Design sheet is fine.  But before you're ready to submit it please make sure not to cut off the feet.  It's important that your opponent be able to get the full profile.  On to comics.

I like this design a great deal.  Hope to see your entry soon.

The museum of natural history has these WEIRD rules about not touching exhibits...which really if they were so concerned theyd do a better job keeping them out of my reach...amirite?

Boo.  Everyone should just come to Boston.

I like it.  You have a good design sense.  It shows in Miwesa and in this character and I totally wanna battle you some day in the near future.  With names, my strategy would be to decide on a cultural heritage and look for a meaning that matches it.  (i.e. Usagi Tsukino, Japanese, literal meaning Rabbit of the Moon)  Or one of my favorites is to take names from popular myths or fiction (Cassandra, Ophelia, etc.)

I am joining with me and myself.  We gonna wreck y'all.

...what do you mean this isn't how it works?

The Outlawer The Vigilante

He was just a man going for a walk.  But then he was mugged for the money in his wallet.  And that was when the Outlawer was born, waging his one man war on crime.  Working out of his personal garage, the Outlawer builds big guns and high tech weaponry to aid him in his quest.  Using his rocket boots, he soars through the sky while dispensing explosive projectiles to destroy his foes.  His large shoulder pads are bulletproof and thus he is bulletproof.  All bullets will bounce off of his shoulder pads.  Beware evildoers!  You will be OUTLAWED.

Hey Dudes and Dudettes,
So we're about two weeks or less from my original deadline.  I hope there are people already working on their entries or still planning to.  If you need more time, we can work it out but I need to know.  So I'd like it if people who were planning on submitting would either post here or email me at WilliamDuel@gmail.com to tell me that you're doing an entry and an estimated page count and if you'll make it by the deadline or will need more time.  This project is near and dear to my heart so I'll do what it takes to make sure it succeeds. 

So I feel like I'm not doing a good enough job explaining what I am rejecting in terms of gore.  Like if you can pull off Bernie Wrightson levels of disgust and messed up then that's great, I love that


The stuff that I am actively avoiding is stuff that would be considered offensive.  Examples like Crossed.  Crossed is a comic series I hate and for the life of me I can't understand why it exists.  It is basically about Rape Zombies.  In one comic I had the misfortune of reading, the main character who is a serial killer amidst this rape zombie epidemic is casually stewing a woman's breast.  Do. Not. Want.  I don't want entries that could be considered torture porn, I don't want entries that are thinly veiled misogynist fantasies for dissecting women, I basically don't want ero guro for this.  All of that has it's fans and it's time and it's place but just not this book. 

I also feel like me saying PG-13 is giving people the wrong idea.  There is a lot you can get away with there.  It just doesn't need to be explicit.

Creepy.  Weird.  Horror. 
If any of that sets off some bells then I'm looking for you.  Some of you may know me as William Duel.  While to others, I am just William Duel.  But my friends call me Willy D.

I'm working on a horror comics anthology this summer and so I'm casting this open call out into the vast nethers of the internet.  I'm currently accepting submissions until September 1st, 2016.  I intend to publish a small print run on kickstarter when all is said and done.  So if you're interested or curious the full details and specs are listed at ye old Tumblr link below:

(It's late, will finish tomorrow)



Johnny Cool does not remember his past, nor his childhood nor his parents.  He doesn't remember because he was born yesterday.  Built with a patchwork body from various people and given mechanical arms, Johnny was simply born with innate knowledge and personality.  His genius creator is presumed missing or dead.  But Johnny isn't concerned about the past, but about defining his present and creating his future.  Using his gifts, he opened a small and modest private detective agency in order to make a living and to experience life by taking on any job no matter how big or small.  But on the side he must contend with a mysterious agency which seems to want to observe and capture him in order to figure out the secrets of his body.

His arms can become a hundred different gadgets or tools but many of them are unknown to Johnny to himself.  His arms seem to ignore the Law of Mass Conservation and he can create large and complex mechanisms.  He constantly wears his mask because it supplies him with environmental data and a link to his arms and their functions.  But he also wears it to hide his face which resembles a patchwork quilt just like his body which has various skin tones.  He's tougher and more durable than a normal person, presumably modified in order to support the weight and strain of his mechanical arms.  But he can still bleed and be hurt like a normal person.

Who wants an annihilation match against Miller's Judgment?  2-4 weeks

I'm sorry on second thought right now is not good.  A little down the road I will try this again.
