SDCC | Scott Morse plans to draw 24 one-page comics at Comic-Con

The creator of ‘Soulwind’ will draw live on the show floor and then collect the stories in an anthology, ‘This Ink Runs Cold.’

Scott Morse, creator of Soulwind, Magic Pickle and more, has come up with a fun way to spend his time in San Diego — he’s going to draw one-page comics for an anthology called This Ink Runs Cold.

Morse will be at the Allen Spiegel Fine Arts booth (#4701) during the show, and earlier this month he started talking about the idea on social media. He asked for “simple” but “epic” stories from writers. “Like, the best thing you’ve ever written. In one page. Maybe less than 6 panels. Go.”

And he definitely heard back, receiving almost 150 submissions. He narrowed them down to 24, picking stories with a science fiction or crime theme. The final stories, along with some written by folks like Steve Niles and Brian Michael Bendis, will appear in the anthology that’ll be published by Allen Spiegel Fine Arts.

The writers he chose, along with the titles of the stories, include:

This sounds like a really fun project, and is the kind of thing that makes a convention like SDCC unique — getting to watch in person while an artist creates a story. I can’t wait to see the final product.
