When applying to the zine, contributors will be asked to indicate which characters they are willing and not willing to draw. Upon acceptance, contributors will be assigned one or more character, and will have to pitch several ideas to the mod team with that character as the focus (other characters may be included). Ideas approved by the mod team will be the ones which contributors will create. There will be regular progress check-ins each month, to ensure that contributors are on track to complete their piece(s) by the end of the creation period.Other queries can be directed to our Google Form.
