City of Heroes Comic Book Contest

From the City of Heroes Web site:

NC Interactive, Inc. and Planetwide Media are pleased to announce the City of Heroes® / City of Villains® Comic Book Creator Contest!

Participants will be able to enter by submitting a four to eight-page comic book entry, utilizing featured super-powered hero and villain characters from their online game play, along with a collection of City of Heroes and City of Villains images, icons, symbols and artwork, created by the Planetwide Media’s Comic Book Creator™ software.

It sounds kind of fun! Marv Wolfman is even one of the judges. The contest started yesterday and goes through April 27, 2007.

The grand prize package includes a TON of stuff including a year of free play for City of Heroes/Villains, a special in-game character title, free Comic Book Creator program, fancy sound and graphic cards and more.
