    I just got forwarded the following, I don't know anything else other then whats below so check the link for more information or contact info for the organizer.

    Graphic Novel: Machines, Miracles or Magic?

    Details:

    “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.”

    Arthur C. Clarke.

    The theme of this graphic novel is to get an illustrated take on spirituality, religion, science and everything in between. Participants are asked to contribute a 2,3 or 6 pages max story / comic strip about their opinions, beliefs, non beliefs, paranormal or scientific. The selected stories will be published in a limited edition graphic novel.

    The topic is quite wide so all ideas welcome no matter how bizarre, although in the event of a large amount of submissions, selections will have to be narrowed down. The end result will be a printed book based on the contributions.

    Technical:

    • Page size: 260mm high x 170mm wide

    • Submissions should be no more than 6 pages

    • The Graphic novel will be roughly48 pages plus cover (could increase, could decrease), so we would be looking for artwork submissions from 2, 4 and 6 page max in length

    • All artwork to be submitted in CMYK colour format

    • Stories must be original and the sole creation of the artist

    • Please submit artwork minus page numbers or signatures. All artist credits will be highlighted at the beginning of the book

    • Scans should be done at 300dpi

    • Deadline October 11th 2008
