Editorial Contact
Publishers, creators and vendors wishing to contact the Comic Book Bin can do so easily. The Comic Book Bin publishes news from the comic book, the collectible, feature movies and the game industries. The Comic Book Bin reserves itself the right to modify submitted news releases or not publish them at all. Here are a few tips to increase the likelihood we will publish your news item.
Submitting News
Please include a contact name, a working email address, the publisher’s or vendor’s name and Web site if available. We prefer that news be submitted as attached Word or WordPerfect documents, even when the copy is within the email message. Avoid Adobe Acrobat files. Please be clear in your news release and separate different topics clearly. Please note that we do not publish advertisements but news.
Submitting Previews
Previews are news articles showing display images from upcoming products. The Comic Book Bin also publishes monthly solicitations from participating comic book publishers. Publishers may include Diamond Comics order codes in their previews’ copy.
Submitting Images With News and Previews
The Comic Book Bin prefers to receive images as jpg files as attachments within email messages. For large monthly solicitations (i.e., 70 Mb!), please include a link where we can download a single archive file. We prefer Zip files (.zip) rather than Stuff It (.sit) files. We use PC computers. Please remove all Macintosh fork information and always put the file extension after the filename.
Self-Serve News Posting
The Comic Book Bin offers a self-serve system allowing publishers and vendors to publish their news items directly on the site. News published with this system have greater chance of being posted on the site. Using our self-serve system is free and secure. Only editors can edit and post your articles on the site. Until articles are validated by an editor, they remain pending and do not appear on the site.
News are usually validated within a few days. Please continue to send regular press releases to the Comic Book Bin through email, even if you use our self-serve system. We suggest
strongly that you
use this system to post news, previews and press releases to The Comic Book Bin. To use this system, go to the Post Your News page.
Reviews
Although we publish articles about movies and games, The Comic Book Bin is foremost a Web site about comic books. We have an important section on action figures. We accept all comic books, action figures, movies and game for reviews. We provide reviews for all submitted material, but in no specific schedule. We prefer physical copies of goods to make reviews from and prioritize over digital comics.
Rights and Responsibilities
The Comic Book Bin is 100% independent. All opinions expressed in articles are those of their authors and not necessarily The Comic Book Bin’s. Paid articles are available to publishers and vendors. Clear warnings tell readers that vendors sponsor these articles. We remove Diamond Comics order codes from news releases. We remove all trademarks and copyright symbols such as ®, ©, ™ within submitted releases. The Comic Book Bin publishes A trademark and copyright notice at the bottom of each article page and indicates to visitors that all copyrights and trademarks are protected.
