Image Comics is sponsoring a fun contest with Threadless (you know, the t-shirt company that steals all your money with their awesome products).

“The challenge is to create an amazing comic based off of Threadless designs,” says Lance Curran, the warehouse director and founder of Threadless Comics-On Tees. Their last contest winner, Ben Foot, created the comic above from the t-shirt design, “What Did I Ever Do to You?” by David Schwen.

“I’m obsessed with comics and I’ve always felt that designs on Threadless could make great comic characters,” Curran told Newsarama. “Lucky for us, Image Comics thought so too!” Contestants have 30 days to submit their entry at which time Image will choose the winner.

Besides recognition on the website, the winner will this prize pack of books:

Orc Stain Vol 1
The Fantastic Worlds of Frank Frazetta
Morning Glories Vol 1
Popgun Vol 4 (anthology)
Liquid City Vol 2 (anthology)
Phonogram Vol 1
The Nightly News
San Diego ComicCon 2010 Yearbook (art book)

The winner will also receive a $25 Threadless gift certificate. “Threadless has such a talented and inspiring community I knew this challenge would be full of win,” said Curran. “I’m always looking for ways to combine my love of comics with my love of Threadless.” You can enter now at Threadless.com.
