Commix-A-Lot

Ever wish you could be an indy-paper cartoonist, but either didn’t have the writing or art skills? Well, Commix just might be the answer to your prayers. A variety of artists submit their illustrations for writers to mix into customized strips. It get’s even more interesting when other people remix your strips into, theoretically, better strips. Site visitors are encouraged to vote on the strips they read, and websites can embed a script into their pages that will syndicate the newest strip out to them for some instant, easy content.
As you’d expect with a project of this nature, the strip quality is a bit hit or miss, but there are a few gems to be found by scrolling through the entries. Budding writers should be stoked by the site, especially, since they have the opportunity to work with some big deal artists like Peter Kuper and Paul Hoppe.
