I work for JJ Express Magazine - a non-profit children's magazine that uses comics to teach kids about social issues. It's run by awesome, passionate, and kind young people who are ready to make a difference in the world!
I'm on deviantart to see great artwork, help other artists, and recruit artists that I like to JJ Express Magazine.
If you want to submit to JJ Express Magazine, send your comic or three samples of your work to art@jjexpressmagazine.org
Cheers!

He's very pretty. See? See how pretty he is? He's very pretty. I'd like to run my fingers through his hair, and I'm just a voice. Anyway, without further ado, enjoy your crappy anime cartoon.

hey - no problem! I really like your style...As you probably know from my profile, I work with a children's magazine that uses comics to teach kids about social issues and I think our comics development committee would really like to include your style of work too. Would you be interested in working with us - trying out some comics or illustrating the few articles/stories we include in each issue? If you're interested - we can put you in a database of artists and we'll contact you if we get an assignment that fits with your style and you can decide whether or not you want to do it.
OR - you can come up with your own comic ideas and pitch them to us. Would you be interested? Thanks!

Please be sure to update me with information. I'd really like to do this, and I don't want to be kept in the dark about it. I'd love to help you out. :)

Hi,
Thanks for following up with us. As luck would have it, we just got out of an editor meeting so we have now made a couple of editorial decisions for the next couple of issues. The theme for the Winter 2009 issue is "Time: The 4th Dimension". We are envisioning the magazine to be literally a progression of time - starting from prehistoric to future. If you have any ideas, please let us know. Otherwise, we'll see if we come up with any ideas that call for your style of drawing.
Ideas are due no later than July 15th, 2009. To pitch an idea, email art@jjexpressmagazine.org the following
(1) Title
(2) Cast of characters (sketches and bios)
(3) Number of pages
(4) Brief story/plot line

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with. (The next couple of themes include country/city, gross things, and superheros.) Have fun!

hey - no problem! I was interested to see that you're taking a comic book class. As you probably know from my profile, I work with a children's magazine that uses comics to teach kids about social issues and we haven't had any fantasy/sci-fi comics yet. Would you be interested in working with us? If you're interested - we can put you in a database of artists and we'll contact you if we get an assignment that fits with your style and you can decide whether or not you want to do it.
