[EDIT: An illustrator has been found. Thank you for those of you who reached out]

Looking for an illustrator for a variant cover for Sci-fi Graphic Novel Series.

JACKRABBIT is a retro-futuristic sci-fi graphic novel series, The Jetsons meets The Matrix, and I’m looking for an artist to create a variant cover that feels like a genuine 1940s to 1950s pulp science-fiction magazine cover.

I’m after something painted, dramatic, slightly lurid, and period-authentic, in the spirit of old Amazing Stories, Super Science Stories, Planet Stories, etc. (See attached images).

Not looking for modern comic art with a retro filter. I want it to feel like something that could actually have been sitting on a newsstand in 1952.

Book 1 was successfully funded on Kickstarter, and we’re currently targeting a January 2027 Kickstarter launch for Book 2. This cover will pay a competitive professional rate.

If interested, please post examples that match this style, along with your availability. Please only respond if your work genuinely fits the references and style above.

Absolutely no AI-generated artwork. Additionally, do yourself a favor and don’t reply to this post or email with an AI generated query. It will be ignored.

You can see the current visual direction for Book 2 here:

A retro-futuristic world. A long-missing father. A conspiracy that shatters everything a young inventor thought he knew.

As we ramp up production on Book Two, Jackrabbit Book One is now available for FREE for a limited time on GlobalComix.
