Submission Guidelines Please read everything before submitting anything. Arledge Comics only accepts creator-owned story or series proposals from writer-artists or writer/artist teams. What we want to see What constitutes a good fit for Arledge Comics? Our library emphasizes inclusive titles to elevate marginalized creators, their stories, and their voices. Our readership ranges from early reader to teen/general audiences. So please keep your story ratings at or below a Teen+ Rating. We’re primarily interested in complete stories – should these be graphic novels, trade paperbacks, or compiled webcomics. Specifically: graphic novels, comic one-shots, collected editions such as trade paperbacks, webcomics not yet collected in print. We love Own Voices stories, and we’d be honored to help you tell your story. Our library is evolving, and we’d love to see your early reader and picture book proposals.
