Webcomic Contest Winner Announced and Gallery Is Live

The Webcomic Contest has ended! A winner has been announced, and our webcomic gallery is now available for your viewing pleasure.

Thank you to everyone who participated in The Escapist's first ever Webcomic Contest! We had a massive turnout, and it was great to see so many different styles and genres of webcomics. Due to the variety of creativity and talent, we decided to make all of the webcomics available for your enjoyment in a 21 page gallery. The webcomics may differ in writing, drawing or illustration, but they've all got one thing in common: the amount of heart participants put in to making them! Take a look at our webcomic gallery, and enjoy!

And the Winner Is...

After going through over 350 webcomic submissions, we have come to a final decision on the winner. A hearty congratulations and the grand prize contract go to Decoy Doctorpus for their submission Out of Tens!

Additionally, there were also 17 entries that stuck out for our judges. Since we could only award one grand prize, we decided to give them "Honorable Mentions" and these webcomics have their own page in the gallery. The honorable mentions go to:
