Submission Guidelines
Comics generally range from one to five pages. Because one goal of Candy or Medicine is to be accessible to all ages, comics must be appropriate for a general audience. Use popular comics as a general guideline for what is appropriate or inappropriate content (regarding language, violence, sex, etc). Nothing racist, sexist, homophobic, etc. will be considered. It is preferred that the work submitted to Candy or Medicine has not been previously published, but exceptions can be made. There are no themes to the issues.
Please send artwork as a high-resolution JPEG, PDF or similar file. The comic measures 4.25" X 5.5", so artwork must be proportional to that size.
