Welcome to ComiContest!, the best place to win using your drawing skills!

The contest as a whole is simple enough: You draw an at-least-one-page comic, submit it, and await the judging. The comic will be based on one idea per month, listed below. Read on for prizes and rules.

I'm sure you're wondering what could be so special to win from ComiContest!, right? Well...

1st place: Something off your wishlist.
2nd place: 1,500 gold.
3rd place: Something green.
Runner-ups: 25 gold apiece.

The rules are simple:
[oo1.] Submit all entries to me, blazestonefire656, with the PM titled ComiContest!'s next winner!
[oo2.] No submitting more than one comic per idea. More than one a month is alright as long as they're for different ideas.
[oo3.] No flaming or bashing other peoples' work, if you don't win, etc.
[oo4.] Most importantly: Do NOT change your wishlist in any way, shape, or form should you enter! If I find out you changed your list to only include extremely expensive items, you will be disqualified and you will not be permitted to enter again unless you redeem yourself. Now if there happens to be something on there you don't want anymore, and you're afraid you make receive it, it's alright if you take that off. I WILL BE KEEPING A LIST. NO CHANGES!

These are the ideas that the comics will be based off of. You do not need to make one for each, just pick one you like and go with it. Also, you may submit one for a future idea, but you will have to wait until that month for the judging. Please no duplicate storylines. If I feel you've stolen someone's idea, you wll be banned from the contest.

So far, I'm the only judge, but if another crew member would like to help, send me a PM.
The submissions will be judged on storyline, length, colors, and, of course, skill. I would like the entries to be colored, so if you can't do that, give it to someone who can. Just make sure you credit them for their work. (If anyone needs me to, I can color. [That's my favorite part, and the only thing I'm good at.] My coloring your submission will not affect the scores you receive at all. I'm not bias. Just scan it and send it to me; I'll print, color, re-scan, and send it back.)

The winners will be put here, and will be seperated by year, then month and idea. I hoping to have this up for quite a few years, so we'll have a nice big list here, ok?
