Find out which of February's comic submissions won the latest Economist's Prize, who placed as a runner-up, and what we'd like you to submit to our comic page this month!
Slockins101 has won our Economist's prize for the third fourth I can't remembereth time, with their submission on Monarch's South African manhunt amusing our judge Lt_Wolf.

Slockins101 wins $100 million for his artwork, and he's also placed among our runner-ups too, which this month contains no fewer than six entries. Lt_Wolf seemed to enjoy February's comic selection, as he channeled his inner Anatoly Dyatov by describing the entries as "not terrible." Here are February's almost-winners, each of whom will receive $10 million per shortlisted entry.

- April Fools, the Easter Egg competition, and 420 are just around the corner. Why not draw the Easter Bunny passed out in an alleyway, someone using stinkbombs against a Shack, or a stoner trying to achieve the Spaced Out award?
- Don't forget to reference in-game events too. NSII are about to face JFK, TiredSaladlego just nuked six factions then self-fedded, and Evil-Duck is slowly losing his mind because he's poor. Draw these things!
- If you want a shot at winning the Economist's Prize, your comic needs to be entertaining. Try to find a unique insight into an aspect of Torn, rather than relying on basic memes or jokes for humour.
- Your comic should also be aesthetically pleasing, and what often lets people down is that their work isn't neat. We'll give you a pass for hand drawn comics, but digital entries really should be nice and clean in their design. A unique drawing style can be misinterpreted as messy if basic lines and text boxes are poorly drawn or laid out.
- Remember that you are allowed to use a small amount of artwork from other sources, so long as the majority of the comic is uniquely yours and you do not infringe anyone's copyrights. Chiobu's comics are a great example of how this can be done.
