WINNER NAMED IN SHADOWLINE’S WHO WANTS TO CREATE A SUPER-HEROINE CONTEST
Press Release
With over 5,000 entries to go through, five finalists were announced in what may have been comics’ first contest for writers! For the first time ever the fans were allowed to choose their favorite, which will go on to be published through Shadowline as 3-issue mini-series, drawn by fan-favorite artist Franchesco!
The clear winner was Tom Arguello’s Incredible Journey:
Journey Dominguez was a normal teenage girl with big dreams living in a world full of superheroes. All she ever wanted was to be one of them. Everything changes one day when she finds a strange necklace on the street. She puts it on only to find out that she cannot take it off, and that it gives her the ability to summon a temporary superpower for whatever situation she’s in. There’s only one catch; every time she uses a power, she is really stealing it from one of the Superheroes, leaving them permanently powerless and the world increasingly defenseless. All Journey Dominguez ever wanted to be was a super hero. Now, she must convince the world she is not a super villain!Shadowline Editor-in-Chief Kris Simon and President Jim Valentino would like to congratulate Tom and the four runners-up for their participation over these last 3 months:
1. Kat Cahill: I Hate Galaxy Girl
2. Dirk Manning: Hope
3. C. Edward Sellner: I’ll Fly Away
4. Kristopher Waddell: ChallengerBut it doesn’t end here! Over the next several months we will be showing the entire process of creating a comic from plot to script, from layouts to finished art giving an insiders view into making a comic step-by-step, warts and all (another first?) with a lot of help from the artist, Franchesco! It should prove to be an educational experience for anyone interested in making comics.
Please join us at www.kris-korner.com in the ‘Who Wants to Create a Super Heroine’ forum and watch as the book progresses through its many stages.
Shadowline would like to thank all of those who submitted, voted, our final five and yes, even all those who nitpicked, griped and were otherwise rude…at least we got you talking and hopefully, thinking. And now, you’ll excuse us as we’re about to embark on an Incredible Journey!
