The MCM London Expo is now the home of the longstanding Eagle Awards (and yes, you can vote for Bleeding Cool there)

But with Fables co-creator Mark Buckingham, Danger Academy co-creator Tony Lee and Titan Publishng senior editor Steve White, they are launching a new competition to reward and recognise new British talent.

It's all being paid for by Universal Pictures, using it to promote Snow White And The Huntsman, and comic creators are called on to create a fully finished five page story in a dark fantasy setting.

Submissions will be taken throughout February, and two prizes will be given, one for writing and one for art and design. It's always possible someone may win both.

There doesn't seem to be any prize over and above the actual wining though. No four figure sum to take home, that kind of thing. But both winners will get free invites to the MCM London Expo, the Eagles awards and after party. Your work will be promoted heavily on the convention's site. And you will actually get an Eagle Award, something denied many.

Oh and you'll also end up featured in Bleeding Cool. There, you see, it's definitely worth it.
