For students that are interested in comics and finding a cool, new internship, look no further than Vanquish Interactive.

 

The company’s first comic book, “Telikos Protocol,” was created by Jay Douglas and has been gaining rapid attention and fan base.  

 

Kickstarter.com described the comic book as “an explosive science fiction action-adventure comic.” Creators Nav Gupta and Jay Douglas worked hard to make “Telikos Protocol” a huge success. They broke records with their quick popularity and have already begun their new project called “Cycops,” which was introduced this summer.

 

Peter Cooper and Adam Burn are artists at deviantART. The two men met Vanquish Interactive writers and clicked so well that they decided to join forces to publish these works.  The comics are available in print and digital. The interactive print version teamed up with children’s charities and sponsors throughout their launches. The kick-start campaign broke 50,000 in just 30 days and as hoped, they were featured in Comic-Con in 2012 and 2013. At both events, they were greeted by dedicated fans dressed in costumes inspired by the comic.  

 

These artists are fast paced workers with strong initiative. They are looking for students that are interested in working as interns in social media. This is a fantastic group of people to work with and can provide students with a unique opportunity.
