Summit or not Summit. That's the question

I put this in the whathever in your mind thread, but I think go serious about it and actually ask

I been asking myself if I should submit a comic book proyect to some publishers in english (Appart to summit it to some publishers in spanish). I'm seriously thinking in give it a try, but I'll need help for the translation part, I'm sure. And the dialog probably is going to sound flat if I try to write in english directly.

What do you think about it?

    Well, I can help with the translation if I have time, my English is pretty good most of the time.

    Also, small detail, I think the word you want to use is submit, not summit. Summit = cima, submit = presentar .__.

    And this is an example of why I'm asking!

    I think you should go ahead and try. You'll never know otherwise. The worst they can do is turn you down. You are a great artist though and deserve to be recognised. :)

    Thanks you.

    I was planning to translate it myself and have it QTesting for some people so my Word confusions and my horrible grammar can be spotted.

    Well, I may sound a bit stuck up here, but my English skills and mostly my ability to use words in ways that make people think and get interested are second to none... OK, maybe they're second to a few...

    My point is that I can turn any sentences that you translate into English into something pretty special, if you want my help.

    I would DEFINITELY buy a comic illustrated by you, though. You are a fantastic artist.

    Hey, just thought I'd point out that if what you want to submit is what you showed me, I'm pretty sure there would be copyright issues with that, and nobody would accept to publish something if they risk getting sued for it...

    Then I'll ask: What's about if I change the designs to... humans?

    I've seen them as humans, and I don't think that should be a problem. I think it could become more of a reference then, especially if they have a distinct enough personality.

    So, I'd say, if they're humans, then I think that would be fine.

    Judging from the discussion, are you talking about Soul?
