Description:

For this swap, you will make a mini- comic. The theme is "A Day in the Life of..." and will depict a day in the life of a monster of your choice (ie. a vampire, mummy, werewolf, clown, your mother-in-law, etc).

Any medium is permitted, and the 'comic' moniker is a loose one; as long as the zine depicts a series of events, you're golden. You can draw, paint, alter, collage, etc. as long as there's some sort of progression of events, or "story."

Not sure what a mini-comic is? Its a tiny paper book. You make it out of one standard 8.5" x 11" piece of paper, folded all fancy-like. It has a total of 8 pages (including front and back cover). Please use paper at least the thickness of regular printer paper. Do not use anything extremely thin or fragile like tissue paper. Feel free to use colours other than white if you so desire.

You will be creating one comic for one partner.

As we all had to meet minimum swap and rating requirements to be in this group in the first place, I'm not going to require any here. To paraphrase many other swap coordinators in this group: everyone play nice. Don't flake or I will send a legion of the undead to point accusingly at you. Or eat your brains. Possibly both.

If you have any questions or concerns, leave a message below, or feel free to private message or email me.
