The Scienteers: Now Accepting Comics

Hey all, be sure to read this page to see how we can promote your work! If you’re a webcomic artist looking for an expanded audience, we’ll be glad to help!

To summarize though, from the forum blurb…

One of the features of The Scienteers website is the idea that we want to expose webcomics that may not be getting enough attention when they’re well done.

So, one of the goals was to find a way to promote people’s webcomics frequently, thus we have two methods at our disposal.

One, submit your news to us! You can either use the handy-dandy on-site form or you can e-mail us directly at thescienteers@gmail.com. We’ll be posting news and blurbs as frequently as we can, so don’t hesitate to get ahold of us!

Secondly, we’re going to be running contributed promotional webcomics on our site. Essentially, you can send us 1-3 page promotional stories for us to run on the site and promote your work! Maybe a behind the scenes look, or a non-canon gag, or maybe even a preview of a much larger storyline. We’ll be pleased to run them during certain periods. It’s much better than a text link and a banner ad, right? The format of the comics, as well as futher information can be found on the comic submission page.

So, help The Scienteers help you. Send us news and comics so we can spread the word about your work!

So, be sure to take a look and try sending us a comic to run!

Just got this in from the awesome Skoolmunkee over at Drunk Duck.

My cooker is broken! :[

How are you? Good? That’s good. Good!

OK guys, I’ll tell you something: I’ve been naughty. I’ve had lots of PQs for newsposts for a while now and been too lazy to make the newspost.

I know, I’m a disappointment to us all. :[

So, let’s get to it, shall we? I promise to get to the point! The nominations for the Web Comics Choice Awards are out, and there’s a couple of Drunk Duckers on there! Namely The Dreamer by comic_chic, and Templar Arizona by Spike! If you’re a webcomic creator, you can register on their site to vote- so why not support your co-ducks, eh?

RDraconis is having a contest for More to Life which would be perfect for folks who like clothes and character designs - more details here!

Cake for those who turn 25, namely Organization Infinite by flapjack1995; Legend of Zelda Hyrule is Screwed by zaneeba_slave; Chuck Norris Against the World by Eduds; BLNT: Synchronicity (a prequel to the original BLNT) by blntmaker, featuring recaps and profiles!

Turning 100 are Pokemon Town by Poke Alster (and will be having dramatic changes); Cancerous AIDS by BreakElemental; Philly by Ryan McLelland, featuring a crossover with Rich Bernatovech’s Sentinels!

At 75 is MAG-ISA by kyupol; and Shades by DAJB, featuring major masked-figure plot reveals!

Ultimate X by Frogman is 150 pages old!

Turning 175 is Grin-n-Spirit by ghostrunner!

At an amazing 200 pages is Fred
Peterson The Mighty Warlord - Book 1
by LanceDanger; and The Lost Chapters of Megaman by Cryosis!

And finishing up (no more updates!) is the once-featured Commedia dell’Arte by Litindir, who has new projects on the way according to the creator comments…

Thanks Skoolmunkee! I should mention she is the duly elected DD reperesentive to The Scienteers, so we’ll be sharing their news and milestones here, so expect frequent DD updates!

Next, we have a couple of things from the inbox!

We’ve had a couple of people eager to submit their comics, so once again I’d like to direct you guys to the guidelines. In case your submissions don’t meet them. We’d like to direct you to his comics Crazy Duck and Billy Johnson and his Duck are Explorers! The comics that Crazyduck (I wonder if he likes ducks??) sent in didn’t quite match the guidelines, but we’ll plug him anyway! That’s just the sort of folks we are around here!

While we’re at it, we better promote Brynn’s deviantART page. His submission didn’t quite meet the guidelines, but his art deserves a look and I hope to see some comics of his show up!
