

NO FAN FICTION FROM OTHER COMPANIES, ONLY ORIGINAL STORIES AND ARTWORK WILL BE CONSIDERED.

If you do not hold copyright on materials, you cannot use them.

This magazine's sole purpose, is to help 'undergrounders' get their product to the next level through digital distribution.

On the messageboard, it's up to you to make teams with others, pass artwork around, and talk about projects. There is an intricate PM (Personal Message) system, that allows you to collaborate behind the scenes, without broadcasting your work in open threads.

However, we encourage open comics discussion on threads as well. But the first and most strongest goal here, is to get your finished product to those that want to see it, via email.

There will be opportunities for a team to expand their one-page comic into a full 26-32 page digital comic book, we will be offering that down the road, as The AUN becomes a full digital publisher.
More on that as information becomes available.

LONG LIVE THE UNDERGROUND!

QUOTES:

"While a "hunger" to create comics is important to succeed - you must make sure not to allow that hunger to grow to desperation. Desperate people make mistakes, and some mistakes, once done, cannot be undone."
