Call-Out Issue 2: Super(heroes)

Have you ever worn your undies outside your pants so you could be just like Superman? Or perhaps, you’ve been saved before by your own knight-in-shining-leotard. We want to hear all about it in our second issue, ‘Super(heroes)’. Go wild and tell us what it means to you to be a Super(hero), whether that’s having the power of invisibility or perhaps being a good samaritan. We want the fantasies, the jokes, the dramatic and the bad. And as an added bonus, this issue gives you graphic designers out there the perfect opportunity to send us your super designs.

Remember every issue we have our regular columns, and we welcome all topics and creative works regardless of the theme. See below for more details:
