DC Comics announced today the ten entries in the first www.Zudacomics.com <http://www.Zudacomics.com> contest of the new year. The selected comics are diverse in both their subject matter and tone, spanning a wide variety of genres— from comedy to thrillers, to fantasy and science fiction. Each is the unique vision of an aspiring comics creator.

Fans and fellow creators are invited to vote for one of the ten comics to continue as a regular web comic on the site. Previous winners of the www.Zudacomics.com <http://www.Zudacomics.com> contest have been Pray for Death by Nicholas Doan and Daniele Serra and High Moon by David Gallaher and Steve Ellis.

The new Zudacomics.com contest features the following webcomics:

No one can put a face to the name, but the dread is real and overpowering. In Null City, surrealism is a way of life.
