Comic Underground

Welcome to Comic Underground

Deep in beneath the surface of deviantART lies the heart of comics creation. At the Comic Underground, we strive to bring quality comics to the attention of deviants everywhere. We accept whatever path you choose to follow, whether you create Death Note manga, make detailed drawings of Marvel superheroes, or simply doodle incriminating four panel slides of your boss as an angry badger in your spare time. We are not elitist, and we gladly welcome new comic artists. If you like contests, challenges, features, and surprises, join the Underground today! I guarantee you will not have to take a British subway.

The types of art that we accept are:
Anything related to comics, including . . .
Comic Strips
Comic Book Style
Single Page Comics
Superheroes
Comic Book Fan Art and Fanfiction
Comic Book related Drawings and Sketches
Manga and Anime
Game Art, anything related any games, including . . .
RPG art (MMORPG, roleplaying, LARP, online RPG, RPG fanfiction, etc.)
Video game art
PC game art
Online game art
Board game art
Cartoons and Animation including:
Cartoon characters from TV, movies, etc.

Adult Content must follow all deviantART rules and will ONLY be placed in our FAVES collection.

Comic Character of the Month: Recurring CONTEST!
This Month's Characters
[It's a Group Thing!]

The Invisible Woman | Mr. Fantastic | The Human Torch | The Thing
[Sue Storm] [Reed Richards] [Johnny Storm] [Ben Grimm]

A poll with 10 different superhero and supervillain choices determines which character will be featured each month. The character(s) with the most votes wins.

Every month, members are encouraged to create art of any medium for a specific comic character. During the month, all art submitted to Comic Underground of the chosen character will be automatically entered into the contest. All you need to do is submit art into the gallery like you would any other piece into the gallery. If you want your previously submitted artwork or art that you don't want to be submitted to be entered into the contest, send a note to TheQueenofCups. You are allowed to submit as many entries into the contest as you want!

The winner of the Comic Character of the Month contest is judged by a poll. Any member of deviantART can vote for the submission they like best. The deviation with the most votes wins.

The winner of the contest will receive 10 deviant points and have their piece permanently showcased in the Featured folder! All the character art submitted will be featured in a new article and the Comic Character of the Month folder, and not just that of the winner!

Vote for May's new characters!

Don't forget to vote for the winner of January's 2011's Comic Character of the Month Contest!

Artist Spotlight

CHOSENBLOOD

CHOSENBLOOD is a comic artist who creates hauntingly beautiful macabre drawings using primarily pencil, pen, and paper. This Californian has an acute eye for detail and subtlety and prefers to make use of the simplicity of black and white coloring. Extraterrestrial creatures and anthropomorphic beings are common in CHOSENBLOOD's gallery, many of which are mythological entities or fan art. The heavy metal fan depicts figures with morbid sensibilities and carefully crafted features. If you like horror and science fiction with a creative edge, you should definitely check out CHOSENBLOOD's gallery!

... [about Artist Spotlight]

From time to time, we select one member to feature in this section. We include a selection of their work and a short description of them and their artistic style. They will also receive 10 deviant points and one work permanently displayed in the Featured section of our gallery!

DO NOT ASK TO BE FEATURED. If you do, we will not feature you. We choose an artist from the group based mostly on talent. Group activity is also a secondary factor.

A new artist will be chosen at random times.

The Contest

Directions: Submit your best comic strip to the Comic Strip Contest folder of the Comic Underground gallery. Entries will be judged on humor (for ones that are intended to be humorous), appearance, style, talent, and overall effect. Use any medium you want, and you may submit as many entries as you want!

The Rules

Any member of deviantART can join, not just members of Comic Underground!

You are allowed to use pre-existing artwork from your gallery.

You are allowed to stock photos and other resources, but scanning a comic from a newspaper does NOT count as your own art. Neither does scanning someone else's comic and editing it. Your art doesn't have to be new, but it MUST be original.

Entries MUST be submitted to the Comic Strips Contest folder, in a note to TheQueenofCups, or in a comment in the group. If you send a note or post a comment, you must include a link to your deviation and mention that you're entering it in the contest. If you submit your entry to the Comic Strips folder, it will NOT be submitted to the contest. There are 61+ pages of comics in that folder, and we can't go through all of them.

No nudity, sexism, racism, homophobia etc. are NOT allowed.

REMEMBER TO SUBMIT ALL ENTRIES TO THE COMIC STRIPS CONTEST FOLDER!

Back! Comics Strips Contest 4/21 Deadline!

Journal Entry: Mon Apr 9, 2012, 11:28 PM

Hello everyone!  This is TheQueenofCups!  I'm back from a hiatus from deviantART, and I hope that everyone had a happy holiday weekend!

The Comic Strips Contest now has a deadline.  All entries are due by April 21st.  I've answered some questions concerning the contest, and I'm happy to answer any more anyone might have.  I've also decided that all contestants will receive a small amount of deviantART points, whether they win or not!  So feel free to enter the contest if you haven't already.  You may enter old art even if it is in the Comic Underground gallery (if it's in the gallery, just send me a note, and I'll copy it to the Comic Strips Contest folder.  If you want to enter the contest, you can submit your entry directly to the Comic Strips Contest folder or send a note to me (you don't need to do both).  If you send a note, make sure you include the link to your comic strip.

The poll for December's Comic Character of the Month contest is still up, and it will stay up until April 10th.  No more Batgirl art is needed for the contest, but thanks to those who submitted.  Please take a moment to vote!

If you don't know what the Comic Character of the Month Contest is, it's a monthly art contest held by the group.  During the month, all art submitted to the gallery that features the character of the month is automatically entered in to the contest.  Please try to submit your Comic Character of the Month artwork to this folder because it makes it easier to find it. After a group vote, the chosen winner receives 10 deviantART points (it's 50 points this month!), and their piece is permanently placed in the featured section of the gallery as well as being part of a feature.  The feature includes all of the works submitted, not just the winner!

The next group event will be Marvel vs. DC.  It will be a contest where each participating member can choose to join either the Team Marvel  or Team DC.  A poll will then be put up with the choices Marvel or DC, and anyone could vote for their favorite.  All the members of the team that wins the poll will win prizes!  This will happen sometime after the Comic Strips contest ends.  So keep looking out for it!
