“With convention season on pause due to the pandemic, it’s been important to us at Valiant to continue the outreach with both fans and creators alike that we would normally be able to do in person – and that includes one-on-one portfolio reviews with up-and-coming talent,” stated Heather. “Furthermore, we recognize that not every creator out there has the means or ability to travel to conventions, and it’s important to us to be as accessible as possible to those creators looking to get their feet in the door.“
Please remember to review all of the above information carefully before sending your submission. 10 people will be selected for each day of portfolio reviews. Valiant’s senior editors look forward to reviewing your work!
