Greetings Sup Forums! Back in 2012, various anons from here joined forces to put together an indie comic anthology called Premier Pulp. We released eight issues and ran until 2014, when it went on a long hiatus. However, the time is right for the project to return!
September 5th is the entry deadline for the upcoming issue, and in order to help rebuild our readership and find newer contributors, I will be storytiming several comics from the issues for everyone to read.
More information about the project will be available in the following posts.
If you want to get involved and contribute something to the upcoming 2016 issue, get in touch with us at our Discord server: discord.gg/0tD9RZu8RQWWHeds
You can get onto Discord through your browser and a desktop client. We used to have an irc chat but it's dead nowadays.
Our main website is currently under renovations, so I'll direct everyone to our other sites.
Q: So what the hell is this? A: An indie comic anthology that got started on Sup Forums back in 2012. The goal is to get beginners making comics and to help people team up to work on making comics.
Q: How does this magazine work? A: We run on a deadline system over a period of several months. There's an entry deadline, two progress deadlines, and a final deadline. Currently we're looking at September 5th for the next entry deadline.
Q: Do contributors get paid for this? A: Nope. I understand if not everyone is willing to do something like this without being paid, but every contributor I've talked to has said it's helped them greatly to becoming better at making comics.
Q: What kind of comics do you accept? A: Read this blog post: premierpulp.wordpress.com/submission-details/ Pay attention to the technical requirements in particular, we want the comics to run to be uniform in format.
Q: Do you have to both draw and write to get something in the magazine? A: Nope, you can be just a writer and have someone else draw it for you. Many past contributions were team efforts. Many artists feel their writing isn't great, so teaming up with someone confident in their abilities can help them a lot.
Q: What skill level do I need to be at to contribute? A: We welcome complete beginners. If you've never made a comic before, work with us and see how much you can learn. I can't guarantee we'll run your comic but you'll be able to ask for feedback from everyone and our staff during the process.
