Judging and Prizes

Judges



What we're looking for

Plot: Depending your style (i.e. episodic or overarching), the complexity of your story is only as good as its execution.
Flow: Art, writing and paneling are the vehicle of your story, and fluidity will make your entry feel "wholesome" and not lopsided or awkward.
Characterization: There's more than keeping characters in character but growth with the situations they are put into.  There's also how well you utilize them that doesn't make then look like simple obstacles or fodder.
Interest: Introducing original, creative or clever elements will keep entries fresh every round and your story rolling without it stretching to the end.
Effort: Putting your time into your entry is easily seen and rewarded in the writing and art department, so planning ahead and prioritizing helps incredibly.

Each judge has their own criterion with different values, but following the above are the basic and essential elements of a good entry that will bring you far.  Do note that we will be providing critiques for every entry per round.
