Hello! Folks of Newgrounds, I’m late announcing this here, but better late than never! I present to you a passion project that is lucky to have its second volume in the making:
One Helluva Zine: A Helluva Boss Zine
And also:
A Happy Zine in Hell: A Hazbin Hotel Zine
Two zines under one management!
We’re looking for all sorts of collaborators! Illustrators, merch artists, cosplayers, writers, music producers, voice actors, 3D sculptures, animators, etc! If you can do any sort of creative work, we want you to apply!
While this is not a project hosted by Newgrounds specifically, I still thought posting about it here would be good for us to get some new and fresh talent. I love you guys, and I’d love to have you as part of my projects!
And what’s a fanzine, you may ask? Well, technically speaking Newgrounds used to be a fanzine, a Neo Geo one, but stuff has changed a lot since the 90s. This fanzine project is a self-published magazine full of art, cosplay, writing, and other forms of media made by fans for fans of Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss.
(Example of our first volume from 2022!)
This project is for all Hellaverse fans! We will be putting together two fan-made magazines for anyone to purchase in late Spring 2025.
The proceeds from these zines will be split between Doctors Without Borders and the Canadian Film Institute. This is a project for charity! All contributors will be compensated with their own copy of the zine they worked on and whatever merch we make too!
General Content Guidelines:
-Zine Rating 16+, E - T
You can expect themes from the shows to be present in these zines, such as violence, swearing, or sexually suggestive content, but nothing sexually explicit.
-You need to be 18+ to join in
While we understand the project is not inherently 18+ in nature, the show's target audience is 18+, and we would only like to work with adults on this project.
- PORTFOLIOS ARE A MUST
This is not an open collaboration project, these are the Collaborator Applications. Therefore a portfolio is required to showcase to us your very best work! A Google Drive folder with open access should work, but so do other forms of portfolios. Would your NGs gallery work as a portfolio? Sure, if you only have your very best works in your galleries, no shit posts, no memes or doodles. We currently have over 570+ applications to process, so we aren’t able to go digging around your galleries. Please make a Google Drive or a portfolio website with only your best works.
The rest of the guidelines are inside the respective forms! Read them carefully. We will reject applications that do not follow the guidelines.
(P.S. if you wanna apply as an animator/3D modeler/any other art form that doesn't fit in the other apps, fill the Misc Artist application form, most folks sleep on that one)
Here’s our website if you wanna look for us on other social media or wanna know more specific details about the project!
If you have any other questions or comments, be sure to DM me or comment below and I’ll do my best to answer everyone.
Applications Close Sunday
Good luck to everyone who applies and have fun! 😈💗
