GET YOUR PORTFOLIO REVIEWED BY MARVEL'S EDITOR-IN-CHIEF

You will find a box at the editor’s table in our International Comic Artist area in our Comic Village for people to leave their portfolios in. These portfolios must be copies only — never originals — in A4 size, with a C.V./resume included after the cover, as page 1.

Each portfolio must be at least 12 pages and a maximum of 15 pages long (including your cover). Portfolios can be submitted by pencillers, inkers (if you are an inker, please also show the pencils you have inked), and colorists (if you are a colorist, please also include the black-and-white pages you have colored).

Each portfolio must have:

• A cover with an illustration
• Your full name or nom de plume
• Contact information (phone number and email)

In addition, every interior page must include the full name and contact information (phone number and email) of the creator, written at the top of each page.

Please be advised: we cannot guarantee that portfolios will be returned after the review session. An editor may decide to take one home or keep it for further consideration. By submitting your portfolio, you accept in advance that it may not be returned. This is why originals should never be included — only submit copies.

The portfolio review is free of charge, and anyone can submit a portfolio, regardless of education or experience. However, not everyone who submits will be invited to a private Portfolio Review meeting with C.B. Only those the editor believes are ready — or show potential to become professional artists — will be contacted via the contact details provided and invited to a private Portfolio Review meeting. If you are selected, you will be asked to show official government-issued identification (such as a driver’s license or passport) to confirm that you are the rightful owner of the selected portfolio and entitled to the meeting.

Each day of Comic Con, you will be able to leave your portfolio at the editor’s table until 14:00. At that time, the editor will pick up and review the portfolios and decide who to meet with.

At around 15:00, we will write the names of the selected participants on a whiteboard (or similar). The Portfolio Reviews will start at 15:30 and will run for approximately two hours, with each meeting lasting around 15 minutes.

If you are not on the list, feel free to ask for your portfolio. If possible, we will return it to you.
