Do you accept unsolicited submissions?

Short answer, no. Longer answer: due to potential copyright issues, it's better that Corrosive doesn't look at cold-submissions. Keep working though!


 

How do you make a comic book?

Well, there's no set way or formula. The way Scrüz does it is different than the way Micah does it. There are resources that can help you figure out YOUR way of combining stories, pictures and text. Here's some now (by no means a complete list):

What materials do you use?

Pencils, pens, paper, paint, Photoshop, Manga Studio, charcoal, found objects, ledger paper...use anything you need to make your comic.


 

Where do your ideas come from?

Canada.


 

How do I make my idea into a comic?

If you write, write and keep writing and don't stop until you figure it out. The same thing applies to people who pencil, ink, paint, letter, etc. At a certain point, you have to abandon concern for making it "perfect" and just go for it. Making, not thinking about making, makes things.


 

I'm a retailer...how do I get Corrosive Comics' titles in my store?

Please contact our sales manager Shawn Cruz scruz[at]corrosivecomics[dot]com. Or see our "RETAILERS" tab on the Corrosive Comics website.
