SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Kymera Press is a small press so our needs are limited. However, we are always on the lookout for great artists for our next project.
Kymera Press is all about telling great stories, so we are always looking for artists who can do that. Whilst we don´t expect you to be currently professionally working in comics – Kymera Press is happy to showcase work of artists currently working outside the industry – we are looking for individuals who will deliver a professional standard of work. All submissions must conform to the standards below.
WHAT WE´RE LOOKING FOR
Kymera Press wants to be able to publish a wide variety of comics from a wide variety of genres – science-fiction, thriller, mystery, horror, adventure – and we want to work with committed writers and artists to help achieve that. However there are some styles of comic that we´re not interested in: Viz–style humour strips, parodies of existing works and sex comics.
WRITERS
We’re not looking for original ideas at this point, though we may be open to that in the future. If you are interesting in writing for us, you can either submit a fully scripted short story of no more than 5-8 finished comic pages in length. If you have an example of work you´ve already completed or had published elsewhere then by all means send that as your sample. All scripts must be sent via email to the address below and must be sent as attachments.
ARTISTS
It´s not all about splash pages! Artists should submit no more than 5-8 pages of sequential storytelling in any genre which demonstrates your understanding of the comics format. The submitted pages must ideally be a part of the same narrative, but please send separate pages if you want to demonstrate your range of styles. If you have an example of work you´ve already completed or had published elsewhere then by all means send that as your sample. All artwork must be sent via email in jpeg/tiff format to the address below, and please keep it below 10mb. We’re also happy to follow a link to your deviantart page or similar online gallery .
LETTERERS
If you are interesting in lettering for us, you can either submit a fully scripted short story of no more than 5-8 finished comic pages in length. If you have an example of work you´ve already completed or had published elsewhere then by all means send that as your sample. All scripts must be sent via email to the address below and must be sent as attachments. Also include links to your portfolio so we can see your range of style.
COLOURISTS
If you would like to be considered for freelance color work at Kymera press, please send us a link to your online portfolio. At this time interested only in hiring digital colorists. If you want to email us some small-ish thumbs of your work that’s fine, please keep the file size reasonable.
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER YOU SEND IN YOUR SUBMISSION
If we have an immediate interest in your work you will be contacted. If anyone on the Kymera staff has even the slightest interest in your work your submission will be kept on file for future reference. No immediate response from us does not necessarily constitute a rejection. That said, if we like your stuff and have a place for you, you will hear from us.
Thanks for your interest in submitting material to Kymera Press.
