Submit your Horror Comics today for 2016 Ghastly Award Consideration!


2016 Submissions are being accepted until Dec. 31, 2016!

Hello everyone! Can you believe it is already November? We’d like to remind all creators that you that you can submit your Horror Comic work throughout the entire calendar year for Ghastly Award Consideration. We are already less than 2 months away from the end of 2016 and we need your books for consideration!

So what can you submit? 
If your book came out in 2016 it is eligible to be submitted. It's that simple! We just have a few things that we want to make you aware of depending on what category your book falls into:

 Ongoing Titles: Please try to send us a full arc for consideration, title must have released more than 4 issues in the calendar year.
• Limited Series: The series needs to have ended in 2016, otherwise it is only considered for Creator Categories.
• One Shot: It's one and done, so send it in.
• Anthology: If it has 3 stories or more it will be considered for Anthology. We also consider titles that have a different story in each issue to be an anthology.
• OGN: If it has at least 52 pages and is self contained it will be considered.
• Archival: Is it a collection of material that was released prior to 2011? If so it will be considered.
• Short Story: All short stories in submitted Anthologies will be considered. You may also submit a short story that ran in a non-horror publication.
• Cover: All books submitted will be considered for Best Cover, but if you would like us to consider variants please send them to us as well.
• All Creator Categories: All Creators on all books submitted will be considered.

So how can you submit? 
All you need to do to submit your Horror Comics for consideration is send them to us at ga.submissions@gmail.com. We accept PDF, CBR and CBZ files. If you want to send hard copies you can, but the Judges are all over the United States and Canada. We just want to make it easier, and cheaper, for you.
