In case you can't hear clearly, don't understand, or want a physical copy, I'm also posting the task and rules here.
TASK:
As a Writer-and-Artist pair, create a 5-page manga utilizing the story plot provided below.
RULES:
1.) You need to adapt the given plot. While creative deviations are great, please don't come up with something completely unrelated to the plot below. Both your additions and the given plot should flow seamlessly together to create a fluid story.
2.) You must do a bio and art for Juko, the main character, any characters from the plot below that you plan to use, and any other characters you wish to add. The more characters you create, the more work you have; please consider carefully how many characters to utilize.
3.) If you want, any OC's you already have for any other projects can be incorporated into the plot; but you must create bios and art for them as well.

Sorry for the delay! I had trouble submitting it to my gallery [link]

~JuuniLee Dec 4, 2012 Writer

Hi there,

We will be choosing the winners tomorrow Dec 5th, 2012 6pm EST. The winners will be posted in my journal. You guys made it really difficult for us but I think we have done a good job narrowing it down. The winners have not been selected yet as we are still deliberating even now. There were a lot of good entries. We are open to provide feedback at contestant’s request. Although depending on how many of you need feedback it might take me sometime to get back to everyone. Please check my page tomorrow for the winners.

Thank you all,

Juuni Lee
