Attention Creators! Mad Cave Studios is looking for you!

Mad Cave Studios Talent Search 2018

Independent comic book publisher, Mad Cave Studios, is proud to announce our first ever nationwide talent search! We are looking for a maximum of 4 writers and 4 artists to work on 4 original and unannounced projects from the minds inside the Mad Cave. Each winner will be compensated on a “per page” basis and employment will be on a “work for hire” basis. This search is specifically for diverse, undiscovered talent with a unique voice that has never worked with or been distributed by a major publisher.

By running this talent search we are hoping to give aspiring creators the opportunity that many people can only dream of; working on a published comic book!

Each submission should be based on one of two Mad Cave comics: Battlecats or Midnight Task Force. Each creator can send one submission for each title, but keep in mind that the project you could potentially be working on will not be the same one you submitted.

Note: To those who choose to submit an entry for only Battlecats; any series that you may potentially be working on will not feature anthropomorphic creatures.

The contest begins on July 14th, 2018 and runs through September 14th, 2018. Every entrant will be considered by each member of editorial at Mad Cave Studios and the winners will be announced during New York Comic Con on Saturday October 5th, 2018. If you are not selected this year, don’t worry, we will be running this talent search again next year. So put your proverbial “nose to the grindstone” and hone your craft!
