CBR is bringing back Comic Book Idol - dumb name, cool idea:

COMIC BOOK IDOL seeks to find the next great artistic talent in comics. After a one-month submissions process, ten finalists will be selected to compete in a five-week contest. Each week, the contestants are given an assignment, which will be critiqued by some of comics’ top creative talents. Additionally, the submissions are judged by the public, who vote to determine which contestants will move on to the next round. Once the votes are in, two contestants will be voted off COMIC BOOK IDOL, and the process begins again until after five weeks, when there will be just two finalists remaining.

Good stuff.
