Geek Syndicate
Imagine you have a comic that you’ve put a lot of work, life and soul into. You love it.You know others would to. You get into an elevator, maybe in a hotel at a convention. At the same time, in walks a wellknown editor. The doors close and you are alone. This is your chance - but you only have a short time to get your work noticed ... That’s the concept of Elevator Pitches. Provide us with a single sentence summarising your product and another explaining why we should pick it up. Follow this up with a preview and the pitch is done - let the work sell itself. If you would like to submit an entry for this section, email: [email protected].

What is The Monster Hunters?
“It’s what happens when you mix The Persuaders with Hammer Horror? Set in 1971, The Monster Hunters follows the adventures of ex-big game hunter and full time womaniser Roy Steel and Lorrimer Chesterfield, professor of occult studies at London’s London University. Together they keep the streets of Swinging London safe from vampires, werewolves and the country’s terrible scotch surplus. With jokes.”
