iVerse (http://www.iversecomics.com) has announced that its Comic
Reader software will be used to create comics for iPhone/iPod touch.
The company is also opening up for submissions from comic book
hopefuls as well as established pros. Comics adapted using the iVerse
Media software will be available in the Apple App Store.

“We have developed an extremely simple iPhone Application that allows
us to display comics that have been specifically formatted for the
iPhone/iPod touch,” says iVerse Media owner Michael Murphey. “What
we’re doing is creating new comics, and adapting existing comics into
a format that makes reading comic books an enjoyable and easy
experience on these devices. There’s no “zooming” or “pinching”
required. All you have to do is flick your finger.”

Comics adapted using the iVerse Media software will be available in
the App Store for as little as $.99. Some titles will be released
free of charge.

iVerse Media is currently discussing comic adaptions and new
creations from a variety of industry professionals and studios, and
as of today, is accepting submissions from new creators. Go to the
company’s web site for details.
