Make A Comic In 24 Hours, Get Famous In S.D.

Are you a budding comic creator? Are you looking to get famous? Well, not necessarily famous, but at least looking to have something impressive on your resume when you bring your stuff into a publisher to get it printed and distributed across the country? Well, then, Dear Readers, might I suggest that you look into the 24 Hour Comic Contest which will take place over at the University of South Dakota:

Artists will be given a theme, image or idea to use in a six- to eight-page comic book that must be completed within 24 hours.

During the contest, artists can leave but must return by 6 p.m. Saturday with a finished black and white or greyscale comic, reproducible within an 8- by 5-inch page.

Computers with Adobe CS software, scanners and printers will be available in the Graphics Lab, though contestants are free to create comics by any method, in any location.

The contest begins on February 29, and you can get more information (or even register) over here.

Comic of the Week

Northstar's Boyfriend Coming In January! You guys may recall I was a bit cranky about Northstar and his lack of lovin' about a year and a half ago. In fact, at the time, I issued a challenge to Marvel to get him a kiss by June 2009 or I would declare him not really gay. I have not forgotten about this. However, when the X-men moved to San Francisco this year, we were teased with the existence of what looked to be Northstar's boyfriend (and manager), so I delayed judgment until we could see more. Since then, Northstar hasn't had a lot of major appearances, as there have been about a thousand major crossover events in the Marvel universe in the last six months, and each one tends to disrupt the normal storyline for most books, including the many X-books. So I waited. Our patience seems to have been rewarded! Artist Tim Fish revealed on his blog that his upcoming story in Nation X #2 (which comes out in Jan.) is a story about Northstar, and will feature Kyle, his boyfriend in an 8-page story. I'm not sure if an actual kiss is in it, but it's implied that there is some lovin' going on. Check out some sketches of Northstar, Kyle, and Aurora below, and we'll keep you up to date when we get closer to Jan. NATION X #2 1/6/10 [TimFishWorks]...
