Calling all heroes, villains, and creative masterminds! The Letchworth Comic Con Art Competition is back, and bigger than ever! This is your chance to show off your comic book flair, and it’s completely free to enter. Whether you’re sketching an original character, reimagining a classic, or inventing a whole new world, we want to see your boldest, most dynamic A4 artwork.
Grab your pens, pencils, or tablets and bring your imagination to life on paper. Create your own hero, reinvent a legend, or design an entire comic universe, the choice is yours.
