Is this bundle curated?
This bundle is only lightly curated, which means we're checking for racist, transphobic, homophobic, misogynistic, or otherwise hateful content. We want to celebrate as many comic creators in Scotland as we can, so this bundle is not otherwise curated and your submission will only be rejected if the file quality
is unusually low.

What is the timeline?
Submissions are open until March 31st. If your comic is approved, you will hear back by April 30th. The bundle will go live in June!

I have another question.
This bundle is organised by Letty, Pj, and Eve. Email us or reply to this post (no DMs please!).

My advice to writers is to pick up the rocket launcher on level three, behind the hidden door in the yellow key room.

Scott Pilgrim EX review – is it time to grow up? A treat for nostalgia fans and completists, but there’s little new in this rehashing of a classic that feels like an add-on rather than a fully fledged adventure

My review of Scott Pilgrim EX for The Guardian - loved the combat, didn't love how the story was a whole lot of nothing 🎸

An illustration of a cat sat on top of a skull. There are potions and books and paper strewn around, and a knocked over bottle of ink with some little inky pawprints leading to the culprit.

If you're Scottish (or maybe from the north of England) you'll know who Oor Wullie and The Broons are as they celebrate their 90th birthday. I've drawn them a few times for licensing items and other odd things and it's always a cultural thrill.

Several reboots did nothing. Actually turning it off and leaving for a few minutes has at least given me tbe edit option back. Fingers crossed.

Oh good. New phone update has screwed my phone. Music player keeps crashing. Quick settings have reset to show a load of useless stuff. And the edit button gives me a blank screen.

I finished the 2nd Baltimore Omnibus - Baltimore and his friends try to stop the rise of the Red King. Reading Silvia Park's Luminous, which is great, reunified Korea, lost robots and people living alongside robots.

Weird times. Watching one video for interesting Paris fashion show yesterday and they included Billy Idol. Watched another today and their lead model was Marilyn Manson. What is it about the use of toxic masculinity in has been rock stars as the face of "avant" fashion?

Sad to see the Dome on the corner of Union street perish in the fire last night. It appeared in Stramash and the Crimson Devil a few times it hadn’t had neon advertising on it for decades but it was still a prominent view looking down the street.
