iVerse, creators of the Comic Reader software, is looking for submissions from comic book hopefuls as well as established pros to post their comics to the iPhone/iPod Touch. All of the work published through iVerse is 100% creator owned. According to their submission guidelines, thee will NEVER ask the artists to give us a piece of your creations.
"Creators and Studios will be able to set the final prices on their titles, but we’re expecting most standard length titles to be around $.99, and we’re encouraging creators to give away the first issues of their titles to allow new readers who may not be familiar with comics, but are iPhone/iPod Touch owners, to give comics on the devices a try."
"With Digital Comics on the iPhone/iPod Touch we have access to a world wide audience, no printing costs or print run minimums, and it doesn’t take 3 months to get the title from in the catalog to on sale in a store. Each title will be featured as its own application in the App Store, and will be backed up onto the readers desktop or notebook computer each time they sync their device."
iVerse Media is currently discussing comic adaptions and new creations from a variety of industry professionals and studios, and as of today, is accepting submissions from new creators. Read their submission guidelines then call 254-366-0116 to set up and interview with iVerse Media.
