Announcing the Student’s Competition Finalists

Negative Space Comics is excited to announce the Student’s Comic Book Writing Competition Finalists!

We received submissions from school all over the country, and yes, all over the world! The scripts submitted were bold, diverse, creative, and new! Let us warn all you comic book writers right now — there are some amazing talents coming up! Everyone better step their game up!

Thanks to our Judges for this competition. We are forever-amazed by the generosity and commitment comic book professionals give to our competitions. Thank you Robby “RAW!” Melendez, Josh Sippie, and Nahuel Fanjul-Arguijo!

We also want to give a special shout out to the iAcademy School in the Philippines. We saw 7 submissions from students from this school alone, and they were all amazing! There is some serious talent at iAcademy and we can’t wait for the world to see what their comic book students are up to!

We are so honored to be able to read these scripts and give a platform for young comic book creators to share their work. We know that all the students involved in this competition have a serious career in comics in their future — as long as they stick with it they will make it.

Come back soon, we will crown our Grand Prize Winner on May 29!
