A new home for indie comics and manga

New Canon is a curated platform for indie comics and manga, open to every creator, big or small. We're building it now. Here's what's planned.

For readers

  • Every series reviewed. Each series will be checked before it goes up, so you're not digging through a pile of rushed uploads.
  • Try before you pay. Every series will have a free sample, usually the whole first chapter.
  • No ads. Just the comics.
  • Read anywhere. It will work in your browser on your phone or computer.

For creators

  • You own everything. Your characters, story, and art stay yours. Leave anytime and take it all with you.
  • Quality first. You'll apply with a few finished pages. Applications aren't open yet.
  • New Canon Spotlight. We'll feature series that deserve more readers. It's an editorial pick, never an ad, and never sold.
  • Founding Creators. We're hand-picking our first group. Join the list as a creator to hear first.

Tapas closes in March 2027. If your work lives there and you're looking for a new home, write to us at [email protected].
