Create a Comic Strip Competition

The results of the Create a Comic Strip Competition, run by ReadingZone in partnership with The Phoenix Comic, will be announced in February 2023.

The Create a Comic Strip Competition challenged Primary and Secondary students to make their own comic strips, supported with resources from The Phoenix and with videos by author, illustrator and comic creator Sarah McIntyre.


There are two categories for the competition: Primary (4-11 years) and Secondary (11-16 years), and some great prizes from The Phoenix! The competition will close on Monday 5th December 2022, with judging by The Phoenix team. The winners will be announced in January 2023.


This fun and creative challenge for children and young people at all levels of writing and drawing helps to build creative writing skills and to use illustration as part of their storytelling journeys.  The competition will launch again in Autumn 2023.
