Zuda – What Does It Mean?

In a Press Release dated today, DC Comics announced the creation of Zudacomics.com, a new web comics imprint.

According to the release:

Quote:
The site is scheduled to launch this October and will feature multiple ongoing web comics. Following the site’s launch, the majority of the web comics will be selected by Zudacomics.com’ s visitors, who will vote on new web comics presented to them in periodic competitions. Winners of the competitions will receive commissions to create a year’s worth of their web comics for the site, and will have their work published in print formats as well.

The comics blogsphere, as well as the media in general, has been quick to react. Calling it everything from a "virtual slushpile" to a "webcomics reality show."

It appears that the model is aspiring webcomics creators can submit 8 panel webcomic ideas, and each month, starting in October, DC editorial will pick 10 entries and award them with a one-year contract to produce a full webcomic.

Many are viewing this as a way for DC to acquire intellectual properties, and answers to questions posed to DC to date have been vague in terms of IP ownership.
