Yes, we’ve reached out to artists whose work we’ve seen on the Internet before.

That’s how I hired kristaferanka, @bradshawdraws, diggys-daily, jakewyattriot, wscottforbes, caleatkinson and some people whose work you haven’t yet seen. And how karatemonkey hired kevinwada and some others.

This is how I got my job as well! It’s super true!

A reminder from some editors at Marvel that Babs, Kris, Kevin and I ALL got our jobs in comics by posting a bunch of dumb art on tumblr. Not to say that tumblr fanart should be anyone’s whole career plan, but it’s really worked out for a lot of people.

Which is either a hopeful story of opportunity or a sign of coming apocalypse.
