Get your stars, angels and candy canes! This is the 2025 Christmas comic contest!
Weather your new to comics for have been doing them for decades, the Christmas comic contest is open to you!
Your comic can be about anything, your characters gathering for the season, a solder writing to his family, Santa on his way to give gifts to well behaved children every year, or whatever else fits your fancy! Comics have to be at least 5 pages, and can be as long as you want, no panel count. Ideally use PDF (You can make one in Google docs) This is a low-pressure contest, and the comic will be based off the story's contents rather than the art. One submission per person, get jolly and have some fun! I am the only judge, and I will try to stay as unbiased as possible! If you have any questions ask me and I will be there!
(Your comic can have adult themes and some subject matter, but when it's in, keep it clean/meaning. Like how 'It's a wonderful life' has death/suicide/abuse in it, but is done for the needs of the story. But if you're a new writer and aren't good at knowing what is and isn't allowed, the new subjects that are now allowed at all is [Cannibalism] [Graphic murder] [Rape] [Incest] [Pedophilia] [Graphic animal abuse] [Fetish content] [Nudity] --- If your unsure if the plot for your story is unfit for this contest, send me a friend request/message on discord at --- specialagentdalecooperfbi
(IMPORTANT NOTE: This is not an explicitly religious contest, what you do or don't believe does not matter. Your comic can be about your characters hanging out with a Christmas tree in the background, or full on about the birth of Jesus. It's up to you. But this is a CHRISTmas comic, not any other religious winter holiday (I might make a different contest for those things) but that's the rule, so no comics about Hanukkah, or otherwise. If you want a contest like that, contact me and I might make it if you ask before it gets too late!)

I am the only judge, by the way, as I don't want votes flooding in by randos, but I will try to be as far as possible, good story is valued over good art.
